Hi everyone! For starters I want to thank everyone so much for commenting and helping my understand my situation and also validating the very obvious fact that they were done badly by the hair salon. I ended up contacting them and going back to the salon in which the hairstylist did a lot of layering and thinning to blend the hair. When I left I thought it looked a lot better but after taking a photo of the back straight after as well as after I showered and blow dried my hair I am still unhappy :( I have attached both photos of my hair after the second haircut below. I ended up sending the hair salon a message expressing how unhappy I was and this was their response/solution, is this fair? I am honestly not sure what to do going forward from here and just feel very sad and embarrassed about my hair. I feel like if they remove them my hair is gonna look terrible because of all the hair that was cut to make them blend. Please let me know what you think and what I should do, I really really appreciate it!

Why do hairdressers never seem to listen to what they’re asked to do? Before anyone says I should’ve spoken up, I’m autistic and I frequently go mute under stress. The second I saw her cutting it much shorter than we’d agreed, I completely froze. I couldn’t get the words out, and even now I feel guilty and rude for complaining. I’m 16 and I start college for the first time in a month, and I’ve been crying and panicking because this haircut is genuinely horrific to me. I actually know how to style hair and I’m usually really good at it, but only when it’s the length I was expecting. I’ve had every length of hair, including a pixie cut, and it was the worst decision of my life because I was severely bullied for it. I even told my hairdresser about the bullying before she started cutting, which is exactly why I didn’t want it this short. Now it’s brought all those memories back and I honestly don’t understand why she would cut so much off after I’d explained everything. I would never have chosen to have my hair this short and I know I’m not really asking much of a question I just need to tell anyone I need some kind of reassurance, it’s also layered at the back but you can barely see it because it only looked nice with the length I wanted.

I feel like my head looks flat from the side/back and I'm not sure if it's just the shape of my head or a styling/haircut issue. I've wondered if it could be just the length my hair is at, the layering, or even my posture or something, but I feel like it just might be the shape of my head, which is visible in pic 2 with my hair wet. Would love any help or opinions, I always wear it up in a clip because of how it looks when its down 😢

Hi all! I just recently went and got my hair don’t by someone, and they are not the topic of this post cause they did absolutely amazing on my hair. This post is about my former stylist. When I went to get my hair done this past Sunday, my new stylist (I’ll call them M) informed me that I had pretty bad bleach damage, which I had no clue about. My last stylist (I’ll call her J) didn’t tell me that she had caused bleach damage in my hair, but besides that, she also put me under a hair dryer with bleach in my
Hair,,which M told me was illegal in the state we live in. I’ve been weighing this for the past few days, on if I should or shouldn’t leave a review about J, so other people are warned about what they may get into with her. Pics of my hair above (before & after!)

Looks crazy good to me! Is this a real hair dye?

I'm not sure which hair color best suits me. I've had blonde/vivids for about six years, and I'm starting to wonder if going back to dark brunette is the better choice for me. I think I'm blind to what looks best.

I gave this reference for bangs and money peice area and this is what I got. I want to cry.

Any suggestions?

Exactly the title, pretty please help me out on how to recover from this. I’m already getting a haircut but this is the worst it’s ever been

i really want to get them but i am afraid of thinking it looks good while actually it looks bad. had bangs a few years ago but i think it wouldn t be reliable to trust old pics

Apparently is kind of like a mullet and I'm STOKED about that ☆(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*

Hi, I am a Transwoman and when I grew out my hair and it reached my shoulder, I got my first femme haircut. The stylist and my elder sister said a bob hair with bangs and a middle parting would suit me and pair well with my earrings (I usually like to wear long, dangling ones)

I kindof like my new hair but I want my bangs to look more like that of British actress Jameela Jamil (on the left)

My bangs are parted in the middle (just like the rest of the bob) but not sure if it is a density issue or I need to ask my stylist to cut it differently?

does anyone know why my hair is doing this? i also want to clarify that its bent close to the base not the end

I posted a few days ago about a rough balayage job I got at a beauty school. The school reached out and let me come back for a free correction from a more experienced student, and it thankfully went great! I’m honestly impressed with how well they were able to fix it up and thankful I didn’t have to spend another $200+ at another salon.

Hi guys! I'm looking for some ways to get 2A hair pin straight without hot tools (regular blow dryer is okay).

So far when I've tried, I end up with frizzy triangle-shaped hair. I've had the most success using a blow dryer with a comb attachment and drying on high heat.

Before anyone gets on me for this, no I do not want to embrace my natural texture. I've tried wavy/curly hair routines and I don't like my hair wavy. I want it as pin straight as possible.

The last two photos are of previous haircuts I got before I started growing out my hair. Hair stylists always give me a pixie cut the first time I ask to chop it all off (even though I always ask for a more masculine cut lol) so I'm not too surprised it looks a little different. I'm still very happy with it though and can't wait to see it grow out a little bit more!
Long hair is fun to braid but it is not for me haha

What does everyone think looks best on me? I included the reference picture I used for ChatGPT and also a photograph of my current hair! I have been getting highlights for a few years and I feel as if my hair is just now very light and a mess of different highlights and tones. Should I go way darker or should I try to just define my highlights a bit more?

I dont know what I am doing wrong, but my hair seems stucked at this length, I don't know why i cant retain it, i want long hair and it sucks that it takes forever to grow. What should I do??
