Okay, so maybe it was not the best idea in the world to hack off two inches of curls the morning of the holiday party.



Kind of a "Carrot-Top Meets Mrs. Doubtfire" look going at the moment.

I'm both flattered and worried for Mrs. Farmboy (Farmgirl? Farmwoman?), given the description I supplied. Maybe you just like a nice long distance rate. Or Robin Williams.

Haircuts done the day of an event always cause grief! My party is next Friday and I'm going to try to get my hair trimmed this weekend, but if I don't make it, then it will stay long until after Xmas.LOL

Don't worry about it, hon, it will grow back!

Just don't do that tongue forking thing, and you'll be all set.

Now THAT'S self mutilation.


Yet another Jslice masterpiece!

Did Pooh talk you into this 'cutting your own hair' thing?

Self inflicted haircuts are just never a good idea.

I have stick straight hair and you would think trimming my own bangs is a no-brainer. Wrong. Disaster every time.

and yet I still do it. I'm a glutton for punishment.....and too short crooked bangs.

currently coping with bangs from hill...maybe if I trim a little here it will even out...

The turbans are too funny - I was complaining about hair thinning as one gets older and how I'd be a "funny old lady in a turban soon" to someone just the other day...

Actually folks, I ALWAYS cut my own hair because it looks the same whether I cut it or Vidal Sassoon. And I am MUCH cheaper. With my hair it's like trimming a bush. However, every now and then, you wind up with an effect out of Edward Scissorhands.

Well, you could always wear a lovely tiara in your hair to distract people and give them something to talk about. Will a tiara clash with your gown?



Understands the misery of bad hair.

Hmmm...frightful hair covered by frightwig covered by tiara...may be too many layers, there...

Just drink a lot. Then nobody will notice.

The last time I cut my hair myself was in 1987. You remember, this was the era of the hairspray bangs. I had long bangs that were having trouble curling properly. In a fit of rage, I cut them. Short. Very short. So short that they looked like a small fringe. Thus, ended the hairspray bangs look for me. I couldn't do anything with them for months. I have never cut my own hair again.

Well, on the bright side, any sort of self hair cutting experience that eliminates "mall hair" is probably a good thing.

I can't really achieve "mall hair." Maybe "gas station hair."


Nancy Spungeon hair?

"gas station hair"

hmmm...that might not be such a good thing

maybe you need professional assistance?

See, the professionals botch it worse. They don't believe me when I tell them there is much less hair than they think. Elaborate layering techniques are planned. Then they shampoo me and realize that when curl goes, hair volume level dials down to a whispering "1". I explain that the cowlick on the right side of my forehead means you HAVE to cut the bangs longer on that side or they will look uneven when the curl returns after my hair dries. They NEVER EVER believe me and cut the bangs evenly so I look like the keyboard player from A Flock of Seagulls when they're through.

And I still feel compelled to tip them.

So I prefer to hope for the best, feck up my hair myself and save the money.

I like Chuck's drinking-a-lot suggestion.

Did you have a bad grade eight perm as well?


There's no doubt we're triplets, already, but the evidence mounts every day.

My natural hair IS a bad 8th grade perm. There was a brief shining year or two when everyone wanted that look and I was just so height of fashion! Unfortunately, most women appear to have come to their senses, leaving me back with the frizz.
