Let’s just say that bangs + all-one-length hair = REALLY DAMN BAD IDEA, FOR REAL!
Basically, I made myself look like a jackass before we went to a nice get-together with our friends. I looked and felt like a dweeb and spent most of the evening trying to brainstorm on how to salvage my hair and self respect.
Finally, I have the cute, spanky little short haircut I’d long wanted. I no longer look like a jackass…or if I still look like a jackass, at least I no longer look like a miserable jackass. Tomorrow, I’m going to re-do my henna, even up any uneven spots, and call my new ‘do a success.
I actually like it, quite a lot. This is some damn easy hair. Totally wash-and-go. I can goober it up with a little gel to make it spiky, to un-dent it from my bike helmet, but if I just don’t feel like doing anything, I don’t have to. I don’t even really have to comb it. Schweeeeet!
Edited to add: all of the haircuts you see above are self-administered. Absolutely no professionals were involved. For as much as I paid, you, too can look just as goofy. While I am perfectly happy with my home-made haircut, I don’t really much advocate trying this at home, unless you, like me, are pretty nonchalant about how you end up looking.
