Two weeks and three days ago, the unimaginable happened: My hair was butchered beyond belief.

I explained exactly what I wanted. I showed four excellent photos. Then I trusted, but that was a big mistake.

I was turned away from the mirror, and when she turned me around to see it, I was shocked. I had a faux hawk.

And it was so badly cut, with more lengths than I could count. There we two shaved areas. Some patches were about 1/4 of an inch and some were about an inch, and I'm talking about the short part. The long part was just weird. And ugly.

I had a party on day two of ugly haircut. I was so embarrassed. "Hi! Welcome! I'm Susan, and I didn't ask for this haircut!"

I looked like a pinhead with it down flat. I had to go see someone to even it out a bit, making this ugly mess my most expensive haircut ever. (That's Jack. It was his third birthday on day four of ugly haircut.)

It's only looked good once, when it dried under my bike helmet and got some waves.

I really dislike it. I miss my hair. I had it just how I wanted it and just needed a trim. The stylist told me that she was "meant" to do hair. I say she needs to go back to teaching high school. I want my hair back.

Oh my. One of the hardest things about having really short hair is when you get a bad hair cut. I totally understand.
But, you almost look like a "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" stand in with that hawk going on. Sorry, I don't think that helped at all.
Eek! I don't know you, our what your hair looked like before, but I think you look pixie chic. I always wished I had the guts to go super short.
