so i sat down and asked this total stranger what she honestly thought of my hair. she was polite enough to ask what i didn't like about it and she agreed. in the end, we both agreed that it now took the form of a mushroom.
so as i was b!tching to her about my hair and playing with my hair (looking for ways to make it better), another stylist past by and made a comment. so the girl told me i should ask him if he could fix it. so i did and he looked at my hair and told me what the problem is. it wasn't b/c my hair is so thick like the other stylist claimed. it was b/c the shortest layer was too short. it should have been close to the middle of my head. but instead it was near the crown! the other stylist just didn't want to admit she made a mistake!
his advice was to flat iron it straight until it grows back to where it should have been in the first place and then he'll trim the bottom. and he just fixed whatever else need fixing.
so now i just have to stop looking at it and let it grow. i guess it looks ok. thanks to that guy!
Jeez, I hate stylists like that! And I don't like the ones who don't want to listen to you because they think they know better either. I didn't go back to get my hair fixed, but I ended up buying a straightening iron and had to use that every day till it grew out. It sucked. I hope you got that guy's name so that you can make sure to book him when you go in for your next cut!
