Thank you MNers, I have just cut my own hair and it looks

[JackBauer]

frigging awesome!

I used a method from this thread and then something similar to trim the back.
I did have same length below shoulder hair and now it is all layered and light and pretty.
And it took 10 minutes in the kitchen with a brush, hairband and some scissors!

Waits patiently for MamaG pics.

Over here sms

Yes but there are still no pipcs!

I have Pointed It Out to Mr S, who "thought it looked a bit fluffier."

JA=ack....OMG I never thought of that!!! Should I change my name?
I chose it cos I have fostered, adopted and had natural children, this is a parenting forum??

I am really impressed - must try this!

I've cut my own hair for many many years - just don't like hairdressers (tho' I'm sure they are all lovely as individuals!), the trendiness makes me nervous. And I can't justify the cost. But my limit is getting it more or less (on a good day) the same length with a few wifty bits at the front.

Sometimes it takes me a couple of weeks to find the time to get it all the same length!

Have washed mine once since sat and it looks good I have it up today and it even looks better up than it did before.it is just the shape I love but an going to grow it a bit longer and it will be perfect

holy shit jackbauer, it looks fab!!!!!!!!!

you seriously did that yourself?

Add me to the list! I my mum did mine today and it looks really good, I am very impressed. My mum took some photos so when she emails me them i'll add them to my profile.

Thank you for the nice comments. Feedback in RL positive too (my dad said I looked like a Cannes starlet trying to pop to the shops in mufti (this was whilst wearing sunnies) and my mum keeps telling people proudly that I did it myself, which is funny when the last time I cut my own hair, c. 1984, she went mental ).

MamaG mine is utterly mullet, which is karma for laughing at DD being born with one. I do feel your pain because I felt very sick and shaky right afterwards and no one was on the thread then either. 24 hours later I am feeling a bit better, though I've just noticed that it's taken advantage of me not really paying attention (tidying and attending to DD) to dry all fluffy and mad

All3Ways I own neither a barrel brush nor a hairdrier, so will just have to wait for it to grow!

Forgot to say DH swears it looks okay, and DD vomited into it

Well not only did I cut mine, I coloured it as well!
Admittedly just a semi permanent one, I haven't had it coloured snce my Carol Decker days!

All3ways, sorry, it could just be my dirty mind. And now I know what it means I feel even worse! Are you fairly new? there are some veyr non-parenting names around on MN, that's why I love it!

Dita, baby vomit highest form of praise IMO

Highlander - Oh yes, I am queen of new hair. If you look carefully you can see distracted toddlers in the background with cbeebies on so I can hack with scissors

dita you look GREAT!
Fab pic.

Thanks

It is very very 70s!

I have been round a couple of years, but post irregularily.
I will keep it I think, so long as it doesn't offend ;)

I have pictures on my profile BUT tey will only be accessible to my mates. Anyone who has shared their pics can be a mate....everyone else will have to beg! Will update mates list tonight.

(mammya and meggymoosmum still not back with update on opinion)
(Not mentioning MamaG yet either)

You can look at my pics of my dd after I did her hair! It's the first pic on my profile. I think it rather suits her.
