Why hairdressers can't ever cut a fringe straight?

[user1490465531]

Just that really.
I have a fringe which is a must because I have a big forehead.
But every hairdresser I go to even my regular hairdresser cuts it uneven and I have to try to even it out at home.
I do have a cowslick at the front which makes it harder but I do explain this to the hairdresser before we start.
Really wish I could do without a fringe but I look horrible without one.
I know it's trivial in the grand scheme of things but it always ruins my haircut and I dread getting it cut.
AIBU in thinking it's only me as when I look around everyone else has super straight fringes.

Never trust a hairdresser with your fringe.

Sadly with the amount of bad haircuts I've had I wold say good hairdressers are few and far between.
Even my regular hairdresser sometimes he cuts my hair good, sometimes bad never consistent.

Me and my sister use the same hairdresser and both have blunt fringes. Our hairdresser is a bit hit and miss. We call it 'fringe roulette'

I actually prefer that 'shitty inverted bob' to that awful Meg Ryan haircut. That's a far more 'mum' haircut to me and looks hideously dated. In fact my mum had it in the 80's, so it's probably rolled back round into fashion and I'm behind the curve.

Your posts made me smile halfwitpicker and AnneWiddecombesHandbag. I'm going to cut my fringe myself from now on.

My advice- if you don’t like what your hairdresser has done don’t go back to the same person again. I’ve been hairdressing for 19 years and believe me when you’re working in a salon it’s so important that you build up a regular clientele. Also just to add that there’s a way to speak to anyone with general courtesy whether they are a hairdresser or a brain surgeon and in my experience if you’re rude and obnoxious you are far less likely to get what you want. Maybe I sound slightly defensive but I can’t help feeling that there are a few clients who like to give this impression of superiority from the outset. Of course as a professional you just smile, be extra polite, try to please and give the client what they want....... then head to the staff room and have a cup of tea .

Same here! A Cowlick is a curse! And I recently read bangs are not on their exam not sure how true that is so don’t quote me. I had to show my last hairdresser how to dry bangs with a cowlick like seriously it’s on YouTube . And changing hairdressers! I’ve gone through 7! Since my last one died who knew what she was doing. I had been going to her for 8 years god rest her soul. I’m at the point I’m about to go through cosmetology school I’m so fed up. It’s like there’s no pride taken in their work. They get it too dark (like 5 shades too dark), too light , gray, splotchy, too short , bangs wonky. That’ll be $200 plus 20% tip have a nice day. Not let’s try to fix this. I’m a reasonable person but come on! So frustrated.
