OK, so I wanted to get layers cut in my hair that was about 4 inches below my bra strap, but only one legnth. I rushed and made an appointment at just a cheep salon at the mall cause it wasn`t like it was gonna be hard to cut layers in hair, and I wanted to get it done before my dance. So I tell the girl I want to keep my length but get layers, and she seemed to not think this was possible. She said it would be a little shorter with layers and gave some dumb explaination of why it had to be. But she said it would not be much and that my hair needed a little trim to keep it healthy.
So she started to cut and the layers weren`t loking too bad, although some of them were a lot shorter than expected. I saw them getting pretty short, but I figured she knew what she was doing and I wanted it to look a little different, that was the point, so I didn`t say anything. I was nervous then when I realized that she seemed to be cutting the ends off a lot shorter than I expected, even shorter than what she told ne she wanted to do. So finally I asked her and she said she was just getting done and that I should trust her it would look great.
Well after taking a very long time cutting, she put my chair down and showed me the back it in the mirror. I nearly jumped out of my chair, although I figured something was wrong. My hair barely reached my shoulders while still kind of wet, and some of the layers were above chin legnth. It is OK, but I cant even think about putting it all up. And she cut way too much off. I havn`t had hair this short since I can remember. Oh well though, its not horrible, but whenm I say keep the legnth, and someone cuts 8 inches off, something is wrong.
