Very sad DD, new haircut please help!

My lovely DD had all her hair cut off yesterday. She's been thinking about it for ages so it wasn't a mad impulse.
She took a cute picture of an Anne Hathaway pixie cut with her. She also had some colour as she wanted to be blonder. She's very upset with how it looks and thinks is it is very middle aged and not pixie! I think she looks gorgeous but agree that the cut and colour isn't brilliant. It's so short though that we don't know how to change it...Are there any hairdressers out there who could advise? Can the cut be rescued without taking loads more off?? Please please help, I was so proud of her for being brave and going for a change and she's so upset.

For letting her stay off school and getting this sorted, as a mum - you rock! Flowers

The new cut is beautiful. Hooray.

Great cut, infinitely better than the last one. Mega mum points for you OP Flowers

PolovesTubbyCustard · 18/01/2016 16:32

Fantastic cut and colour. It looks a zillion times better.

DD happy with it?

Hope you are recompensed by the original hairdresser. They did a bad job.

HalfStar · 18/01/2016 16:32

That's gorgeous! Did the hairdresser say how often she will need trims?
Really cool, so pleased for her !

flashheartscanoe · 18/01/2016 16:32

She did such a good job! thanks so much everyone for all the advice and and support. I really didn't think cutting it again was a possibility but you all persuaded us. It actually looks how she wanted it in the first place.

Hooray - love it! The colour really works on her, gorgeous. Well done OP, DD and hairdresser 2!

Indecisivejo · 18/01/2016 16:33

Wow amazing what difference a good cut and colour can make it looks like a different person!
Looks so good and that colour is MUCH better than blonde anyway!

lavendersun · 18/01/2016 16:33

Indeed DrE, you are a lovely mum OP, and I speak from one with experience of a nasty teenage long to short haircut.

HalfStar · 18/01/2016 16:34

Half of mumsnet is off to get their hair chopped on the basis of this thread I bet Grin

flashheartscanoe · 18/01/2016 16:34

She's really pleased.
