FIND A NEW STYLIST.

That's all

But no, really. A good one will listen to what you want.

And stay away from Supercuts and Great Cuts.  They are hair butchers.

Hi NB,
Thanks but I am afraid the pic is not me, darn! I would like to have long thick hair like I used to. I always wore mine long when I was younger-at least shoulder length. Well, now mine is recovering from a bad cut last year from someone else I had never met before-won't make that mistake again. I am happy with the repair job a friend of mine did last week. I can't wait to see what it looks like next year. By the way a few years ago I had to take some meds that made my hair fall out and still has never fully returned. I am just glad to have what's left!

I'm going back quite a few years now, but I had a couple of really nice cuts from Supercuts!

I haven't had my hair cut now for about 5 years so it's longer now than it is in the pic.

Ahhhh you all make me wish I could turn back to the times when i had hair up to my ass but i ruined it by making them into dreads ah the foolishness of youth i plan to get extensions when i finally transition

Did you say those magical words?
"I am a woman and I want a woman's hairstyle."

it doesn't sound like she got a man's hairstyle, the stylist just cut a little more off than what she wanted. i mean, hairdressers don't take a ruler, and cut the hair to the exact length. it could happen to anyone.

I wasn't a mens cut she just took far too much off.   I don't think she would have given a male cut considering the heels, make up, clothing and jewelery I was wearing at the time!

you just have to make it very clear to her how much you want cut off. it might even help if you brought in a picture of the style you are going for. the more you go to her, you will eventually get used to how she does your hair.
