To wonder why no one comments on my hair cuts?

Do you always comment if someone has a haircut/ colour?
If I notice, and generally I do, I always give a positive comment because 99% of the time, it is a nice cut/ colour/ blow dry / makes their hair look neater.

However, I have had up to six inches cut, well done highlights (if I say so myself) and not a word from anyone who I work with (mostly women) or friends I see regularly.
My last cut and colour was last week and I am not at work at the moment but see friends at the school gate etc and not one nice comment despite my glossy locks.
These are lovely friends- so not sure why.
I know I should not be fishing for compliments but I feel I give them so freely e.g "Great coat colour" and I do not get them.
I have noticed people give them to each other when one person has had a trim so wondering if it is me.

When I was at work it was exactly the same.

But who can know what I have not observed ? Confused

I notice mens cuts because of the fresh trim slap phase. I have to stop myself from smacking the back of their heads smile

@MoiraNotRuby what is the ‘fresh trim slap phase’?! Shock

There was a craze to admire your friends new (fresh) hair cut (trim) by slapping the back of their head. Affectionately like.

When I was about 18 My dad dropped me to the hairdressers with white blonde hair and picked me up with black hair and he didn't notice. Could be worse OP! Grin
