I've gotten bad haircuts in my time, but the one I got this week was the WORST ever. I really tried to convince myself that it is only hair and will grow back, but I just want to cry. There is only so many times you can hear "what was he trying to do" and "it isn't that bad - it will grow back" before one realizes it absolutely, totally SUCKS - and right before Thanksgiving, so thanks!
The guy cut my hair dry - which was my first red flag. Then he just started chopping without brushing out my hair to make sure it was even everywhere before cutting. I wanted about 1.25 inches off and layered -- just following the style I already had. He ended up taking off about 3 inches, gave me a flat top and bizarre sides. It looks like I have a square head.
Everything is uneven. And when I say chopped it looks like I had a mental freak out and started hacking my hair. I couldn't have done a worse job. Don't your people have to pass quality assurance tests or something!
