When I moved (states) my hairdresser wrote down what had to be done, and included her phone number. I went to a new place and told the girl the info. She said that it couldn't be done that way (first warning shot, ignored). I then pulled out my cell and dialed my old hairdresser, who chatted with the girl. The girl said she understood, and would follow the directions. When she was done, my hair was PURPLE! Oh my! I cried! Weeks later, I finally found someone who could help me out. Oh well, the story is funny now. Need a hat? Brow pencil?

Two days before my sister's wedding I had my brows waxed - they really needed them -- but I didn't want them that thin! There was nothing I could do, but be grateful it was 2 days and the redness had faded by the wedding. As for the hair - I need a trim, but can't quite make myself go get one. Perhaps the braid is the way to go.Pam in KChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11511327421280164296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-60775512921523862392013-07-17T00:44:46.556-04:002013-07-17T00:44:46.556-04:00Bonnie, your lovely personality has not changed be...Bonnie, your lovely personality has not changed because your hair is shorn.

It is fine and thin and I keep it short and layered and have it frosted for some body. A small curling iron can get me done pretty quick and I don't wash it every day, maybe every 3. I am too old to wear it long anymore. I find it so easy to take care of when its short. <br />Who knows,Bonnie,you may find that you like it.

I went through the very thin hair, so thin you could see my scalp all the way to the crown! Layers were my enemy then too, but they kept putting them back in. Now, my hair has gotten so thick, I begged my stylist to layer it, but she just did the ends, no real layers. Now that it has thickened and actually has some curl to it, it would be so nice to just have to fluff my hair in the morning...With the perfect bob, I have to dry it and use the curling iron, then tease it...yuk! We can agree, though, spend money on fabric and thread!!!

While she bragged how she 'taught' at a beauty school, she cut all my permed hair off! I was in tears when I left. The ironic part is my husband had Beverly too and she pretty much 'skun' (i.e. skinned) up the back of his head. He was not happy. I finally found someone local here in our small town who I can trust and she is reasonable. That would be my suggestion; find one person who gets to know what you like. Looking forward to quilt cam!

I feel your pain. After it grew out enough I went to a different place and told the lady what the last lady had done to me. She told me not to worry but it was going to be short when she was done to fix it. I told her to go for it that she couldn't possibly do worse than the lady before her.<br /><br />When she was done I actually felt like I could go out of the house without drawing laughter, so it is all good. My hair is super short, shorter than it's ever been but like you, I know it will grow out so I'm going to just live with it and let it grow. :DSamanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06783841817844988520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-79712321074991586332013-07-16T21:24:28.480-04:002013-07-16T21:24:28.480-04:00AHH, shucks.

I had near-waist length hair, am 'old' ;p so cut it myself just by pulling it back tight while wet using a pony tail band as close to the hair line in back as I could - I don't spend money on my hair either! It was "OK", fast-forward a year and a half, went to a 'chain' clip salon and ended up with layers too...just not exactly the way I had hoped they'd look and when I said the bangs were a bit too long still, instead of the nice feathery ones she first had she clipped them straight across. I can barely keep this hair clipped back with an alligator clip. Ah well, as you said, we know it'll grow back, and while it isn't 'horrible', it isn't exactly what I thought I'd get. Hope to make quilt camp tonight, but on vacation and may not :(<br />Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05454690665258566957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-27283521631046572442013-07-16T20:43:09.518-04:002013-07-16T20:43:09.518-04:00You have such a pretty face that the hair is only ...You have such a pretty face that the hair is only a frame for it. I'm sure you look pretty. A little hair blower and spray will help keep them up. Hair is like lipstick, it only looks good for the first hour of the day, it's downhill afterwards but a sunny smile and laugh lines around your eyes tell a story. Don't stress over it but definitely change either hairdresser or start wearing your glasses during the cut.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15146657888244661203noreply@blogger.com
