My hair nightmare!! Anyone have a bag?

I have been going to my hairdresser for about 2 years now. She is fully aware of how we do my hair each and every time. I have never had any problems. I usually get it short in the back with layers in the front. I always leave it above my shoulders to put in a ponytail since I enjoy wearing them often. Then I enjoy the layers that hang down in the front. The other night she asked me and I told her I wanted the same. She suggested we layer it a little more in the back. I decribed a little like Rachels haircut in friends later in the show. We seemed to be on the same page. I told her what I wanted and she told me that was exactly what she would do. And even though the back will be a little different it would be nothing too drastic. WELL, she couldn't be more wrong. My hair is a horrible nightmare. It's really short in the back and longer in the front. The complete opposite then what I usually get. I CAN'T put it up in a ponytail. Any kind of style she put that night is no longer there. My hair has become totally unmanagable. I want to scream and cry. I want to go and cut off all of her hair for messing up mine while slapping her a few times. How could she think this would look good? She just got a promotion as art director that day. She should know better. I am so upset because I look so ugly! I feel ugly. And there is nothing I can do about it. I can't get my hair back. I don't have any options accept to let it grow but that feels like it could take forever. I don't even want to leave my house. I have never had this happen before and I have to tell you it's not fun. I'm just so upset by this hair nightmare. I want my hair back! NOW!

  1. oh no I'm so sorry! that happened to me once and I started crying in the chair. You can always do a wig while it grows out...and I would start going to another hair dresser. She might've just been having a bad day but that is no excuse!

  2. Oh, Winona!!! I feel so sorry for you. I am always scared everytime I go to a hairdresser here in England. I don't know, I am always feared that they won't understand me properly. I hope your hair grows back really fast. xx

  3. Oh I am so sorry! Do you trust her enough to try to fix it? At the least, she should give you a complementary blow out and show you how to style it until it grows out! Call her and tell her how unhappy you are and ask what they can do to make it right! Good luck!

  5. Oh no! Bad haircuts are the worst! I, too, agree with Stephanie. Give her a call and have her show you how to style it. Maybe it doesn't look as bad as you think. It could be just with the change. Either way, I hope you feel better about it soon and that it grows out quick! Love the picture of Arnold, by the way.

  6. Bonjour Winona,
    Oh so sorry to hear about your 'hair nightmare'. I've been there, but it will grow back faster than you think. Maybe you should go back and tell her how unhappy you are and she can show you how to deal with it so you'll be happy while it's growing back.

    I hope you've been getting smy comments, I've been having issues with Blogger deleting my comments and blogs I follow.

    Try to cheer up honey, and no you are NOT ugly, you're still a diva!!

  8. Many of us have been there sadly...That's the reason I cut,style my own hair...Go back to her and ask her to show you how to restyle it,let her know you are not happy...It will grow back,hang in there even if you have to use accessories to help you along.x.

  9. Thanks girls for all of your support. It helps. Much better then my clueless husband. He says it looks fine, but I don't think he gets it. He could care less either way..MEN!! Sometimes..I don't know who I'm more annoyed with. My hair or him..Anyway, I'm just so frustrated and all I can hope for is my hair grows really fast. But until then I have to be miserable...ugh..so frustrating..Makes me sick too for spending almost 75 bucks on it as well...It's really really bad...

  10. about 2 weeks ago my friend amy got a haircut and got sick. Yes she was suposed to come out to dinner and was "sick". I passed her house to bring her magazines and some Starbucks to cheer her up and she cried she admitted that she was so upset about her hair and not sick at all... so we were watching QVC another friend of ours came by and they had hair extension pieces that Jessica Simpson also wears. You have 30 days to return if you hate them so she ordered 2 differnt types and she looks great! I just called to tell her I was going to write about her...lol Good luck and hang in there..add some cute accessories hair bands from Target. Hugs Grace

  11. That is always so frustrating! Just remember - hair grows quickly and hopefully you will get it back to normal in no time!

  12. Oh, no! See this is what worries me: one of my two sils always cuts my hair. And if I hate it, how do I tell her?

    I hope that it grows out quickly!

  13. Oh no! Hang in there, it feels like forever but it WILL grow out! Mine was kind of the opposite. Recently the lady who cuts my hair talked me into getting some layers. It was fine to start with but as it got longer I had this odd longer layer at the bottom...several inches longer than the top. Like an odd mullett! Yuck. Luckily a couple of weeks ago I told her that I didnt want that bottom layer and she fixed it. So far so good.

    PS the pic of Arnold cracks me up...but it cant be THAT bad!

    To make yourself feel better go read the chapter in Ginger's book about when hubby #4324 talked her into chopping her hair off. Just watched Tight Spot last night (one of only 2 movies I can think of where she has short hair) and in some ways she pulls it off...but shes right I like her with long hair better!

  14. Oh no! I've had many a bad haircuts.

    Just 8 weeks ago I went in for my color/trim. She suggested I cut the front a bit to match the back--and she said that it wasn't that great of a difference.

    Um. I cried when I got home. It was awful.

    Thank God it's grown to where I can be happy. And this Saturday? I may let her trim it. I'm still undecided.

    {{hugs}} and I hope you find a way that you will love fixing it.

  15. Oh Winona I have SO been there. It is just the worst feeling, I know.
    Experiment with some cute clips & before you know it will grow a bit and you will be able to pull it back to get you through. This too shall pass sweetie and remember you are still beautiful!!!
    Many hugs...Tami

  16. Everyone has experienced a tragedy like that, I'm sure. I'm also one of them, eventhough I'm not so afraid of short hair, I have tried everything. But I know, there comes a time that the "BAD HAIR MONTH" comes along!Don't worry... the one certain thing is that they'll surely grow back. Also I'm sure that it can't be THAT bad.Once you'll get used to it and you start to experimenting you'll probably even like it.So, calm down, deep breaths and... patience.
