Every time I go to get my haircut, I ask the hairdresser to layer it, trim it a bit, and cut it short around the face. And when I say "short around the face", I point to my cheekbones, to indicate where 'short' is for this purpose. Have you and I had this conversation already, internets? Because if so, you will already know that when I am done, the hair around my face is cut to my chin, which is not my cheekbones. And every time I am sad.

So this time, I was very clear about what I meant by "short around the face", and I pointed, and we had a conversation about it, and I really thought that this time, I was going to get what I asked for.

I think you have guessed, by now, that I did not.

It is short in front, all right; it barely covers my eyes. Not only that but it's short in every other direction as well, so short that I can't pull it back in a ponytail. She also thinned it, so it's too short, and too thin. The layers are too short, too, so it feathers out a bit on the sides. It is, without question, a Disastrous Haircut.

Does anyone out there in internets-land have a hairdresser who 1) actually listens to what s/he is asked to do, and 2) actually has the skills to then Do That Thing? Because I am going to have to go back to super-long hair in self-defense, if this keeps up.
