My friend Ewa (Eva) cut and dyed my hair.

How to get my hair cut
It made me
feel good
 "I can finally say I love my hair"
How I did it: I had super curly waist length hair for about 4 years and had kept it that way because I was afraid to lose it. After spending hours a day straightening to make it look presentable and ending up wearing a ponytail anyway, I decided I needed a change. I had a haircut I liked in mind for years but never had the guts to do it, mostly because I was afraid of what others would think, especially my overprotective family. I had been taking cosmetology classes which sparked my interest even more. One night I got fed up and just jumped and did it. I went from waist length hair to hair about 3 inches past my shoulders. It felt so liberating and my head was lighter. A few months later, I decided to go shorter with a shoulder length haircut with choppy layers and a fringe. I love it and its so easy to straighten. I feel so much better about myself and will do it again. Lessons & tips: Make sure you know what you want. Remember hair grows back, and there's always extensions if you hate it that bad. Do what YOU want, rather than let others decide for you. Take a picture to the salon with the style you like Resources: Hairstyle magazines, cosmetology school, and the internet |

How I did it: I did it myself while it was dry. I have curly hair and I wanted it quite short so I basically just chopped off the length, then chipped away at it until it was the shape I wanted. :) I have sweet hair now! Read how I did it…

waHOOOOOOOOOO!
How I did it: So, y'know: you ignore your hair and it grows and grows and grows... mine was past my arse and tons of fun to do weird things with, but I NEVER wore it down except to weddings. Finally a gorgeous, hot, fun friend of mine who's a hairstylist/make-up artist talked me into letting her cut it, and I LOVE IT! It is unbelievably fun, and I can actually wear it down in even professional settings! She is AWESOME! Read how I did it…

Happy
How I did it: I found pictures of what I wanted it to look like on the internet, and got it done by someone I trust. She asked me before she cut, so she wouldn't cut too much. It's best to start long and cut shorter. Read how I did it…
It made me
sexy!
How I did it: Firstly I decided how I wanted my hair cut and booked appointment at a hairdresses that I know of and trust. I attended my appointment ready to explain what I wanted my hairdresser to do (A little bit off the end to get rid of the splits and to put the layers back in- I also stressed that I didn't want to lose any of the lenght!)Done!

Since I’ve cut my hair short one year ago I can’t stop having different hair cuts. That’s great fun! :D

Done! My hair was basically a blank canvas before and now it has some style and shape to it. I had to wait 5 minutes for the stylist to finish up with her previous appointment so I flipped through a hair magazine and found a picture of the haircut I wanted. I showed it to her and she said it would work. I am happy, a lot happier than last time. :)

I made an appointment today.
I only get my hair cut once a year, and last time it was a total disaster. The hairstylist misunderstood what I wanted. It looked ok at the time, but it wasn’t what I was going for. Anyways, I’ve avoided getting it cut for a long time and now it’s completely outgrown and kinda uncontrollable. It’ll be nice to get it trimmed and have some layers to it.

I distinctly dislike going to get my hair cut. It’s too long and I look too young and really need to get a cut but I have some hair cutting phobia that I need to get over!
.....so difficult

The last time I cut my hair was five years ago when I chopped off all my beautiful locks (my head was practically shaved). I grew it out and now its back to its long golden waves down my back. I know I desperately need to get it cut again but I don’t know if I want to go back to that short length again (it was very easy to style) or keep it long and just trim off an inch or two.

I want long, thick, prettiful hair, but I can’t have that of course, so I have to keep it shorter.
It’s currently down to about my shoulders, but my hair is so fine it just ends up not looking too good, and plus it gets knotted a lot, blah.
I think my best bet will be to have it semi-long, i.e. only just covering my ears and down to about my eyebrows at the front. I think that’d look best.
