frist of all how DARE yu o Awful haircut 😭🙃

The first pic is my before hair. It’s been bleached 2x this past year, but I’ve still managed to keep it pretty healthy (ish), LOTS of babying it, bond repair & hair oil later. I was excited to finally cut off a good amount of hair for the first time in a while and this was the result of my hair cut pic 2 and 3.

I’m literally so sad and disappointed the stylist did such an awful job. She literally cut my hair straight across with me standing up?? Like my bf could’ve done that for me I the kitchen. I asked for a blunt, straight-across cut and expected that shape. What I didn't expect was for my hair to be cut all at once, with no sectioning and no effort to soften or texturize the ends so there was some movement on top of it literally being uneven. She didn’t even towel dry my hair “bc I had too much hair”, just left it soaking on me, then said she didn’t have time to blow dry it as well. This is why people have such hair trauma going to stylists. How do you call yourself a professional and do this?! Ugh. I’m going to my usual stylist to get this fixed later this week. The only reason I tried someone new was bc I found a cheap Groupon for her, you definitely get what you pay for.

In the meantime aside from curling the ends or wearing it up. How should I try and fix this guys?! Pls help. Thanks for reading my rant about my awful haircut today. 😭😭

If you have long thick hair, my tip is find a hair dresser who also has long thick hair. It’s super dumb but it is a rule I employed after some disasters and now I no longer cry when I leave the salon :) Whatever they cost will be worth it. 

Also just spend the money don’t ever get a Groupon cut ever again. Cheap  AND good hair dressers don’t really exist. You get good OR cheap.

Oh yeah, I've had some bad hairstylists. The one I had happened 30 years ago. I remember it like it happened yesterday. I had hair down to the bottom of my butt. I wanted it trimmed up to the bottom of my shoulder blades. The stylist cutting my hair made a ponytail and lopped it off just above the hair tie. She proceeded to run around the studio whooping like she was in a western and she had scalped me. It was extremely embarassing. She then continued to trim and trim. She kept telling me I was going to love what she's doing. She got carried away and ended up cutting it up to just below my ears. I was crying. I still wanted it somewhat long so I could still do a ponytail during the summer time to get it off my neck. She gave me this hideous bob-like haircut. She acted like me crying in her chair was normal; that I was crying out of gratitude for the shitty hair cut. I had to go the following week to another stylist and get a pixie to fix it. I've had a pixie ever since. Some stylists should have their licenses revoked.

u/Little_View_6659 7h ago

Oh dear god that’s a horror story. The worst thing that happened to mine was I wanted layers and she gave me a short old lady haircut. She literally looked at the wrong picture in the book. I pointed to the one on the left, she did the one on the right. My mom is a stylist and she always did my hair, but her and my step dad had moved a few hours away so I had gone to this lady. I moved overseas after that and had a few bad cuts until j coukd my current stylist. My daughter keeps asking me why I go to the same guy and I’m always saying he spends a long time and has a lot of patience on my hair. I have a ton of hair and it’s curly so its not easy.

u/instagrizzlord 8h ago

As a professional, standing up for the cut makes sense for the length of your hair and the type of chair in the salon. However, I rarely ever recommend not getting layers, especially with thick hair, they aren’t usually optional if you want the cut to look actually good. That being said, this cut was not executed technically or correctly.

u/macarenamobster 8h ago

I used to ask for no layers because I was traumatized as a teen from a stylist going nuts with feathering around my face. It looked awful, and my hair is frizzy so it only got worse.

But I realized some gentle layers are good - the stylist needs to know what they’re doing lol.

This happened to me a few months before my wedding. My usual stylist had gone on maternity leave and I had to go somewhere new. I explicitly said I’m getting married soon and want a basic trim.

I have hair a little longer than her original length, and the stylist sits down for my cut

I also went with a completely blunt, no-layers cut for many years because I was traumatized by bad layers, but let my stylist give me layers during my most recent appointment a few months ago, and it’s such an upgrade.

When I told her that I wanted layers, she lit up and was legitimately so thrilled. She called it getting rid of my “Sister Wives” hair. She was right.

u/StripedCat404 5h ago

My daughter has thick hair. Her hair grows faster in places. She has an undercut for this reason. Well, she (16) decided last night to 'even it up'. Welp, I noticed. It's not even. Her hair needs to be cut with a very slight arc at the end to be 'straight'. That and she hacked at it with my utility scissors, not my Japanese steel specifically for hair scissors.

