 I updated the picture cuz I had it re-cut and like it better now. (I only cut it cuz my nephew cut my hair while I was sleeping and I'm trying to grow out the short pieces on top of my head that he cut) |

I hope that if your mom gives you a hard time for cutting it shorter,
she also gave him a VERY hard time for cutting it while you were
sleeping! Lock your door at night when that one comes over!
The difference between your chin length bob and your collarbone length
avatar looks like about six months of growth, or around 3 inches, if
your hair grows at the average 1/2 inch per month. So, you should
be there again by summer if you don't trim it.

I'm so sorry that happened! My 4 year old nephew told me once that he would cut my hair while I was sleeping on their couch that night. (which is not normal behavior for him) I threatened him in an extremely serious tone that if he did that to me or anyone else, I would punish him in a way he would never forget. I also get seriously defensive when someone teases me by snipping a pair of scissors near my head. It's a nightmare.....
I agree with Susan. If you keep your hair healthy and don't trim, it should be back to your shoulders by summer.  ------------- sarah 40 inches did henna for the first time http://hairbraider.spaces.live.com - click here to go to My Hair Space

Thanks guys! Believe me,anything sharp is hidden when he is around now...but he also cut his own hair too,LOL. Lucky for him he is a boy so it doesnt matter much cuz he can just get it cut shorter. My hair has been growing quicker (or so it seems) since I stopped killing it with chemicals.So hopefully by summer it will be fine. And no,Susan,my mom didnt say a word about what my nephew had done but if he did it to her hair I bet she would! |

What is it about kids and scissors? My son cut his hair when he was 3 ( he is now 8), my daughter's hair when she was 2 and he was 4 ( he was five at that time). I put the scissors up, and My daughter climbed up to the upper cupboard and got them then preceded to cut her hair. This all happened in about two years time. My husband wanted to grow my daughter's hair out, but she cut it horizontally on the side. so I had to at least keep it framing her face for a little while to make it look better.This was when she was 2. This year she startd kindergarten with all one length right past her shoulders. She has a lot of new growth on her hairline that she decide she did not like, so she cut her bangs at school. I teach preschool, and I have heard so many stories about kids cutting their hair, or some one else's.

Actually...
That is a CUTE cut on you! I would reccommend adding a few layers not to far from the bottom to thin it out a bit.
I think it looks good on you!

Well, your story has been vaporized, Jules, but I think your bob looks terrific. I get the drift of the tale, though. Nephew *could* have chopped it at your scalp, so thank God for small favors! Kids are just curious, so maybe he wasn't being a brat at all.
I am sorry about your setback,as I think that your long hair will be among the most spectacular ever seen, given its thickness and texture. But your loss is only months, not years, at least! Happy growing, Bob

Thanks everyone.I'm getting more used to the look.Anyways,I needed it because I want my natural color to grow in healthy (I had been dyeing it blonde for years and it was pretty dried out) So I'm not that upset about it. My daughter also cut her own hair when she was 3,and she cut hers to the scalp.It took a whole year for it to look somewhat normal.She wore alot of sun hats then,LOL. I cant wait for my hair to grow out though.It will be the first time in like 12 years that it will all natural and long! |

Wow Julesy... based on some of the other horror stories retold within this Forum, your nephew might have a future as a typical stylist (who disregards the wishes of their clients).  Seriously though, sorry to hear about the unwanted haircut.  Just curious, how long do you want your hair to be? ------------- |

My son cuts his hair regularly (he's 7). Kids are so curious about
everything, they cut hair to see what happens. Cause and effect isn't
really paid attention to, until they're 10 or so. Or so the books/child psychs say. ------------- As fate would have it, my business is all about you. |
