i love style needs to get their hair did

That sounds amaaaaaaazing.

Definitely talk to a colorist about how to adapt it. Color theory suggests that adding red would make purple, but that might not be how it actually works on hair.

I think you'll find blue will washout pretty quick so you might be able to just use the plum color you want. Really don't see how you would need to bleach again w/ blue. It's usually red that refuses to leave ime

yeah I'd just use the colour you want to end up with.

My hair is a disgrace and I'm waiting on rich ppl all next week and I want to look sharp real bad! But I can't until my freelance checks come in (sent a week ago) so I'm just googling "androgynous pixie cut" and making a folder of slightly obsessive bookmarks.

my hair is a complete and total mess too, and i just have to make the appointment but i don't want to and also getting my hair done makes me feel like such a jackass. i wish i could feel ok just letting it be but i don't. it's like the last frontier of things i gaf about :-/

will probably wait a week or two still just to really drag it out

loooooooooool

haha
you know it

You have to really wallow in the self-loathing and indecision for a while so you can work up the impatience w yourself that finally snaps you into action.

I like all those a lot.

I'm growing mine out and I'm weirdly excited about having hair again! Obv it's not going to be long but anything not pixie is long to me right now.

Putting these here so next week at the stylist I can just open this thread:

I love the first pic. Or maybe I just love the woman in the first pic. It's hard to tell.

Xp Reading my mind! I hate my hair at like 80% but hate the idea of getting my hair done at maybe 75% max capacity so we've got a way to go still.

Yeah it's hard for me to not want entire new head when looking at these pics :-/

xp I have that problem with "cool" girls too, carl. As a lyfe strategy, I've gone with just stealing their hairstyles.

LL, could you have a wild hair color if you wanted? Or do you feel like it would be a professional obstacle?

I guess I could but I'd rather not, not for professional reasons though. Just bc I don't want to.

This is the problem with photos of hairstyles. If the models are too attractive and/or cool, it's hard to tell if you really like the hairstyle or if it's just that the model is hott.

I got my hair cut recently for the first time in a year, and even though I went to the same place, it was a different person, who mucked it up so badly I'm back at the trauma of "never getting my hair cut AGANE!" even as I am lusting after the same haircut I am always wanting. :-/

Oh okay. I was just getting into the ombre idea but nm!

even though I went to the same place, it was a different person

Nnnnooooo! Always go to the person, not the place!!

Yeah but I tend to get haircuts so far apart the same person is never there. :(

And most haircuts I have had in the past 10, 15 years have been so traumatic I've never wanted to go back to the same person ever.

When a stylist changes salons I think here if you call the old place they will usually tell you where he or she went to? If they wanted your business, they should have kept your stylist happier w her job so she didn't leave. I followed my fave to her new place a few years back and I get a discounted rate for loyalty. It all works out.

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.

I got my hair cut today, and I am not happy.

They cut off too much. And I had pictures!

I miss my witch hair.

How short is it?

Oh no! Too short is horrible! (complaining mine is too long & fluffy but too short definitely the worst!)

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.

Also before the cut everyone told me "you should get it cut and donate it" and this annoys me soooo much.

I like when people say "are you going to give it to cancer?"
cancer needs the hair

io, I can totally see your face under the very first crop that you posted!

i had a woman say she could get me at least £300 for mine

considering investing in some moroccanoil now i know i've a nest egg on the go

They gave me my cut hair. I think I'm going to use it for spells.

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.

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.

Wait I can fix this let's trade.

Are you OK with being ginger?

I've always wanted red hair actually.

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.

SHOW IT NOW.

This is the hair-spiration thread, we must see it.

No, no, no, no, no, I'm so ASHAMED of who it is.

(it's a great fucken haircut, tho.)

????? No excuses. Is it Taylor Swift??? I'm down with that.

Come on, it's way, waaaaayyyyy worse than Taylor Swift.

now i am imagining u as a psg era mauricio pocchetino

Wait I'm making a shortlist:

Miley Cyrus
Rihana
David Bowie
...

Justin Bieber.

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."
