Why are there no "after" pictures you may wonder to yourself. Well, let's just say that the after pictures would have looked worse than the above "during" picture which, I think, says quite a lot. I took one look at my reflection, checked my tears, and asked Jason if we could buy some straightening solution. The perm was done really well, it just made me look 13 instead of 17 and it had to go. So, now I know what I look like with a perm and I won't try it again. Maybe I won't covet curly hair as much now....
Bad hair experiences? Share them here. I'll be very empathetic.

What???? What?! You didn't ask for, or notice that he was rolling you in perm rods? I would be dying right now. What was it that you actually did ask him for? Did you BUY straightening solution? Do you HAVE "after" pictures?
I'm so shocked I can't think of anything else to say. Besides WHAT????
At least no one called you "Annie" or "Fro Boy"!!!!!! You can call yourself lucky sis! Anyway, I just want to know what would possess you to ask someone to do that to you? Must be a prego thing.....
Girlfriend, I've had every bad haircut, haircolor and beauty salon nightmare known to mankind. Try coming home with bleached stripes, not vertical highlights, horizontal bleach streaks. I wore a hat over to Levi's house (this is when we were dating) and I was crying and I didn't want to take off my hat. He told me that he was sure that it'd be fine....I took off the hat and he grimaced and said, "It's not THAT bad." But the look on his face gave him away. He looked like Jon Lovitz in A League of Their Own when he sees Marla's face for the first time.
I was in desperate need of a haircut about two weeks ago, but Matt hates that I spend so much for haircuts. I thought I'd impress him and get my hair done at a cheap place and tell him how much I sacrificed. I got the haircut and he came to pick me up, when he saw me he asked what happened. I knew it looked bad but wanted to be tough. He asked me if I wanted to go to my "usual" place. I played the martyr and said no. We got home and he kept saying, "Becks, it's really bad. Make an appointment." But, I'd saved 20 bucks...then Ce said I had poopy hair and that was it. I went right to my haircutter lady (what are they called?) and she couldn't believe what had happened. I didn't realize how bad it was until she told me she couldn't completely fix it. Yeah, and I ended up paying for two haircuts in one day. People keep telling me I shoulda gone back to the lady who messed it up because she'd probably fix it for free...are you kidding me...fool me once...you know the rest! (Sorry it's so long, but you did ask for stories!)
I sometimes want to punch people who say they love curly hair. I always thought I looked young because of my freckles, but you just opened my eyes that there many be multiple reasons. Have hope, hair grows and you are still the same beautiful woman.
oh my! I am so sorry! Once, in high school I wanted red highlights- long story short- I walked out looking more PURPLE then red. I think we have all had to make the best of a very BAD hair experience at one time or another. Hang in there. Thankfully it's just hair and will recover- sooner or later. ;)
You have to love Troop Beverly Hills!! I rented it for my girls the other day and they loved it...
Please please post an after picture!! :-)
Sorry Laurie! I didn't even take any after pictures. It looked to bad. I should have ratted it up into a fro for a really good pic but I wasn't seeing the humor in the situation at the time.
Hey M,
I have a friend in your area looking for a doctor. Do you like your doctor and if so who is it?
OH...i'm sorry. Every day is a horrible hair experience for me...especially because the Geunter rips it all out.
I can only add to yours - try curly hair in humidity, not a winning combination. I managed to survive it in California, but when I first moved to Boston, I figured a hairstylist that lives and works here should know how to deal with the stifling July heat and humidity. That was a hard lesson to learn - took four years before I gave another MassHole a chance to cut my locks :) P.S. I have a photo for you to add to this post. . .some day soon I'll find it again. . .
RINALDO! I love that movie... but more importantly, I love you.
Remember when Becky and I, and Molly all all had perms back our sophmore year. We brought them back.
Sorry yours didn't work out. Sometimes when life happens I just think 'but this will make a great blog posting' and yours did :)