So that's going to be my day today.

On the plus side, at least she waited 16 years to cut her own hair for the first time. 😅

u/Obsidian-Dive 7h ago

I have super fine straight hair and layers always look choppy on me. So I do like getting a blunt straight cut on my long hair. However it doesn’t usually look as choppy as hers does for some reason.

u/Strongman1967 6h ago

Skill issue.

For hair to not do this the stylist needs to use techniques that are much more difficult the further past the shoulders the hair length goes.

This stylist just doesn't have sufficient skill with this hair type.

I stopped getting haircuts completely. People always mess it up. My hair is fine and wavy, if you wet it and cut an inch it will look like 5 inches was cut dry. People never understand that, and always take WAY too much.

Now I simply trim my hair myself.

I'm going somewhere new that was recommended to me. I am nervous but hopeful....

This is why I learned to cut my own hair and it might seem crazy, but after a stylist literally walked out on me after screaming at me because she disagreed with how I wanted it cut, didn't do what I said and then argued with me about it while I mourned my beautiful hair on the floor.... I couldn't do it anymore. I wanted a blunt edge on my bangs and she seriously said to me "if someone wanted to cut the shape of stairs on their hair what would you do??" And I said "I'd cut the stairs...." and she screamed "NO YOU WOULDNT BECAUSE THATS NOT AN OFFICIAL HAIRCUT" I replied with "and where is the list of official haircuts so next time I can pick one!! It's been 2 years without hair trauma!! It's not as hard as you think, and if you have a lot of length to work with you can start with teeny tiny cuts that are totally fixable. I also am able to fix those little pieces so well, and it's really turned out to be a good experience, I haven't even needed someone to cut the back for me yet! I got a pair of scissors and thinning shears on amazon for less than $20. Just find one cut and watch tutorials how to do it and trust yourself and trust the process!! But fuck hair trauma!!!!

Yeah i cut my own hair after so so sorry many disappointments.  The last straw was when I asked EXPLICITLY for only 2  inches off. Which would have put my hair mid back. She cut it to JUST BELOW THE SHOULDERS. I was so pissed.  I did not pay the full price, I gave her half, I told her why, told the owner why, and no one argued. This was 15 years ago now.

u/Puzzleheaded-Bad-722 5h ago edited 2h ago

Yep, I exclusively cut my own hair and have done  the last ten years. 

My hair is thick and wavy, yet every time I went to the hairdresser's they'd straighten it to cut and shape it, no matter how much I'd tell them it doesn't sit like that, and I don't straighten my hair. I once asked for an asymmetric fringe and the stupid woman cut a fucking square shape out of the corner of my then full fringe. I went home and got exactly what I wanted (and what sat right) with my own scissors. Never been back since

u/NYanae555 7h ago

Don't let people tell you this is because of your length. Stylists with no skills do that to my hair too and my hair is shorter. They literally chop it up into uneven chunks. Its like they never learned how to cut straight hair in a line or smooth curve. The worst ones think they can fix it with a texturizing shear and put a million messy layers in it. DO NOT LET THEM. So aggravating. I have fixed many a haircut on my own.....but I shouldn't have had to.

i have thick and fairly straight hair naturally, i usually cut my hair myself at home but if i go to the salon i always ask for them to feather the ends so its not blunt. i haaaate a blunt cut it looks so blocky and it feels weird when tying it up and stuff, i also cut myself in layers which makes it less blocky but you don’t have to go super short layers. i understand the frustration of a bad cut but maybe ask for feathered soft ends next time rather than a blunt cut?

edit: forgot to add i usually get mine cut dry but i think thats more preference since my hair does have a small amount of texture to it idk if that makes an impact on the actual cut. probably wouldn’t have saved this anyway 😭 but you should totally ask for a refund

Its not a layering thing. It happened because the stylist had bad technique AND tried to cut hair in chunks as big as their scissors would allow. And with every cut hair is pushed to the side on a slant. and thats how you get those uneven chunks. The stylist didn't know about blending either.

Can't believe anyone would be trustful enough to go back hoping they don't make it worse 😭

"Hi, can you fix this and make it less worse".

u/MightySamMcClain 4h ago

Definitely wouldn't be letting them touch it again. Maybe go back for your money but not to fix it. Go somewhere else

Go... back?

No, never go back to these guys.

