I said let's take it from the ends, but the barber cut it really short. I can't even recognize myself when I look in the mirror. I'm really upset, my self-confidence has dropped. What can I do until my hair grows back? Or do you have any suggestions for me to feel good during this process?
I think there's something else going on here. Usually, when they say to trim the ends, hairdressers don't cut it this short; was your exact description clear? Or they might be doing this on purpose just to be 'innovative.' Did you talk to someone else at the same place, or was it just with them?
Girl, if it happened to me, I'd honestly cry out of anger. But what's done is done. Now what you can do is try some styling products. For example, add some waves, add some movement. Otherwise, if it stays the same, you'll always get bored from the same spot 🙄
Now you're saying that your self-confidence has dropped because your hair is cut short. I think this situation is related to the emotional impact of self-care. During the hair growth process, you could try a keratin treatment; it helps with regrowth and makes your hair grow healthier. If it doesn't help, a wig or clip-ins can also be tried. But of course, it's important to be clearer in communication in the long run.
Let me add that I did show a photo when I went to the hairdresser, but I didn't expect to wait this long. I had asked for a light trim, maybe it wasn't understood, I don’t know anymore. For now, I’ve turned to clips and headbands, but I feel like everyone is looking at me.
But one thing caught my attention, you said let's take from the edges, but the 'light layer' and the part about showing the photo came later. I think the hairstylist might have added their own comment. Did you follow a clear formula, or was there something like 'I leave it a bit up to you' between you two? Maybe there could have been some misunderstandings.
