Yup. I followed my beloved stylist from one salon to her current salon and then to her house when she quit work to be a stay at home mom and then back to her current salon when she was like "fuck that" and went back to work.

This sounds like such a faff. When I lived in NYC, I used to just go to Jean-Louis David every 6 months, present them with a photo of Alex James and say "put that on my head" and I would go away happy regardless of which technician applied the razor crop.
I think that was the problem, though, that this time I omitted a photograph. I assumed, stupidly, since the last man told me that he had left my details (e.g. what customised hair colour he used) on file that I wouldn't have to explain it all again. (I took along a photo of two Bauhaus students sharing a compromising cigarette in a way that left the implicit style desired quite obvious. The hair I got was actually nothing like either woman had on their head, but signified the same amount of "butch".)
I don't really want to have to develop a ~personal relationship~ with a stylist. Oh my god that is the nightmarish kind of social thing that makes me not get my hair cut ever again.

How short is it?
― carl agatha, Friday, 14 November 2014 20:55 (nine years ago) link
Oh no! Too short is horrible! (complaining mine is too long & fluffy but too short definitely the worst!)
― Nicki Minaj - The Pink Floyd (Branwell with an N), Friday, 14 November 2014 20:58 (nine years ago) link
It's shoulder length, and I would have liked it about six inches longer.
I am also annoyed that they blow dried the waves out so I'm going to have to wash it again tonight.
― tokyo rosemary, Friday, 14 November 2014 21:43 (nine years ago) link
Also before the cut everyone told me "you should get it cut and donate it" and this annoys me soooo much.

I took a razor to my nape to get rid of the flyaway hairs. If you have a nice nape you may not understand this, but my hair tends toward the center where it makes a rat tail. Just naturally. If you have cute little nape hairs that curl towards your ears like they like being there, you are probably my sworn enemy or something.
― Orson Wellies (in orbit), Friday, 14 November 2014 22:23 (nine years ago) link
No, no, no, IO, you have it so backwards!
A good nape-line is hairs that point straight down and twine towards the centre so that you get a nice point.
Totally unlike mine, which are bewitched curly devil-hairs that make a break for my ears, or just generally like to escape and cause mayhem. This is BAD. I should really just get an undercut to dispose of those fuckers.

― Orson Wellies (in orbit), Friday, 14 November 2014 22:33 (nine years ago) link
Deal, let's swap.
I found a new pic of my current hair hate/crush where that hair looks just particularly BRUTAL (and also, more crucially, more messy than normal, so it would look more like the hair upon mine own head) and I keep reminding myself that winter is cold and I should wait until spring but my god I want that hair.
Even if I will not look like *that*, (not least because I don't wear anywhere near that amount of make-up, in fact, at all) I will just look like a potato with brutalist hair.

Although for the record the Justin Bieber hairstyle is basically just "The Lesbian" so I'm not sure you can even say it's technically "his."

There, now you have hairpes.
It's kinda "Weimar Lesbian" meets "bedraggled goth dragged through a hedge backwards" which is much more achievable in my climate than the usual heavily ironed version.
(Not sure it would work in ginger, or without that much mascara on a daily basis.)
I AM SO ASHAMED.

I was trying to find the sketch comedy video where a cute boi tries a bunch of difft wigs at the hairstylist's and then says, "Oh what the hell, just give me the lesbian" and it's a haircut I've had 50 times, but in my search for "hairstyles 'the lesbian' " I came across a lot of awesome hair.

I think basically you have to be impossibly tall and skeletally thin and have cheekbones like Gothic arches to carry that hairstyle off effectively.

I feel like my forehead is too large not to have bangs, plus, my hair is very thick, and having bangs reduces its volume. Do ppl with thin/thinner hair have the opposite problem?

found my new favorite styling product for mah curly hair
Paul Mitchell Twirl Around. Just a little bit emulsified between yr palms, smoothed through the hairs and scrunched a bit, air dry and BOOM big old fat curls that are super soft and not at all crunchy or stiff or gross feeling. I tend not to do much hair-drying unless I'm going out-out, so the airdry is a huge plus. Never really explored Paul Mitchell products before but this one is a good un
it's like a softer, everyday version of the TiGi Curls Rock ie huge fat curls but Curls Rock was like drag queen mousse, you could wear that shit in a hurricane and yr hair wouldn't move.
