bad hair cut!!

I have medium-thick, naturally wavy, auburn hair that was below my shoulders almost all one length. I wanted to make it a little more stylish and a girl-friend suggested I get it layered. SO-I did, but I think it looks more like a shag than evenly layered all over. It chops right off right below my chin line-and then flows down from there. I don't like it. I don't know aht I can do to fix it other than get my hair cut short. My husband likes my hair long but he's not too fond of this 80's- country singer hair do either. Any suggestions?
