Haircuts always make me think of my favorite haircut, the mullet. Today even, a man was charging in my direction with a mullet. I feared for my life for a brief moment, but then I realized that he was just going to say hi to a "good buddy". If being faced in that situation & you're in front of a charging mullet, it's best to err on the side of caution then to be caught in the middle of a mullet mauling.

Anyway, here's a little ditty for you guys:

I'll tell ya something about hair. It doesn't grow fast enough...

Eh, whenever I happen to be frustrated with life on the day I get a haircut, I end up with a very low-maintenance 'do. Think Boot Camp on the sides and in the back, and a pile of short, stubby things on top. Whenever I plan to re-grow my hair out again, it goes all messy and scruffy everywhere except where it's supposed to be messy and scruffy. *laughs*...so, I'm left with a very...ventilated head, once again, just in time for college. Ah, well. Hair grows.

I wish I had a digital camera so I could post my 'new do'. DH loves it, which is shocking. I really like it. My stylist didn't give me the exact haircut that I posted and I am glad she didn't because I think this one 'fits' me better. The style is similar, but I don't have bangs. It did take her a long time to cut, I arrived at 3:30 and didn't leave till after 5. She would cut it, not like it and cut again. If I can get a digital to take a picture I will post it later. Thanks for all your input!!!!

It's a pretty darn good haircut for both the husband and wife to like it.

All I did was put some color in my hair. I put some light brown color over my highlights that were turning orange. Since my hair is a little darker than that, my hair is still highlighted a little and the orange is gone.

That was when my stylist styled it....now is a different story.

 

[tnkrbell]

Hi just found this post!!(Last I had looked I didnt have a response )
Believe Im so gald you didint cut bangs!! Ok so whats wrong why are you haveing trouble styling it?? If its like Im picturing take a round brush bring everything under and forward even the front (think cousin it!! lol )
ok when it is dry take whatever styling pomade or whatever she told you to use and finger it through your hair now putting it in the place you want it.

Serena-sounds much beter then orange!!

Joe-enjoy the easy hair!!!

Jeff-AGHHHH NOTHING worse then a mullet on a man (or woman for that matter) oh except maybe a baby mullet !!!!!!!!! lol lol lol

Nancy- It sounds as if you have gorgeous hair be happy you have it!! I would say the less you do with it the better curley hair looks!!

 

[Serena]

Tnk, absolutely! Orange is not one of my good colors. lol

Believe, if you don't figure it out soon, go back to the stylist and have her/him explain it again. The process and the products.

Nancy, I found out that letting my hair grow longer, makes it heavier and easier to handle.

Dying my hair today, getting it "styled" on Friday! I will keep you all posted.

 

[believe]

I spoke with my stylist Sunday, she attends the same church. I still can't get it correct. I am going to ask her to walk me through the steps.

The style is similar to the one in the picture. I have tried using a round brush, but a wave appears. My hair does have some natural wave, but can usually be straightened by blow drying. I am thinking that I am not using the brush correctly since the wave is closer to the roots than the ends. I am also frustrated with the ends on the layers, they aren't going under like I would like. I watched her fix my hair, paying close attention because I knew I would want to be able to duplicate it. I even asked questions. I really think it will take her sitting with me and helping me learn.

 

[Jeafl]

tnkrbell, I wish I lived closer to you, I'd let you have a go at my hair! I have a somewhat shorter version of the long-layered "Rachel" haircut from the early Friends episodes, but I can only get one side to turn out right. It looks great when my stylist does it, but I can't do the right side properly. I think I need to try soemthing new.

 

[tnkrbell]

Jeafl-Tell your stylist about the one side!! If your hair goes to one side (not parted in the middle) that will happen So tell her (I mean ask her ) to cut it to that side and maybe razor that side a little more!! When I had that style I used a huge (3 inch barell curling iron) to flip it but not curl it then I used a product called Messed up and finished with lamients speray!!

 

[BibbidiBobbidiBOO]

I have learned that THE hairbrush I use makes the most difference. I finally broke down and bought the $18 one just like the stylist uses on my cut(shoulder length). It is very wide, round and has lots of little bristles on one side, just the plastic kind on the other side. NOW my hair does JUST as it does for her ! She also showed me HOW to hold the brush and dryer when doing my left side(I'm a rightie). It makes sense and it works! Good luck to all the new "do's"!

 

[RitaZ.]

You know.... I saw this thread earlier today which reminded me to make an appointment for a cut/blow dry. I grabbed the phone to make the call, then something else distracted me (kid related). Then I totally forgot what I was supposed to do. Now I see this thread again and remembered what I was trying to do earlier....
