QuoteReplyTopic: Growing hair (Again *cries*) Posted: December 25 2005 at 7:45am
Oh my god oh my god oh my god I hate -HATE- HATE hair dressers...
I had 28inches of hair... wavy thick hair that fell down so nicely ;.; I went to get it cut to my shoulders so ill start getting used to the idea of cutting it(Because I have to join the darn army in a few months, israel demands that:p) So.. I tell my hairdresser to cut it to my shoulders and he starts cutting and cutting... then he pulls it back and tells me he is going to balance it a little and i'm like "Sure"... he leaves my hair and....
IT IS EYE LENGTH
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I can't BELIEVE he did that!! he keeps cutting like nothings wrong, by the time I actually say something all my hair is that length... then he goes on and says "It looks so good on you!"... and he does a little more balancing, I was rather shocked at the time, and I seriously wasn't capable of saying anything (Other than a few random insults, but that didn't do any good, my hair was lost).... I swear... by the time he was over I had this UGLY haircut of 3inches long ontop of my head and 1inches on the sides.. it looked weird (Leonardo-de-crap-e-o kind of weird)... I swear if my mom wasn't there I'd grab a razor and slice him to bitz...
I got home all pissed, and I hated it... So I shaved myself bald. Now... I have the army in a few months and won't be able to grow my hair again... But I'm planning on starting to grow it 5months before I finish the army.. after that I have around 8-7 months before I leave israel for university at england and I was wondering if its possible to get it to shoulder length during that time :(....
I hate hair dressers...

Aaaw that's terrible! Being forced into the army IMO is one of the most stupid things that still exist in today's society. Hope it all goes well for you.

the army isn't bothering me (I mean, sure its a delay of 2-2.5 years of growing hair but meh)...
Its the fact that I'm bald now that bothers me so 8(....
P.S.... I just found out I have a year, not a few months. Thats kinda good because I was hoping i'd go to wacken open air festival this year... I was wondering, how much hair can I grow(max... include any costs for extra materials please XD) during 8months? I'd like to headbang a lil there:<
Eight months will get you about 4 inches of hair. I'm sorry to hear about your horrible hairdresser experience. Your 28 inches of hair sounded so awesome.
It was the kind of hair that was like an afro while short but became really cool later:P...
I was so happy when it started dropping.... now I only have memories ;.;....
Hmm... 4inches, is there any extra care I can take to boost that? It's still good though:O ill dye it black and use flatiron and ill be able to headbang it:d

Demilich - I'm sorry to hear about what that demonic hair dresser did to
you! I hate that, when they have it how you want it and then those
famous last words..."I'm just going to clean it up" or "I'm just going to
give you a few layers..." AND THEN THEY SLAUGHTER YOUR HAIR. I too
joined this hair board after a similar (but much less devistating) hair
disaster. Everyone here is very friendly and supportive. I'm so glad I found
this place, where people care about hair as much as I do. Anyhow, hang
in there...we'll have your hair flying around in time for your music festival,
no doubt!
Don't let the man get you down ~ me

EDIT 2: Alright, i checked my hair length atm and its 1cm(got shaved 2 weeks ago to 0)... thats decent, I hope. i'll be checking every begining of a new month and post progress here! Also, looking at pictures from a few years ago I saw that my hair growing progress of a year or so(Might be less, not sure) was to my SHOULDERS.... thats fast, I think, and it gives me great hopes for reaching something semi-acceptable for the Wacken Open Air festival. Whatever my length will be, i'm going to dye it black and straighten it for the heck of it, since i'll probbably have to shave 4months later for the army... Unless I get a premmison to grow.

Now is a good time to write down your hair resolutions, including such things as haircare techniques that will help preserve the condition of your hair, plans for schedules on how often to visit salons and precisely what you'll ask for (to help you achieve your goals) -- what will it take to restore your hair to its natural color, or at least simulate it along the already-colored strands? Along with that, of course, is envisioning your goals, what you want your hair to be like, and given your hair's growth rate, when those goals can be achieved. What do you want your hair to be like in 2007, 2008, 2009? Try to figure out what can happen by then if all things that affect your goals are achieved, and do what you gotta do to get there. HTH.

Torrie, I agree with Dave. Write down your goals, check in to this forum regularly to get support, and above all, treat yourself well and kindly. You and your hair will be fine......

torrie....have you tried Colorfix? It is available at Sallys (in the US) and will remove dye from your hair without damaging it. It is not a bleach. I have read many excellent reviews about this product. It could be something worth looking in to.
25 inches as at 1st Nov 06
