It is true, Jena; you don't know my history and exactly why I said what I said. I do think the style makes her look more masculine. It's my opinion. However, that is not the sole reason for a woman to appear so, but this isn't the place to discuss all of that, as it's a hair board, and for brevity's sake, I stopped there.Jennifer Eve

Thank you, Diane!!! I absolutely love long hair, and I'm working on growing my fine hair mid back length. I think it takes patience and TLC to maintain long locks on any type of hair, whether it's thick and curly or fine and straight. It's nice to hear support for us fine haired ladies!Shell> Where did you get that information Mark?> It doesn't apply to me as I have thick long hair but> just because a woman has fine hair it doesn't limit> her to having long hair.
There is one fact: By your words, she is "quite masculine" simply by the absence of long hair. For someone who depends solely on hair to make a woman look feminine, you may be in for a heartbreaking, terrible shock one day if you ever lose yours to illness.

>You> butchered her, your a cold hearted butcher who took> away her femininity,So femininity is *only* about hair? What about the bald ladies in certain African tribes who seem perfectly capable of giving birth and nursing their babies?What if your wife or girlfriend had cancer and her treatment caused all her hair to fall out? Imagine how she'd feel if you said she lost her femininity.Your remarks are far more cold-hearted than anything Brian did.
>>He seemed to take pleasure in making her uglyBeauty is in the eye of the beholder. What if Genni were reading this board? Would you feel good knowing that she read words that said she is *ugly*!?

She wanted the cut. Does her opinion not matter, or should *you* decide how it should be cut?
> I think she now looks quite masculine.Oh, she does not. If it were up to me, I would have left more hair, but to say she looks "quite masculine" shows your absolute, complete bias and lack of good judgment. She has a pretty face and feminine body. Her hairstyle isn't perhaps the most feminine one but that certainly doesn't make her "masculine". Think!>Her long tresses> were especially beautiful, so thin and delicate.How about extremely stringy and extremely split? I personally would have gone for mid-back or just below shoulder-length, but the ends of her hair were *horrible*.

Brian,I think the response you got could be expected. You didn't post any the explanation that you just gave with your original post. This is a typical tactic of the short hair fanatics. They post short provactive messages designed to invoke controversy. Thus you message triggered this reaction. The girl very well may have been a willing participant in your endeavour, but obviously the main goal of your original post was to advertise your video. If we at the Hair Boutique had noticed your post earlier, we would have removed it for violating our policy against commercial posts. But since there has been lots of responses its too late to remove it now.Jeff HinesThe Hair Boutique
The main problem I have with Brian is the fact he seem to take pleasure in selling those pictures. It comes across a long hair cutting fetish.Yes I will also agree that there were more up to date hair styles that are shorter but longer than she has and she would have looked a lot nicer. Right now the styles makes her look a lot older.>

I find it unbelievable how cruel and rude people can be.This girl had only had her hair trimmed about once evey other year. Her hair was so frizzy and damaged that she had several split ends per hair shaft and they extended all the way up to her shoulders. I had only planned to cut her hair in a shoulder length bob. However, she had a picture of how she wanted her hair cut and I cut it exactly how she wanted. She absolutely loved it and so did I. I'm very sorry I even bothered to post my message here... Even though Karen has a lot of short hair styles in her Gallery, this is obviously a long hair board. I'll ask Karen to remove my post.Take care.

Ok, I'll agree with everyone here that this ain't the most attractive haircut I've ever seen and that there were plenty of iterations between where she started and where she ended up that would have been more flattering.Now, that said, I'll play Keanu Reeves (Devil's Advocate. Get it? Nevermind). She is smiling in the picture (though it may be forced) and he didn't exactly break in, tie her up, and forcibly cut her hair. How do you know she didn't like the result? She did choose to let Brian do it rather than go to a professional salon, so why crucify him?Again, I agree that the end result could have been much better, but that's not the area of outrage. Everyone is coming down on Brian for even cutting it in the first place. Assuming Jenni wanted it cut this short, how is that his fault?Just food for thought,JerkyFleaRelated Link:JerkyFlea's Celebrity Hair Spray
3 pm is simultaneously too late and too early to start anything.
What you have done is a horrendous act of personal vandalism that is the complete antithesis of the term makeover. Your actions are nothing other than malfeasance with scissors, to take pride in such a criminal act is beyond my comprehension.Don3
