What do you do...

[Dorothy39]

I can relate to "Bad Haircuts"~~~~

I really can't say how I got out of that "mad make over mess"~~

I just let my hair down, so to speak, ( didn't go for a haircut for nearly 2 years)~~~

Then, when I noticed a friend, or, even a stranger, with a hair style that appealed to me, I asked them who their hairdresser was.

A lot of the problem , at least with me, was communicating with them.

so, when I mentioned that I had been referred by so and so. , the hairdresser got a general idea of what I actually wanted. I also mentioned my past experiences ~~~ and kindly insisted that I be in control during the process~~~ My advice: Gently pull the reins in when you are sitting in that chair.

It hasn't happened to me in a long time. (Now, if I could just get the face to match the hair , I'd be all set)

wow, SO sorry. I can't really relate though because I have to thin my hair down, it poofs up and won't stop growing, want some?

[luvofallhorses]

I never get my hair cut any more. too many scissor happy people here. this one lady gave me a mullet and I was so pissed. I am a girl and you're not supposed to do that. I trim my own now.

That is why I have hair down to my waist, I don't trust anyone to touch it. I trim it myself, ok it isn't perfect but I know if I asked for a few inches off I'd be scalped! ...sorry about your hair, I hope you can do something with it.

FIND A NEW STYLIST!

Heh thanks. I'm just so bummed. Good things never last, eh? Dorothy, you're so right, but I always get too shy once I sit my bum into that chair. I don't have the guts to stop them mid-slice.

Argghhh. *tugs at hair* Eva, I'd take your hair in a heartbeat, LOL.

I would go back to the salon and complain and ask (nicely) that they fix it. Go to another stylist at the same salon. They shouldn't charge you for the "repair." Also, I hope you didn't tip him!
