I think it looks lovely, but you are right, it is NOT what you wanted!<br /><br />My horror story - I went to get my hair cut, I like my ends to be thinned out, because, well, because I like it that way. So I wanted my hair to be just thinned out and about 1-2cm taken off. The girl cut it blunt and she cut off around 4cm. I then stated the obvious - "I wanted this to be thinned out, not blunt". Then she fixed t - another 3cm gone. I never ever ever went back and was fuuuuuming. And when you are not happy, you won't go back even if they tell you it will be perfect next time. It's just too much hair to risk!<br /><br />xxMs Jelenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064833370986570461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-897793820774746634.post-20555049039799987362013-04-10T10:24:23.220+10:002013-04-10T10:24:23.220+10:00I think so many people have had bad experiences wi...I think so many people have had bad experiences with hairdressers! The two worst ones that I have had were when I was on holiday in Canberra I walked into a suburban hairdresser for just a wash and blow-dry. The shampoo was terrible - didn't get close to the hairline. And then the person that they had do the blow-dry was not a hairdresser at all, he seemed like the day 2 apprentice who sweeps the floor. His blowdrying technique was to limply hold my hair with a brush and wave the hairdryer at it. I have extremely thick, coarse frizzy hair that needs strong pulling and good heat. It got so bad I actually asked for the manager who came over and acted like I was some sort of serial whinger when I pointed out the mess my hair was. She finished it off herself looking like she had sucked a lemon - very uncomfortable. I walked out and promptly burst into tears lol.<br />And I had the worst haircut of my like about two years ago. The hairdresser said she would "thin out" my shoulder length hair. That ended up involving hacking out chunks that literally resulted in 10cm chunks sticking out at the crown. I looked like Kirsten Stewart from the movie The Runaways for about a year. And no I never complained, sigh...<br />Great post!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13588411265826697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-897793820774746634.post-59023125493857308202013-04-10T07:40:43.809+10:002013-04-10T07:40:43.809+10:00Haha...I want thinned out hair!

However I can totally understand your justified frustration at not getting what you asked for. It is also sooo rude that he didn't listen to what you were saying despite repeating yourself several times (which by the way, is also not ok). Whilst I don't have a total freak out story, I have had my fair share of experiences where the hair dresser just doesn't listen and simply suggests "what's in". I get sick of this as more often than not, "what in" just doesn't suit my face shape and I'm also not trying to be a clone.

My hairdresser is awesome if you would like her details but she is in Artarmon so that might be too much of a hike for you?<br /><br />My worst haircut was thanks to mum though it was my own fault. When i was in primary school I had a fringe. I was sick of having to get mum to cut it so often so asked her to cut it short...and she did exactly what i asked. She must have cut it so it was only 2cm long, but its curly so it prob bounced back to being about 1cm long. I pulled on it and pulled on it to try and speed up the growing process (it was school hols and school was due back the next day).

My hairdresser horror story is from back when I had bright pink streaks. I went to get the roots of the streaks bleached (not coloured, I do the colour at home with my own dye). I told the girl very clearly that I just wanted the streaks touched up, and she proceeded to bleach my ENTIRE HEAD. I was stupid though, I didn't notice what she was doing until it was too late and she'd already done half my hair. She then went on her hour long lunch break while the bleach was developing, so my head was burning and I couldn't get anyone's attention to wash it out. Afterwards, I had to walk through the shopping centre with an entire head of bleached white hair. I decided to never trust cheap chain budget brand hairdressers ever again.Rose (Every Little Polish)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03664905847851543075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-897793820774746634.post-87338816729774471062013-04-09T10:33:11.809+10:002013-04-09T10:33:11.809+10:00I adore your cut!

There are 2 times that I can remember being almost in tears. 1 was when I asked for long layers, to add shape to my medium length hair, and ended up with a semi mullet. Another was with a colourist when I wanted a few purple peek-a-boo highlights. She should have told me that she couldn't do it because I ended up having to go to her 3 times, ended up with various colours (orange, purple, pink, red, black, brown, blonde) and then had to go elsewhere to get the colour stripped entirely from my hair. Needless to say, I haven't coloured my hair in well over a year because now I'm terrified.

And you're right, at least I can go back and get more taken off as if it was the other way around I'd have to wait around for ages for it to grow.
