My hair is too short

On the day of the traumatizing wreck, I was in the city for a focus group..it was a good one 250 in cash. You can't,t beat that with a stick! Anyway, prior to the group I got my hair cut I showed her how short I wanted it which to me looked to be about an inch. She insisted it was 3 inches. Now I look like I have half my hair cut off. Sigh..it'll grow back but without the weight of the longer hair the ends flip out and either need to be attended to or look stupid. Anyway, I will have to watch them like a hawk next time

I hate it when hair stylists don’t do what you ask. I haven’t technically had a hair cut in years and years. I get it trimmed by my bestie, who was a stylist wh had her own shop for years. My hair is long and I almost always wear it up. I have no desire for short hair, as I have very finely textured hair. And when it’s short, no matter what I do, it’s a true Afro. Just too many curls that constantly snarl!

I wish I had a hair cutting friend Some are brave enough to cut their own, but that isn't me

@snowy22315 She’s the best. She can always be counted on to trim it just how I want it. I know I am very fortunate that she does this for me.

Oh, I’ve been there. I was not a happy camper with my hair, and I never went back to her. Sometimes, you have no choice though.

@AmbiePam Thanks, beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess.

They never listen to what you ask, I hate when they cut too much.

I know the only saving grace is it will grow, and probably won't need to be cut so seen next time.

@snowy22315 - That is what I think every time it happens, the hair grows back.

This is no longer a nightmare for me as my hair is so long. Cutting off 1 or 3 inches wouldn't make much difference. I hope it grows back quickly for you.

I always wanted short hair, maybe even a pixie cut but my hair does not allow me too. But it is not nice when a stylist won't listen to what you said.

Hope it grows back quick enough not to need so much attention. I hate when that happens and you wind up with shorter hair than you wanted.

My Mom cuts mine for me and last time she did it she cut it way too short ….i couldn’t even tie it back. It has grown now fortunately. But now I have the opposite problem, it’s too long. As I can’t wash it myself at the moment The Mister washes it but I won’t let him cut it …..it is very thick and long….it also needs colouring which again us something my Mom does for me.

Congrats on the $250. I'm sorry your hair is so short. Hopefully it will grow fast.
