Really, really bad haircut. Seriously.

<p>ROFLMAO…S1 called us last weekend (on our way to Boston to bring him home from his summer job) and said he was about to dye his hair green, and did we have any objections? (This is apparently what passes for fun at a certain MIT dorm.)</p>

<p>DH handed the phone to me. “S, we were going to get family portraits done while you are home…” S: “Okay. I guess I’ll wait.” He told me a couple of days later that was the ONLY argument I could have made that was persuasive. We did have a chat about the commitment that kind of color is, and perhaps coloring a strand of his long, gorgeous hair to see if he liked it would be a better first step.</p>

<p>Definitely will have to send him the link to “don’t judge my hair”…</p>

<p>Colmom, I feel your pain (and love your sense of humor and adventure!). I have thin hair and it is darned tough to do anything except keep it short. A good friend of mine does a great job with it, and swore years ago she could make a perm work on my hair. She never tried THAT one again!</p>

<p>How could you look like Stooge Moe and Herman Munster? They don’t look anything alike.</p>

<p>Hey, pick one disaster or another!! ;)</p>

<p>The great thing about a bad haircut is that it doesn’t last very long.</p>

<p>hayalb: Think Herman Munster’s head (long neck and forehead) with Moe’s mushroom cap hair. Voila.</p>

<p>Well, at least I was able to unscrew the bolts from my neck.</p>

<p>^^^^^^
lol!</p>

<p>Don’t forget the plunging neckline to complete the hottie look…</p>

<p>I missed the oldfort #29 post. That is a really nice cut…do you have the kind of hair that could pull that off? I have Asian hair that has a wave in it–not sure whether my hair would behave enough for a cut like that.</p>

<p>I’d like a much shorter cut than the one I have (same hairstyle since 7th grade). But being “hair brave” takes more courage than what I have, apparently.</p>

<p>ellemenope: I think so. My hair seems to respond well to layering, and the layering softens my facial features. This new stylist has real potential. Now that I’ve lived with her fix a few days, I like more and more what she’s done. I’m excited to see what she can do once the back of my hair grows out some. </p>

<p>I saw another really cute cut on a fellow passenger at the airport the other day. Short and layered which she styled brushed forward to frame her face and a little Alfalfa-ish on top. Super cute. </p>

<p>Frankly, at this point, anything but the Moe Cut will do!</p>

<p>Colmom, sounds like your new stylist has some potential! </p>

<p>I guess I’m really, really lucky that my 3-ft long hair was hacked off by a true master of her trade. She moved away, but I’ve been going to Gene Juarez, and I have yet to get a bad cut. My poor H was not so lucky. Once he decided to get rid of the grays in his hair, and the color job turned into a 3-hr ordeal which, after 2 attempts, left him redheaded. Needless to say, he got lots of stares when he showed up at work the next day. He laughed it off saying that he was trying to rediscover his Irish roots :)</p>
