Tinkerbell

I took a leap today. A completely spontaneous one. One that I told myself I was absolutely NOT going to do. At least not until I had stewed over it for a while. And certainly not in the location it ended up being.

Now I can't go back. And I hate it. The only positive thing: hair grows back.

Craig's step-mom is a hairstylist. Perk, right? Usually it would be. I've been thinking about a 'pixie' cut for a while (by while, I mean a couple of days) but knew I didn't want to go to her for the cut. You see, I only get my hair cut once a year - if that - because I never like the way it's cut. Too floofy at the ends, too long, uneven length, bangs too short, too many layers; I wish she would just do what I tell her to do and leave the rest the heck alone. I went this morning for a trim. Long story short, I got my hair chopped. And it's not a pixie cut like I wanted. I want to crawl into a hole for the next 8 months until it grows back.

I'll post a picture when I'm feeling a bit better about it. And once I pay a real stylist to fix this disaster that is my head.

Oh no! I'm sorry! I've had bad hair cuts or colours done so I can totally relate. I'm sure it's not as bad as you think. I'm exactly like you, very picky about how my hair is cut. I finally found a good hairdresser that I love. Actually, she's the 2nd one. My other one was in Mississauga and it was too far to go to get a haircut once I moved here. Anyways, she knows what I would like and always does a good job. Expensive, but well worth not hating my hair everytime it gets done. I can't wait to see the picture. You've got such a pretty face and a short hair cut will really show it off.

Oh Michelle, I'm sure it's not that bad. And, I'm also sure it will be different when you get a chance to wash it and do it differently. Even if you do hate it, If there really isn't any hope, see if you can find anyone who has short hair and swears by their stylist. You'd be SURPRISED what an incredible job they will do...someone who specializes in short hair.
BTW - I'd love to see it, as an objective bystander.

Damn, so sorry to hear about the bad cut. I don't get mine cut shortish any more, because there almost always is something I don't like about the cut. At least when it's long, I can wear a ponytail.