Sorry, I didn’t read you were going to your normal stylist. Still you could get a free fix from whoever you went to. Something to keep in mind.

u/thewhombler 7h ago

idk.. looks like a blunt, straight-across cut to me

I'm also confused. This seems exactly what OP requested

u/FluffyBat16 7h ago

"Cheap groupon" was the red flag you missed.

Sorry to your hair, but, did you expect great things?

u/jroxy99 7h ago

It’s so boxy

u/breewggie 7h ago

She wetted your hair for that? I thought it was gonna be layers or something, but just a straight blunt cut 😭

oh my god they BUTCHERED it

NOOOOOOO

u/Important-Poetry9063 6h ago

I started cutting my own hair after fixing it with hair ties. If I end up with a shitty blunt edge, at least I didn’t pay for it

This would be unacceptable getting at Great Clips. Absolutely unreal and im so sorry

This is exactly why my hair is long as yours and has been in a bun the last decade.

u/dildobaggins55443322 5h ago

Yeah that’s pretty bad

u/Diqt 5h ago

I have no idea how women's hairstyling works, but can this be remedied by someone else? My stupid brain is telling me there's enough length to do something about it?

When my hair was that long I was always asked to get up so they'd measure properly

I also have very long hair, and I'd be more than "mildly" infuriated if someone did that to me. It takes so much work and time to get it that long and keep it healthy.

u/BadKarma89 25m ago

Look like they cut it with a butcher's knife.

u/Environmental_Ant268 9m ago

Advice for the ladies, look for a salooist who is clearly better looking than you, studies show that saloon workers who receive the client as more beautiful than her will cut more of the hair

u/Elmenopee 6h ago

I can't imagine getting like a foot of hair cut off and using a Groupon snd nit going to my normal stylist. Not victim blaming. This is a bad hair dresser. But risky move.

u/Key_Cry_3170 7h ago

With haircuts, you absolutely get what you're paying for. I am sorry. I learned this lesson once, many years ago.

u/Little_View_6659 7h ago

You still have so much length. You should go to a reputable stylist and get some layers. Fortunately you have a lot of hair to play around with. Some long layers and some curl would look gorgeous.

u/AggravatingBid8255 4h ago

Don't forget to light the stylist up in their reviews. Everywhere. Literally everywhere. Anywhere you can find an opportunity to review them. And the shop. They deserve as much heat for giving her a chair as she does for using it to butcher your locks

u/The_Unconquerable_1 2h ago

I’ve seen videos of people cutting hair with a meat cleaver that looks better than that 😭

u/Fit-Engineering-2789 8h ago

I don't think it's as bad as you think, but you're right - someone else could do the same thing. Or even you yourself could have done it. That's why I hate paying to get my haircut - I am usually not satisfied with it.

u/NoDescription7183 8h ago

Why didnt you go to your usual stylist for this? Never go to a new stylist for something major

u/Dizzy_Corgi_9781 8h ago

I didn’t think a trim like that would count as major

u/ManKatt022518 53m ago

As a hairdresser myself, the problem here looks like she may have cut your hair while sitting in that chair. I always have my clients with long hair stand so the cut is even. By combing your hair over the chair and then cutting it, it caused over direction of the hair. Making it uneven when it’s now brushed down…..if that makes sense. Easy peasy fix though love ❤️

Ma'am do you understand what a blunt cut means? This is LITERALLY what you asked for. You have no right to complain.

u/smellslikespam 6h ago

Definitely a Groupon-caliber deal. You will always get lowest-tier beauty treatment with Groupon

u/Cheesenubs84 6h ago

I have super long hair. Once got it cut and they chopped it up. From then on I cut it myself.

My wife and I started DIYing our hair like 20 years ago after a lot of dissapointing haircuts and hair dye jobs. I had butt length hair as a teen and had them dye it, I saved up money for it, it was very expensive. Entire sections were completely undyed and my forehead was stained badly. I went back to ask them to fix it they told me I had to pay the full amount again and since I had so much hair it was unreasonable of me to expect them to dye everything... 🫠

My daughters and I have had this same problem with Great Clips and/or Super Cuts. They're both revolving doors of stylists that totally ignore what we asked them to do.

1

u/F999-163 5h ago

oh my god,that hairstylist did such a bad jod!😭 Did they bleach and dye your hair again in the third pic? The color actually looks pretty good, but the haircut itself is awful.

I'd definitely go back and talk to the stylist about it. Maybe you could ask them to fix the cut and bring it closer to your original hairstyle? I honestly think that would look really nice on you too!
