My wife's hairdresser did that for around 6 months. Then she announced she was quitting. Then passed away (she was 35 or so) a few weeks later. Sometimes it's excusable.

If someone’s doing this, they’re doing it for a reason. Obviously this person is struggling. It’s as excusable for them to prioritise their wellbeing just as it’s excusable for a client to drop them due to the instability.

I mean in some scenarios they're intentional scams just to take your money and never render services. Probably not then right?
