The hairdresser said shoulder length, but cut it very short

I had the exact same thing happen to me. When she said shoulder, I swear she was going to chop it off. Then she said let’s fix the angle of your hair, and I ended up struggling for another 3 months thinking it would grow out.

I think it would have been better if it were said at that moment; sometimes hairdressers take a customer's silence as approval. But of course, when you think about that shock, you freeze — you are right 🙄

Has the hairdresser done this for the first time or does he/she always cut hair directly the way he/she knows? I mean, is there a history to this?

@kahvebitmeden I've actually been going for years, usually it's good, but this time it was very different. But I don't think it's the first time he's done this, maybe he had a burst of confidence.

I think the ear-level model looks good on most people, but it's clear you don't want it. I can't understand why you would take such a risk.

@soncaykaldi yeah, but it seems like you may have gone a bit overboard too, right? If they said they wanted to straighten things out and if you also agree, it might have gotten a little complicated 🙄

When it comes to hair, there's something to consider, folks. Hairdressers often interpret "let's take a little off" differently. It's important to define the measure clearly and to check the process in the mirror, but of course, not every customer shows the same level of calm.

then get used to the new model, there is no other way anyway

Could he have cut it just so it would be easier to hear if he said it was ear level? (just kidding, I think you should just change the hairdresser) 😂

I don't think the hairdresser has the right to betray that trust when you sit in the chair. Your hair isn't their playground. Be straightforward: ask, "Why did you cut it like this? It didn't turn out well this time." Don't leave without knowing 🥲
