QuoteReplyTopic: Bad short cut Posted: December 05 2006 at 5:03am
Dont feel discouraged! I once had my hair cut like that,and in a mere matter of months (3-6) it was long enough to be cut back into a bob again. Hair that is that short grows quickly,so if you just hang in there,your dislike wont last that long. Just get a trim when it starts to grow out so that the shorter layers are left alone and the longer ones trimmed so that it will even out or be bob like again. Take biotin vitamin supplements (I did,and I swear my hair grew so fast)
Meanwhile,get some barrettes for days you dont feel like blowdrying or a headband. (maybe a pretty one with gems on it) It really doesnt look bad on you though...and in a year or so when you look back at pictures,you will probably think that as well.
Wassup Abby. Ithink the hair cut looks really good on you. Actually that's one of the best hairstyles i've seen anyone with. I should tell my girlfriend to get to same hairstyle as you.

Hey, Abby, you're a cutie no matter. I'm sorry that you got a bad cut, but live and learn. My wife has not darkened a salon door for over 5 years, and it is stories such as yours which are responsible for this. Your hair will look good soon, I'm sure. Blessings, Bob

The thing is, nobody in my family does their hair. Everyone has boring flat hair, either one length long hair or one length medium hair. I seem to be the only one that plays and experiments with her hair (cuts and color)... at a price of course! I don't really like one length hair because of my hair type, and it makes me look fatter. I need layers, and I don't mind them as long as they are cut the right way. In 15 years I've had two (three at the most) GREAT haircuts I loved. The rest have been aweful. How's that for bad luck? Once a trusted hairstylist was unable to recreate the same haircut, I had to switch...
I'm looking for a great, experienced hairstylist in the central florida area... if anyone can recommend someone, let me know. Thanks in advance!
If anyone can recommend a good hair stylist in Florida I will really appreciate it!!!
Florida is a big state. :-) Your best bet is to ask for referrals from friends or just someone you see whose hair you like. If they have a similar hair type as you, all the better. People are usually very flattered if you go up to them and say - hey, great hair, who's your stylist?

LOL! A lot of people seem to like this haircut, but I would prefer it longer because of my hair type. It's wavy, so it shrinks and gets frizzy. If I had naturally straight hair I wouldn't mind it at all. When it's salon styled it sure looks great. Unfortunately this cut isn't at-home-styling friendly.
Hair either MAKES you or BREAKS you.

Thanks for the advise. I think you're right. At this point there isn't anything I can do. I was thinking of getting it fixed with another haircut, but that's only going to make it shorter. I'm very afraid of haircutters - AGAIN! I'm just going to play with hair accesories and products... what else can I do...
I agree with Hal. You look very pretty with this haircut. But I afraid you don’t have lots of choices, you have to style your hair every time you wash it. I have wavy hair and inverted bob, and I have to blow dry my hair every time I wash it in order to get it straight. I also have to use an iron to get rid of some persisting waves. Several months ago I got too short cut with lots of layers. It was a nightmare, coz I could not style it at all. For several days I just wanted to go back and cut it to pixy. But somehow I realized that it will not solve my problem. Anyway, now I am back to my length that I am comfortable with.
So… If you don’t like your haircut (which it really good on you) I would sagest you to wait till your hair grow out. And as soon as you style your hair, I also sagest you to use heat protecting products. You also can try to play with hair accessories, but on my experience it is not a big help (at least for me).
I pretty sure this is not what you want to hear but your hair looks great. It's an upto date style that is sexy and trendy. If all the layers were even I think you would have pretty much a bob.
I know it may not be what you had hoped for and for that you should be upset but you could have got a cut you dind't like and looked bad. I guess what I'm saying is I like it!
Can you post a picture with your natural wave?

Well, I don't think my husband will approve of that. I can't go any shorter. I was thinking of using hair extensions, but I'm afraid that will damage my hair even more. The only good thing about this cut is that it got rid of some damaged hair...
Yeah, this is me. My eyes are really brown, not blue. I'm wearing color contacts here. Anyway, I think at this point all I can do is leave it alone and let it grow out. I really hate short layers in the back and longer layers on the sides and front. I wished the stylist had cut them all even. It would have made a difference. I don't think she considered my hair type. My hair doesn't style naturally like this, because it's got some wave, so if I don't blow dry/straighten it looks completely different. It's time consuming and that annoys me.
