I hate my hair.

After having caught my hair in my mouth and/or food for the quintillionth time, I have decided that I hate my hair. It is always getting caught in my mouth, on my glasses, in my food, on my ring, in the car door, under me when I sleep, or numerous other things. I have attached a picture so you can see my hair. It is a tad wavy, greasy, and very thin. It has started to get horrendously greasy and ratty since I've been here in Louisiana. I am using Aussie and that seems to ease it a little bit. I want to cut it but I am not sure how to go about picking a hair cut. Am I the only one who dislikes her hair?

I like it, I love having blonde hair, except for being called a dumb blonde. But I am growing my hair out so I can't really change it right now!!! :eek: :D My hair gets really dry in the summer depending on what I use, I am using paul mitchill shapoo and tresemma(sp) conditioner.

I love my hair! I used to not like it because it's very very asian and so it's really silky and won't stay in a ponytail or bun. On the other hand, it looks greyt when it's permed (like it is now) :p Since my perm is growing out, I'm probably going to grow it really long and cut off the permed part and get red or blonde tips.

My hair is naturally really thin and used to get REALLY greasy like the way you're describing. You should try using Pantene Pro-V every day. It gets my hair "squeaky clean", hehe. From the picture you attached, your hair looks really nice!! I thought it looked full of body, actually :p

Ah, sounds awesome! Red tips on black hair are very nifty looking! :D

I will definitely try the Pantene as nothing worked so far (Aussie, Suave, VO5)! How long does it stay clean? I have a problem with it getting greasy about the middle of the day. Thank you for the tips and compliment! :D

I really couldn't vote! I typically do like my hair. But I needed it cut so I went and did that yesterday.... and now I'm practically bald and I could cry. She didn't do what I asked her for. Instead of long layers, its super short all over and long in the back --- it feels like a modified MULLET! :eek: I hate hate hate it.

Then last night I dyed it to cover the greys since the new cut really shows the greys that weren't as obvious when it was longer.... I tried out a new color. It turned reddish (fnnny, the box showed no hint of red). Now I feel like Ronald McDonald's wife. Waaaahhhhhhhhh

I didn't pick, but some days I love my hair, and some days I hate it. It's really boring, but it is REALLY soft, and all my friends love my hair. I'm actually going to get it cut this morning! :p I'll attach a pic....

First let me say I like your hair and if your thinking about cutting it how about maybe shoulder length. You could have it layered. I think that would look really nice. A girl I work with had hair similar to your and she did that and loves it and it looks great.
As for the greasy part, aside from washing it every day have you tried Neutrogena Anti-Residue Shampoo? I find this works really great to get out all the products I put on my hair that can weigh it down and make it look greasy. Good luck on finding a product that you like and finding the cut for you (I find just asking my hairdresser what she thinks is a good cut works great). Here's a nice site with lots of great hair styles...Beautiful Haircuts

Now as for the poll I didn't pic. I don't really "hate" my hair but definitely don't love it either. I wish I could grow it longer and it would look nice, but now it seems my hair has aged. It's so much different feeling than when I was younger....I'd love to have my "young" hair back:D

I think my hair is boring but all my friends love it. My hair is straight and jet black. I don't like ponytails so it is always down and in my face. lol It has always been that way. I want to grow it out to around my shoulder blades and then I think I will like it. I also have the greasy problem. I wash it one day and that very day it becomes greasy, but it's a soft greasty, not a dirty greasy so I'm ok with it.

I loved my hair before my surgery. Since the surgery it's been a nightmare. As my hair stylist advised it would be. I just don't know what to do with it/about it any more. It suddenly has a mind of it's own, won't do what I want, and unless I use the ultra heavy conditioning shampoo/conditioner it flys everywhere.

My hair is okay I don't hate it it just gets really poofy after it dries from getting washed. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I love my hair I have coloured it a few times tho Blong high lights,red high lights black for a week but now im gona colour my hair Black for a month I think its called a colour perm or somthen I like black hair my dad has it black but not me I got Dirty blond lol. :p

Maybe colouring my hair black may also give me more of a metal punk head.hehehe but no perircings.

Im so tired of having long hair. Its almost to my bottom now and its thin and strandy. I have alot of hair its just very fine.
When I eat it gets into my food, when I sit back it gets pulled, when I sleep it gets pulled, I wake up and its a notty mess, dogs tromple on it when I am sleeping, its just a pain.
I really want to have 6 inches cut and give it to Lockes of love. I will still have fairly long hair after that.

So yeah I feel ya!

My hair has basically been the same 'style' for a couple of years. I like it, sometimes, but I'd like a change. I've tried growing it out a couple of times and get frustrated because it just won't grow, so I chop it off again. I guess it works for now.

My hair has changed many times in my life, all on its own. When I was little, it was strawberry blonde and curly.

When I was 4 1/2, it turned brown, and was stick-straight.

In high school, it was straight, but a little wavy once it got past my shoulders.

It has always gotten blonder streaks in the summer if I get any sun.

It has always had plenty of "body" and a will of its own. It is now wavy, but if I want it straight, I just have to take 20 minutes to blow it dry. And on special occasions, if I bother with a curling iron, it holds a curl pretty well.

Every hairdresser I have ever used has told be I am lucky, because I have a lot of hair, but it is fine in texture (a.k.a. "slippy hair" - I need to redo a ponytail several times during the day). I do, however, have the Peterson family cowlicks, so the hair on the back of my head will never be shorter than 4 inches long, or it would stick straight up, right, Lady's Human? (He goes the opposite - keeps it short enough so you can't tell.)
