Girls, I went to the hairdresser yesterday to get my split ends trimmed, and honestly, I just asked for a little off the ends. But the result? It’s like they’ve taken off 10 cm! I didn’t recognize myself when I looked in the mirror, and everyone around me is saying, ‘But the new style is nice too’ and such. Well, where’s my approval in that? In such a situation, would you say something to the hairdresser, or would you just keep quiet?
I experienced the same thing last summer. I told the woman to ‘just make some light adjustments,’ and the next thing I knew, she had made it into a short bob! I was honestly speechless from shock. Then I went to another hairdresser and added some layers, which helped a bit. But it’s still really frustrating that they take so much initiative.
Oh girl, yours is something else. My hairdresser messed up the dye last year and ruined my hair. It was literally burnt, you know? I went and argued with them, but they didn’t accept any refunds or anything. That’s why I now clearly show in writing what I want 
But how much do you mean by “take from the ends”? Some customers say 1-2 cm, but if it’s breaking there, they might have to cut a bit more. If only a little was taken from the ends, you might still feel uncomfortable.
As a stylist, I can say this: Sometimes clients don’t express what they want clearly, and many people can’t measure length by eye suddenly. However, the hairdresser should still ask the client for their opinion. They need to measure and show first, saying “This could be it.”
Girls, I noticed something. As you said, maybe I didn’t express it very clearly. But the hairdresser said, ‘Short hair looks great on Turkish women, it would look modern because you’re tall.’ I don’t know, but still, I felt a bit uneasy.
If you’re still uncomfortable, I think you should just go to another hairdresser directly and play with a style. Light layered cuts that are shoulder-length tidy things up. Or find a clear photo and next time just say, ‘I want this, like in the mirror.’ 
My daughter, the hairdressing business is no joke; it has to come out clear from her mouth. If it were my daughter, I’d honestly say, ‘First show it fixed, then cut it.’ Because once they cut, there’s no turning back. You need to be a bit assertive.
I’m saying this without getting involved, but maybe the hairdressers are right; there are always people coming in who say, ‘just take a little off the ends.’ But okay, they shouldn’t have done it without your approval. I never get into arguments about things like this; the most I do is pay for my service.
