I cut my hair off again!

I went to the salon today feeling kind of sad. I really didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t like my hair in the least. My stylist picked up on that and just started cutting. I kept asking what she was doing and she kept saying I don't know, I'll tell you when I'm done. Two color processes and 3 hours later I have my short hair back and it's dark purple with ashy purple highlights. Thank goodness I have such a wonderfully talented stylist. She is worth every penny!

PICS??

And just where is the pics??

That sounds superb! My hair is long at the moment and I hate it - it's curly and just frizzes out from my head. I've always been a bit nervous about having my hair cut though, due to disasters in the past. The one salon I found that I like and trust charges £60 just for wash, condition, and cut, so I need to find a better paid job or save up over a few months

But yes I second what others have said, I'm dying to see what it looks like, it sounds great - get your camera out!!!

ETA: Nate just read this over my shoulder and said he'd pay for me to have it cut, bless him

I have always had long hair, I don't think I would look good with short hair, It looks so good on some people and so easy to manage! My hair hasn't been cut in 5 years, not even a trim, it's almost to my butt again. every time I want a trim the stylist always chops it right off short, no style to it or any thing and I wind up so upset I just grow it back out, if they had some style to it, I may have liked it.
I would like to see pics too!

I just saw this thread I swear, and had just replied to the spotlight thread asking if you ever have the urge to go back to purple hair!

You've got to post some pics. I bet it looks fabulous. I need a haircut and color too, just haven't gotten around to making an appointment because its so expensive here in LA...

I will... DH has to stop playing Zelda first!

I usually have about shoulder length hair but was too busy to get it cut over the summer. I finally got into my stylist beginning of october and he must have cut off a good 6 inches. It felt so much better-it was getting pretty crummy looking!! I'd like to see your end result!!

She cut off about six inches today, so here it is!

Okay, after looking at these pictures I realize that the color translates red on camera. IRL it looks dark purple. Honest.

Red or dark purple, the cut alone is VERY flattering on you.

You know, I think this is the first photo I've seen of you on here. Is it the first you've posted?

Thank you!

No, I have a really bad one in the Pictures Pictures! thread. I've decided to be brave as of late, so I'm posting a little more of myself.

No need the be "brave". You're really attractive, and you should flaunt it when you've got it!

That cut is GREAT on you...I have not had a haircut since April(I have curly hair) and I look like Alice the Goon from Popeye!!

That looks really good!!!

Great haircut, and the colour is fantastic! I'm all nostalgic now about when I used to have a bright red streak in my hair, but as it's really fine and brittle I can't really be doing that sort of thing very often. It really suits you!

Thanks all! I have purple conditioner to keep the color in!

Great style! I like the colour too. It's very flattering on you.

I never know what to do with my hair so I totally trust my stylist. I sit in her chair and tell her to do whatever she wants. I figure it's only hair and it will grow out and I have super rapid hair growth (more than 1" per month), so it takes no time at all to grow out if I don't like it.

The last time I got something similar to what you have, only on a much shorter scale in the front because she knows I hate having my hair over my face or hanging on my neck.

I've been thinking of making an appointment for another cut and style. I colour my own hair. But now that I see how nice your colour turned out I may go the 2 tone route myself.

it looks nice

Wow! She is a genius. That girl has obviously found her calling in life - I'm glad you have a cut you're happy with.

It looks really pretty - maybe get DH to take one in natural lighting so that we can all see the purple?
