I AM TRAUMATIZED!!!!!!!! w/pic at the bottom

Let me start off by saying! That was the worst $12 ive ever spend in my entire life!

so i sat down with the girl and explained what i wanted...i said i just want a trim i dont want layers, or angles, just a trim very itty bitty bit off im trying to grow my hair long for years now and because its soo fine it takes alot longer! and she is like ok...
then she is playing with my hair and is all like so like how much like this much....and its clearly like 2 inches, and i goo 'oooohhhh nooooo way too much! im talking like half and inch at most! if you dont even have to cut that much that would be great...i guess one of the teacher comes over and asks what i will be getting and discuss that its going to be a straight square cut...fine ok

so she washes my hair and talks to me like ive never gotten a hair cut before! says oh im going to put shampoo in your hair now...um ok! duh thats what i figured, im gong to just wash out the shampoo now, time for conditioner, and talking about the paul mitchel products that she loves cuz it smells like apples. i asked her how long she was doing hair and she said a year, and has been in this school for 2 months..ok a year, not the greatest experience, but you can certainly learn a lot in a year!!

ok so she starts to cut my hair, sections my hair in to 8 million different sections, and basically pulls out 3 strands of hair out at a time and cuts them, of course she starts out in the back of my head and i cant see how much she is cutting off...

finally she is getting to the front and thats when i realize just how short it is! and omg i was about to cry right then and there...i was planning on her trimming my bangs too because they grew out a bunch, and she had to ask how to cut them ( i must have been her first hair cut EVER!!!) and the girl said to cut them dry so she blow drys my hair first, cant even do that good!! so the tears are forming and i some sort of nice face and was like oh you dont have to cut my bangs i like them long actually! just scarred sh-it-less that she was going to chop those off too!

then all she was trying to do was sell me products and im like no thank you...and i walk to the desk to pay for this awful thing and the girl behind the desk was like how did everything go and im like well she cut A LOT more than i asked for, and shes like 'oh no' and im like yeah a lot more! im traumatized and i going out right now to buy hair extenstions, i took my change and walked out!! no tip for her! i get that she is a student, but i specifically told her 12xs very little!

so im completely hysterical in tears and i called my friend and as im playig with it i notice there is a piece of hair that umm i guess she forgot to cut! i dont wanna cut it off to the lenght my hair is now, cuz it shows me how long my hair was before this whole debacle! when i got back to work! now 2 1/2 hours later! (i have thin hair! normally haircut takes 20-25 mins tops!!) 2 hours it took! my co-worker was all like wow! its short!

in reality its not like at my chin or anything, but i dont know if you guys realize how pscho i am about long hair! ive been trying to have long hair FOREVER! it was really starting to get there and off it went! im completely traumatized!!

im like in tears and i cant stop! im just so angry how i thought this was going to be a good idea! i get mad at my hair girl who ive been going to for year when she cuts a little too much off!

well i wont have to worry about not having money for a $50 hair cut cuz im seriously never cutting my hair again! EVER!!!

It's a Paul Mitchell training school in Roosevelt Field Mall. Since the students are doing the haircuts, etc., they service cost a lot less than going to the salon.

OMG!!!!!!!!! I would not have paid them anything for screwing up your hair!!!! I know its traumatizing but it will grow out. I would cut it all one length so that at least its even. So sorry that you went through that!!!

I'm sorry you had a bad experience. I understand how you feel. I'm completely anal about my hair, ever since I had a VERY bad perm experience when I was in 5th grade.

OMG - I am so sorry!!! I've gone there for blowouts and it's been fine but never for a cut.

Would a lovely framed picture of a hawk make you feel better?
