I've just had the worst haircut

The images I showed him and what he did.

He's cut it all round like a fucking page boy cut.

I told him I didn't like it and showed him the photos and that it's long at the front, it's passed the jaw!

I'm so upset. My hair was passed my shoulders and I've felt really horrible lately and wanted to feel better.

I feel so fucking ugly :(

He's talking out of his arse. You can have it layered/choppy and long at the front. I'm a trained stylist/ colourist and he hasn't done a good job. But it'll grow. Check out reviews of good salons or look/ask on local Facebook pages for good stylists.

Am I looking at the same pictures as everyone else?!

OP, I agree, it doesn't look anything like what you requested and seems a bit of a butcher job. Luckily it's just hair and will grow back (hopefully quickly). In the meantime, try pinning it up and gripping it to achieve a different style.

Ulysees · 05/03/2024 12:13

Yikes at your fringe 😳 He's obviously unqualified.

Whokilledrogerrabit · 05/03/2024 12:16

Sorry OP, I posted before I'd read any of your updates - just the first handful of replies.

I'm so pleased it's all sorted now and your new cut looks lovely!

Hairdresser was absolutely shocked, she asked if he was drunk!!

But she fixed it and I actually love it now.

She didn't have any appointments but she could see I was upset and she fixed it and didn't even charge me😭😭

If anyone's in South Manchester and want a lovely (and competent 😂) hairdresser go to Urban Angels in Didsbury!

Bloody beautiful cut now! I'm so glad you didn't listen to the 'just rub some wax through it' brigade on here, they were on the wind up or didn't scroll past the first pic
Enjoy your new hair- looks awesome

Ulysees · 05/03/2024 12:18

Phew! Much better.

AuntieMarys · 05/03/2024 12:18

I’m glad you got it sorted and are happy.

SirenSays · 05/03/2024 14:17

You were brave enough to say something and it was fixed and looks lovely. I love a happy ending!

Can't get over the balls on him letting you leave like that.

ChickFlickkss · 05/03/2024 14:18

I'm so glad you got it fixed but hoooly moly that was one bad haircut 🤣
It looked like my year 2 school photo after my brother decided he wanted to "play barbers" Looks fab now though.

I've not been to the hairdresser in 10+ years after the stylist decided what my very curly hair needed was short layers. Lots of them. It was too late by the time I realised. Naturally I thanked her, said I loved it and cried all the way home. Thankfully it was winter and my hat lived on my head for the best part of six months while growing out the abomination, only ever whipped off when I wanted to cheer anyone up.

Don't miss the haircut, but do miss being able to make people laugh just by taking my hat off

lambhotpot · 05/03/2024 14:37

Thats sooooooo much better i love it It's really nice.

SwedishEdith · 05/03/2024 15:26

Wow, great result. I know where that is so good to have a recommendation should I need it one day.

CactusMactus · 05/03/2024 15:55

I'm with you - it's bloody awful.

But we have ALL been there and survived....

43ontherocksporfavor · 05/03/2024 15:56

Oh that’s so chic OP! Well done and good on that hairdresser for fixing it for nowt! 👏🏻

HausofHolbein · 05/03/2024 16:08
