I volunteered to be a 'model' in a swanky salon yesterday so the cut took a couple of hours to do. I said that I didn't mind what she did, I wanted it much shorter, easy to manage and something that actually suits me - or if she didn't want to take the risk a trim and some layers. She said that she's doing bobs at the moment and I thought OK, should be fine, I've had bobs in the past that have looked good.
Technically, I'm sure it's a very good cut, and it would look very sweet on a four year old or might suit a tory party candidate, but it looks bloody awful on me - sexless and totally the wrong look - and without washing and blow-drying daily with Products, I could never get it to sit straight, my hair's far too wavy. Not low-maintenance.
I got a haircut to make me feel better as I'd had some really bad news on Weds so I didn't dare say anything at the time as I knew I'd just start crying. I wondered if it was my mood that was the problem, not the haircut. It's not. I still think I might cry if I have to go back in there and explain. I don't know what would actually look good, I'd had long hair for such a long time my face has changed and so has fashion. I don't know how to find a good hairdresser or I would have gone to one in the first place. I don't look good in hats.
I feel shit
