Hehehe, what haven't all of you been through...  Shocked
Still not old enough to have been having toooo many hair traumas, I wasn't to happy when my hair stuck in one of those nasty styling brushes. My (eeevil) curiousity made me go "oooOOOooo, what's this?" on such a brush, and the bloody thing stuck in my hair! My hair wasn't as long as now nor did I care as much, but it stinged quite  bit when I had to cut of all that was stuck... At the roots!!!  Cry

Have a lovely day!

When I was in high school and right out of high school, I used to dye my hair jet black (I was a heavy metal chick  Grin). When I got to be around 20, I was sick of the Josie and the Pussycats look, so I attempted to bleach out the black hair dye. To my surprise (horror), my roots turned a very light orange, and the rest of my hair was still jet black. I had to grow it out some and cut it off into a short bob.

The stupid part was a few years later, I dyed it black again! Roll Eyes

Re: Black hair dye
When i was younger i dyed my bra length brown hair black, permenant black (i was a punk lol not metal) when i got sick of it i let it grow out for a bit, but then my graduation came up, and it had only grown out 4 inches, so my hairdresser put foiles thru my hair, the top being black and the bottom of them brown, it looked like i had black hair with brown highlights. maybe next time you could try this too.

i have two bad hair stories, but i'll end on the good one.

first, last weekend i went to get my bra length hair trimed, and coloured, brown with red highlights. i was very precise when i told the stylist what i wanted. first thing she tried to do was put big chunks of red thru my hair!
i told her i wanted 4 inches of layering, cos i hate it too layered, my bangs trimmed and the colour done. first she burnt my head with the hair dryer, then she layered my beautiful hair to such a point that there is 8 inches between where the top layer ends and the bottom of my hair is, she cut my bangs really short and took a good 3 inches of my length, the red has faded (its been 5 days, and 2 washes) so its a copper colour, and i need to blow dry my hair to give it body, because she has left me with a third of the hair i had before. i came home and cried my eyes out, and my room mate took me back down and demanded my money back. she only gave me half what i paid.

i hate it, and i found this site whilst looking for tips on how to help it grow out faster,
your stories have helped my see i'm not alone, and that most stylist are scissor whielding maniacs, who only want to hack off our locks!!!

and for the nice story

when i was about 10 i got one of those round brushes caught in my waist length hair. it got rolled in up to my shoulder and i couldn't get it out, my mum tried but it was too knoted, she was about to take me to get it cut out when my brother walked in (he was 16) with his pocket knife.
he sat behind me and snapped the prush in half, with his bare hands, and then started cutting of the bristles of the brush with his knife. he sat there for 3 hours cuting and snapping the brush into 1inch pieces and untangling it.
when he was done, i had only lost an inch of length. it is the most patient thing i have ever seen him done, and till this day i am very grateful.

Thanks for ur stories, i feel less alone in my bad haircut misery!

Hi Coin,
Welcome aboard!  That story about your brother is truly a good one! Smiley  As for the other stories of the hairdressers who  got insane with those scissors........it's no wonder so many of us are always so particular about who touches our hair and we are even more picky about who is going to trim or cut!  Why is it so hard to find someone who will just trim when we say just trim or listen to the instructions about how we want our hair done??? Roll Eyes  Maybe the teachers and instuctors in "Beauty School" will give a class on paying attention to the client and what the client is saying.........

What a wonderful brother you have.  I don't know many people who would have had that patience.  I know what a nightmare that is when you get a brush tangled in your hair.  I've had it happen myself and have since sworn off brushes.  Cool

After reading some of these horror stories, i feel fortunate that my bad haircut is all that im going through.

I had someone thin my hair. It was already thin. I wanted it layered. My hairdresser took a razor comb and thinned my hair instead. I dont know what they were thinking--maybe a quick an easy way to "layer". 

She just brushed it through my baby fine hair and in moments my hair was ruined and thinner than ever before. It was awful and I still have emotional distress from it.

I'm currently trying to grow it all to one length but this is going to take a long time. Its been over a year and my hair is still only above my shoulders and a million  different lengths.   Sad

I just want more than anything for my hair to grow to one length and at least be healthy. Undecided  I'm just trying to be patient.

My wife and I went to great clips and I was going to get a hair cut and my wife was planning to get just a trim.

I got done first and then my wife was done not too long after.

But, the look on her face was not good Huh

The lady doing the trim said my wife had lots of split ends so 7" were cut off Angry  She went from about waist length to 7" shorter Cry
I was not too happy but I told my wife that her hair would eventually grow back and it has Cool

That was about five years ago or more.  And we do not plan to go there ever again.

I don't have a hair trauma story but I do have a barefoot story.  I used to love going barefoot but I can't do it much anymore because the lab I go to a lot you do NOT want to be walking around in barefoot (I build robots there, which is why I'm there a lot)

ANYWAYS, I had to run a timed mile at the beginning of the school year for Fitness Testing.  At this time I didn't have proper running shoes that kept my ankles from being sprained (they turn inwards when I run so I've sprained on 7 times and the other 5 times) so I decided to run it barefoot.  This was on a very hot day on one of those funny rubber tracks, and it was so hot I got huge (1-2 inches in diameter) blisters on the bottoms of my feet.  I was lucky it was Friday so I could go home and sit around all weekend. The funny thing was that I got my best time ever because by the 3rd lap it hurt so much I just wanted to finish!
