*sigh*

your not alone. i have cried after so many haircuts its not even funny!

That has happened to me. I’m tellin’ ya, some hairdressers aren’t happy unless they can chop off too much! How about a lovely scarf wrapped around your head? xo

Oh, that is the worst. I am so sorry! Want us to go shave the stylist bald on your behalf? And dye her scalp lime green? *hugs* Be well,

Oh…. how miserable! I hope that it will grow quickly . And yes, how about a scarf? They can look so fetching.

I’m pretty sure every single woman has been in your shoes and we all know how awful it is 🙁 I have had some really dreadful haircuts before too. *empathetic hug*

Oh No!! Of course it will grow out…but I know that doesn’t help at the moment. I empathize with you. I’ve had horrible haircuts, too.

If anybody asks, just tell them “I had to get it cut for a mission. Can’t say more.” and change the subject. (HUG)

You’re too gorgeous to look bad even with a bad haircut. But wigs are fun too.

Boy a bad haircut can really throw one off.

it isnt vain. it would be vain if you were entirely about appearance and nothing else. but it does hurt a lot when your hair isnt right and you are all upset because it isnt *you*. because it isnt. a good hairdresser is worth her weight in gold. I have definitely cried over my hair being messed up before. hair is important. not compared to some things, i suppose, but it matters. so have some large doses of chocolate, and wait for the storm to subside a little bit. if you need to do something, you can make a decision about what to do later. sorry, honey.

i always wonder why hairdressers dont listen to their clients. just a slight trim does not mean 3 inches no.

…I wanna know what Don said when he did see it! You’re so darned cute that I’ll bet even a bad haircut would look cute on you. Really. Hopefully it just needs a couple of days to adjust before it starts “acting” right. Know what I mean? After getting a drastic cut it takes a few days for the hair itself to get used to the length. Did that make any sense?

I had my hair cut yesterday. Why is it the woman never listens when I say leave the top part long? I look like I am wearing a crown. :o(

I definitely sympathize – mine currently looks like someone cut it with pruning shears, despite the fact that it too the hairdresser FOREVER to get it to her liking. Argh. It does grow, though….

Vanity, thy name is woman.

Aw….I can only imagine. However, you have a gorgeous face, and that will hide it. …feeling for you though…

You’re still funny even shorn. We’d probably not see what you’re seeing but just the beautiful soul beneath the package. Kari you don’t even need hair. xoxo Please give yourself a hug for me – you’re probably crying more for all the huge changes in your life these last couple of years – be patient this is massive this time when the kids don’t need us anymore. Such freedom and such loss all rolledtogether – it’s confusing! I cry spontaneously from time to time and see that I probably always will when I remember them or see photos etc. – and learn to like even that aspect of myself. My hair is almost white in places and my eyes are shrinking but I like myself anyways I have become my own best friend. We would laugh over tea and haircuts together if miles didn’t separate us.

Oh, ho, I wish I’d seen this before! I’m sure your hair is grown out by now to where you’re more comfortable with it… still, I’ll bet this sort of *hairpenstance* is something with which most women can identify! I sure can… (and when it DID, my friend, instead of offering reassurances, offered me a DRINK!! That was NOT helpful!) So, BIG props to Don for his reassuring sympathy, especially since, well… YOU know… Heeheehee!
