HAIRSTYLE SURVEY: Sign in here if you've got a graduated bob!

[JodieHarsh]

Humour me, people.

TWICE NOW I Have gone to the hairdressers and said: "I want shoulder length hair with some layers in."

BOTH TIMES they have very carefully cut the two sections of my hair at the front to the shoulders, in two long straight unlayered bits, gradually cutting it shorter in layer towards the back. It looks a bit like this.

I met 2 of my sisters this weekend. I haven't seen them in months. They both had exactly the same haircut.]

Then we went to a party and I swear down, about 1 in 3 women had the fucking thing.

What's going on? Is there a bet between all hairdressers everywhere to do this to people? (It is quite a nice cut, I'll give you that, but one less suited to Jodie 'egg stained floral dress and ropes of battered beads' Harsh is difficult to imagine).

Are all hairdressing schools now teaching one cut?

Have you got it? Did you ask for it? Do we need a revolution? Is the graduated bob the Tahrir Square of hairstyling?

No. I have shoulder length hair with some layers in though I've had my share of graduated bobs in my time.

If your hairdresser's done this twice after specific requests for something else, I'd suggest they are a bit hard of thinking, and probably shouldn't be allowed in charge of sharp scissors.

DAMNIT, so it is possible to have JUST SOME DAMNED LAYERS

It was TWO hairdressers! That's the thing!

Ha! That's crazy

You need to take in some diagrams next time- a pic of a bob with a red X through it/ BIG SAD FACE

and a pic of a shoulder length cut with a green tick/ BIG SMILEY HAPPY FACE

and a huge fuck off arrow to point to the second one throughout
