After asking for an inch off the length and some bangs, and showing 3 photos of what I'd like, I'm now left with a haircut that looks as if a someone attacked me with a weedwacker in their sleep. Because I was just had "the interior shredded to add more to the cut" I won't be getting another haircut for about six months to a year but I'll need to go somewhere else. |

| bettyxyz | Posted – 2/4/2008 9:58:01 AM | show profile Thanks! Yeah, it will grow back it's only hair. I'll save a lot by not going as much! As for my travel friend, I politely declined. And discovered a few others did the same. You have a good memory, foto! |
| GGG | Posted – 2/4/2008 9:04:50 PM | show profile If you're willing... If you're willing to take a little journey to Brooklyn, I've found the best hairstylist in NYC. After my hair BROKE OFF thanks to a nightmare color job at Elizabeth Arden, I was left with chunks of missing hair, too brittle to repair, no possible escape plan. I went to 3 top stylists, thinking you get what you pay for. Pft. Nobody could help. Until I met Sylvana. She works in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn at Lush Salon. She made me look amazing through 2 years of growing out the mess. And now, I get hair compliments on a regular basis. It's ALL HER!!! There. That's my story. Good luck, girlie! ------ Check out the blog! www.girlgoesglobal.com |

Hands down, the best has been John Kovacs at Chris Chase Salon (in Chelsea). An editor at Vogue recommended him and he is a godsend. He charges around $100 a cut, but SO worth it. I've been to more expensive stylists (e.g. Frederick Fekkai) but really no one compares. |
| writesonwater | Posted – 2/5/2008 7:12:00 PM | show profile | email poster Sigh. I wish some of these snippers were around here. Ditto on the bad dye job -- when the dark parts at the back of my cut weren't lightening up, they just kept dabbing on more bleach or whatever it was and left it longer and longer -- I came out with my hair fried and now four weeks later it's thinned out and strawlike. Very disappointed -- so much for my Steel Magnolias salon. I saw a friend today who has let her hair go silver and with a gorgeous cut, it looks wonderful. I guess at 46, maybe I'm old enough to do the same. My husband finally has some snow in his beard, so maybe people won't think I'm his mum... ------ http://writingporch.blogspot.com/ http://familyrootsandwings.blogspot.com/ |
