Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

I actually like the haircut. I've had similar cuts. And I don't think it's that far off from the picture. I think it's the color and highlights in the picture that make a huge difference. I would definitely ad some to your cut.

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

Awe I'm sorry you don't like your cut!
I think getting a few highlights could do wonders for the depth and it will be longer in no time!
I think headbands/scarfs and earrings could really perk up the look a lot!

Thanks! But honestly, my picture might not be "telling the whole story"... To me the girl in the picture has longer hair on the top and back of her head. See the blonde parts? They go from one side of her head to the other side almost down to her ear.

Mine is about an inch long.

Yeah...I know what you mean. Yours is shorter. But I still think it's nice and looks nice on you. But than again, I love shorter haircuts.
I just know when I've had cuts like this highlights make a huge difference. It ads some definition and brightens up the face. That's been "my" experience anyway.
Embrace it it will be longer and more manageable in no time.

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

I think the cut looks good!

Maybe add some highlights, that's what seems to really make your model picture pop. I'd also try giving it some oomph with spray wax. You can do a lot of fun things with your new 'do. Maybe after a week or so the shock will wear off and you'll really love it; it is very cute!

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

i really like the cut- its vry bohemian- chic - go with some bigger earrings like hangingones -
youll also have to now go heavier with makeup like eye makeup and mascara since this haircut features your beautiful face and skin

i really like it and i think it will grow on you
it may transform you as a person!

have fun with it- get a cool noew outfi to go with your do
i think youll learn to like it!

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

I've cried over a haircut before, just keep reminding yourself that it's only hair and it grows back! I would definitely get some drastic highlights put in though, just to break it up and make it look more youthful.

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

Whatever you do, don't cut your hair more...you'll regret it even more. I think the stylist went a little scissor happy but I think she gave you the cut that you asked for. IMO, that style just doesn't suit you. You have an adorable face, and I think this cut doesn't bring it out for some reason...maybe its the shape of your face. Your previous hairstyle was perfect I think. But we all like to change things around once in a while. Let it grow out a little bit and I promise you that in a couple of weeks you'll be much happier! I would just suggest growing out the top and keep on trimming the bottom...

I know you're upset but just leave it alone, let it grow out and it'll look perfect, you'll see

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

I think it looks very close to the picture.

It looks good. I like how it looks, but I like short hair. I really think it's that those styles are tricky. If you hair moves or is parted just a little differently, the style is ruined. maybe let the fronts grow a little and angle them. It might just be that you have to get used to it.

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

I don't know...it looks like she came pretty close to the picture.
I did the same thing in the winter...and my hairdresser did NOT want to do it, but I insissted. Then I hated it....it's grown out now and I love my hair again.
Sometimes, what's in your mind doesn't match the reality.

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

It will grow back and I think it will look cute (I think it looks fine now but you know what I mean). For my bangs etc I use Garnier Fructis styling wax...just a tiny bit, it really holds well, doesnt feel dirty.

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

I think it looks great you just need to learn how to style it

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

I think in 2 weeks it's going to look great

right now it's just alittle short

I know the feeling all to well- I once went from blonde back to my natural dark brown

for 2 weeks I would cry when I looked in the mirror

now- I wont even let anyone put 1 highlight in my hair- I love it dark- and can't imagine it ever being light again

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

OK, so first of all...I am a huge fan of short hair and I really like the cut.

If you need some time, I would try headbands and/or hair accessories (clips, bobby pins, etc).

Also..you can try flipping the front ends or sleeking it down with gel for a different look.

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

First I think you look really cute BUT I do feel your pain! I had my hair cut really short and with bangs in February and I'm just starting to like it now!! I cried too and it def sucks but time is pretty much the only thing that will help! GOOD LUCK!!

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

As someone with short hair, I really like the new style. Mine is almost the same style. I'm sorry you don't like it.

give it a few weeks to grow in and it'll look great. I think highlights would look great on you.

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

Your gonna think I am crazy but pre natal vitamins make your your hair grow REALLY FAST. My hair was down to my butt by time dd was born. Try them for 2 weeks and stay away from sex...LOL

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

In 2-3 weeks you'll be so happy. I have had short short hair a few times and know where you're coming from.

If you plan on going back to her/ him I would let them know that you were unhappy. I always let me stylist know - last time he cut my hair a little shorter on top. I let him know and he has been paying more attention to what I say when I come in.

Re: How do you deal with a new haircut you HATE?

it doesn't look like a bad haircut, just not the one you requested. It seems like the proportions are off, like the hair on top should be considerably longer and I'd bet that the hair in the inspiration picture is suppppper short in the back. Grow it out for a few weeks and then check it out, it might just be a matter of going to some other place and showing them the picture so they can cut the back shorter so when it grows in a bit more it'll be exactly like the picture.
