sewhappy Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I went to have about 4 inches trimmed today...I should have left when he seemed VERY happy to get me!! He said VERY enthusiasticly "Well lets cut some hair" If I did'nt like it I would be very angry. But seriously he cut approx 6".That reminds me of an old joke....but that would not be appropriate here;) When they started sweeping they said - Boy thats alotta hair. One girl said -"there's more in another pile here":P:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeri Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Getting my hair cut is very intimidating. Can sympathise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Awwww!! It will grow back. Anyway I'll bet the shorter cut looks better on you. My sister had long auburn hair down to her butt. She finally trimmed it to shoulder length and dang that gurl looks GREAT!!! That hair trim did everything to maker her look so much prettier (and younger) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nineva Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Yep, Shana, you are right. This is the first time since I was 19 that my hair has been short. I get so many compliments/comments on how great it looks and "took 10 years off". I love it. Sassy and fun. Now if I can just remember NOT to let it grow out again, which is what I do!! :D:D Remind me in four months to go get an inch taken off...:P:P:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quiltsinmotion Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I can so relate how come they [hair stylist ] double what you say ? we say 4 they take 6 or more good news is they say the only differences between a bad hair cut & a good hair cut is three days LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterfly Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Yea...do it now Nanc. I was scalped once. Seriously....scalped. That's how all my friends described me. In my head I kept saying...this is sassy, but no, I was scalped. Jess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oma Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I used to always cut my hair off when ever I got stressed. One time (when I was going through my divorce) I got it cut twice in one day during a 12 shift at the hospital. I had it cut on my lunch break then ask my supervisor to cover for me later that day while I went to a different hairstylist and had it cut even shorter. Basically...I had bangs and that was about it. I must be doing really good these days because my hair is midway down my back and I don't destroy it anymore. I prefer it long because I wear it pulled back or pulled up and it's so much easier for me. However, I am NOT a natural blonde by any stretch of the imagination so I still sit in the salon chair. This is how it usually looks from the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Linda S Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I had short hair for a while, but you have to keep going back to get it cut! I finally let it grow and it's to the point where I can pull it all back, put it all up, so it's out of my way. I may look a little older with long hair, but I don't really care.

Sandra Darlington Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 My hair is short and completely gray for years. My granddaughter (almost 5 years old) asked me why I have a boy's haircut. I just told her it is a grandmom hair cut and I like my hair short. Then she replied that she likes her hair long. We agreed that we would wear our hair the way we like it.

sharni Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 My granddaughter had never had her hair cut, only trimmed to even up the ends. On her 7th birthday this year she had 11 inches cut off and sent it to Locks of Love to be used in making a wig for someone with cancer. Her hair is still shoulder length and she says she intends to grow it out again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagecl Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I had a pixie hair cut when I was a little girl because my mom didn't want to mess around with 3 girls and long hair. :(Well, as soon as she allowed me to grow it out, it has never been shorter than shoulder length (usually longer)! :DI hated having short hair and still do hate it. I go once a year to get it cut to my shoulders. I am happy! Everyone needs to do what is right for them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mswings Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I have to have mine cut every 4 weeks because it grows soooo fast. I wear mine very short. There have been times I haven't liked the cut so much but it does grow out. To me, it isn't a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandra Darlington Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I'll see if I can post a picture of me and my granddaughter. This was in November 2009 when Nancy (daughter) and Layla (granddaughter) took me to tea for my 60th birthday. Just the "girls" went. BTW, we had a lovely time. I also need a haircut every 4 weeks.

Susanne.Hughes Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I am not really fussed, but ................ I had long hair because everyone used to say that you can do so much more with long hair. Well, I never did anything with it since I am a little challenged in the hair do department and I have better things to do with my time, so I had it cut. The long hair made me look and feel old. My husband would still like me to have long, golden locks but I keep telling him to get real - that time has long (long, long.....) gone many years ago and I cannot carry it off anymore. (They do get fanciful at times, don't they!) When I get it cut, I get a fair bit taken off and LIKE it! I can wash, dry and style in ten minutes, look professional and neat without any stress. I do like Oma's ponytail though and the Pixie cut really does suit you Sandra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Anderson Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I got my hair cut very short today. It's so hot here in Texas, and I'm so busy unpacking from a recent move it just works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitomi Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I was a licensed hairstylish and when I used to cut hair, I realized that if a person comes to you and ask for 1/2 inch cut off, even if you think it needs more, you should cut it 1/2 inch because that customer will never be happy, even if it looks better. So I learned to do what the customer asked for, unless we talked about it first. I like my hair short too. I had to cut it short for medical reasons and never grew it out ever since. When it was long, all I did was tie it up because it was too hot. At least now when it's short, it looks styled, but I do have to get it cut every 3 to 4 weeks. I usually cut my own hair and go to a salon overy 4 months to get styled right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
