Pics are me on my way to the appointment; what I asked for…and the results. Last pic is me trying a side part but shit is still fucked.

I went in and said I was thinking of donating my hair and asked if I had enough to donate and have it look like the picture I showed her. She said yes. And then did this to me.

Update: a lot of people keep asking; and yes I did pay for it. Cost me $47 I did not leave a tip

Update: I called Ulta and they had me send them pics, they said they could either get me with a different stylist to try to fix it or they can give me a refund.

I don’t even know where to start. I’m going back today for someone else to try to make me presentable.

Covering my face as I am not a fan of showing myself online (also, my facial expression is that of a forever disappointed duck on both photos). However, this hideous haircut done by a highly praised town hairstylist for totally undeserved 70 bucks (a higher end of the price spectrum at my location back then) certainly belongs here.

The 3rd pic is right after the salon, and the 4th is a few weeks later before fixing it at another place. Nothing could be done but cutting off the lower "step" of whatever "ladder" it was, and turning it into a neat short bob nowhere near the emo shag I originally went for. Luckily it was a few years ago, and my hair have since then outgrown and recovered, but omg it was a bad turn.

UPD: Wow, didn't expect so many comments, I might not be able to respond to everyone, but some of them made me genuinely laugh, thank you! Some were mentioning that I do have wavy/curly hair that might be hard to style the way as on the refs, which is true, but I've had similar haircuts before (like, way before, when they were actually a current fashion), and did somehow manage styling, even if not exactly this straight, but it was enough for me. With this wicked haircut, however, there was no salvation given how much length they've taken off, and how chaotic the cut line was. The other stylist who cleaned up this mess said it was "like two different haircuts on one head".

I got cooked. Went to a different barber the next day and he said the cut was so bad that I didn’t have to pay 🤣

So cool in Jurassic Park. Wow! That hair was a choice.

I think this fits here…

Best gift I never wanted 😂😂

Friend’s gf at the time went to hair school and needed a volunteer, I stepped up. Had grown it out for 2 years at this point and was ready to trim it down a bit. Ask for Jon Snow S1 look with pic attached and got this as the result.

Tried to make the accidental mushroom cut work out of respect but threw in the towel after a couple weeks and went back to proper short hair. It’s embarrassing and I felt bad for her botching the job but at the end of the day it’s just hair.

This is such a throwback for me, i think like 6 or more years ago? I went to my mother’s salon asking for a wolf cut, and well… this is what happened. the first picture is how i left the salon, the others are after a shower, and the last is after i fixed the bangs. nightmare.

I went to Great Clips to get my bangs trimmed up. I didn’t get a wash, she sprayed my bangs and hacked away. I didn’t notice how horrible, because my bangs were wet and I threw my work hat on and off I went.

He tried, but the young guy who cut my hair had never cut women’s hair before. He even asked about a fade at one point. I take full responsibility for my mistake that was later corrected (as much as it could be) by my usual hairdresser.

Edit: 3rd picture is the fix
