THANKS, DAVE!! I have the biggest, baddest, scariest naked forehead of anyone. But it's MY forehead, and I'm sticking with it!! (hey, I don't see a SNF smiley anywhere.......)

I've done it several times myself, cut it then grow it out again!
You probably don't need to spray it if that's the part of it you hate,
I have a fringe and I never put anything in it. Its not
sideswept, like the current style is, it just hangs, but I still think
I look a lot better with it, and I don't have to do anything with
it. Either way, you look great both ways so whatever you choose
will be great for you!

Update on the fringe: I'm growing it out again! LOL Yeah, I know...don't say it!
Actually, I really do like the fringe and I think it looks good on me, but I'm just not coping with having to use spray on it after going so long without using any styling products. Also, I had just gotten used to having the SNF (scary naked forehead) and now I really MISS it!
But it's OK, I'm just clipping it back the same way I used to and you can't tell I had it cut. And on the odd special occasion when I want to wear it down, I can do so much easier now that it's shorter.
Lesson that was learned: if you're not sure about doing something to your hair, do it and then you'll know if you like it or not. And then remember what you like and don't make the same mistake again!!!
Your hair looks great, Rini, despite that b***h! I've had them say crazy things, too.
It's an odd phenomenon that so many hairdressers find it acceptable to be rude when it wouldn't be tolerated in any other service areas. I haven't been to one in years. I only trust myself or my sister.

Nice job Rini! Looks great. And I like your idea to let DH handle the trimming. It works for me and DW. Never a horror story, that's for sure! (Not with *me* wielding the scissors, anyway! I *never* take too much off. lol) Blessings, Bob

Susan, thanks for the eyebrow compliment...hehe :)
tdouty...I'm pretty sure I can handle the fringe trims from now on and my husband will be handling the length trims from now on too. I really don't need hairdressers anymore and I'm really glad for that!
Thanks SF,horselover, sunsailing :D

I have to agree with every body else. I think it looks great too. Most people in business know that "the customer is always right" and you don't want to have an argument with the customer. What customer is going to want to come back thinking they'll be put down while sitting there in that chair? Jennifer hasn't gone to a hairdresser in many years. Do you have a special guy that could do it for you? I might not want to try to put them in initially either, but now that they're there, can he handle it next time? Then you're more in control.

You would look lovely no matter how your fringe was cut. Your color is wonderful. That stylist you had is exactly why I always stick to just one once I find a good one. So glad it turned out fine in the end.
Well, obviously there was just no way to make HER happy! She
doesn't want you to henna it, and she doesn't want you to stop hennaing
it either! (I can understand henna having a bad rep since so much
of it is that drugstore kind with all the metals in it, which
undoubtedly is not that great, but your BAQ stuff seems wonderful, so I
chalk her up to uneducated on the matter.)
The fringe looks great, and I like the shorter length of it on
you. You have really nice eyes and eyebrows which it enhances!
I'm sure you'll have no trouble maintaining it yourself.

So glad to hear you are happy with the end result (and your fringe looks great! On the other hand, I am sorry to hear that the process was so irritating, though. That stylist sure is terribly unprofessional. Is that how they teach stylists in cosmetology schools to be professional? If so, they oughta throw out the book and start over. For sure and without a doubt, "henna" is a dirty word in the salon because (from their depraved perspective), it "deprives" them of revenue derived from coloring clients' hair.

Hey thanks SK....c'mon....join me! You know you want to.....mwahahahah!!!
Sooooo tempting.....I am a bit tired of my forehead, and my style looks a bit, well, dated. For the record, though, I thought you looked great without fringe too - either way, it looks great.

Sugarcube...I got the emoticons/smilies from another long hair forum
babycheeks....yeah, she WAS weird....amongst other things!
Shary...thanks!
whhoiskad....you would think they'd be good at ppl skills wouldn't you? I've just always found them bitchy and snobby.
HFO...I should have asked her. I also should have asked her the name of the documentary and where/when she saw it. Now that would have been interesting.
Heratic...I know, but I'm never going back to another salon again...so it won't be an issue for me anymore.

Glad to hear that the fringe is working for you now, whether it's back or down.
