What do you do...

A fellow I chat with on Skype sometimes....his 30ish daughter had beautiful black hair down to her backside (or really close).

A stylist cut it SHORT.

Seh was devastated of course - but wouldn't even go out in public or to work until she got extensions put in!

She also had a lawyer going after them for the price of the extensions.

I thought - come on, she's a working business professional - this sounds pretty neurotic to me. Sueing over short hair - and not going out in public with it???

I think she overreacted. I am not downplaying her hurt - but I would expect lawyers to be involved if she had lost an arm....that WON'T grow back, for sure.

That happened to me last summer. I even took a picture of the hairstyle I wanted. The lady butchered my hair. She knew it was a bad cut, she tried blaming it on MY hair.

I cried and cried. There isn't much you can do. Thank God hair grows back.

I was long overdue for a trim and color and finally went on Saturday. I asked her not to cut it too short, as my husband prefers it long. Well, she got carried away and I almost died when I saw how short it was, with too many layers. It is still "long" by many standards, but I blame myself for not paying better attention to what she was doing. I'll go back to her, but I will NOT let her cut it this short again!!!

Good thing that hair grows, huh? It will repair itself in the end.

Sorry, I know how much that sucks! If you really hate it, maybe you could have someone else cut it- it would be shorter, but you could go for a better style. I got a terrible haircut one time so I tried to "fix it" myself and I ended up so upset! I went to another stylist and got it done shorter and I actually ended up loving it!

If you don't want it any shorter, it will grow...I'm sure you look nice either way.
