how to avoid a bad haircut
how to avoid a bad haircut

So if you follow my blog (which you obviously do if you're reading this. I've been harping on and on about how I wanted proper full blonde hair. I was sick of my dark roots and uneven colour and I wanted it lightened and the roots minimised. The long and the short of it is that I basically went into a different salon to where I normally go, told the woman what I wanted, she did my hair and I walked out and I was moderately happy with my hair. Only to get home and realise. NOOOOPE. This is NOT what I wanted. Basically yeah, it was BRIGHT blonde, I liked the lightness but it was way too yellow toned for my complexion and didn't suit my personal style or my eyebrows. I keep getting girls with blonde hair and dark brows saying it's fine, and its not so much the blonde and dark brows, its the tone that makes my brows look even darker than they are. Anyway, A dose of toner later and my hair is in semi presentable fashion but it's getting properly fixed on Wednesday. Im moderately happy with it now, its just too purple at the front and needs some lightness to frame my face a little more. I actually quite like the ashy blonde though!

So I thought I'd give you some thoughts on dealing with a bad hair cut or colour and reassure you that it's not the end of the world. I know someone saying "your hair is going to grow" isn't gonna help you if you're sobbing your heart out but… y'know.

Watch my video above for more tips but the basic just is below!

1. Remember your hair dresser isnt a mind reader
2. Bring in as many photos of what you DO and DONT want
3. Research the hair techniques/terminology you might need
4. Be Honest if you don't like it!
5. Go back and see what they can do about it if you arent happy.
6. Try not to worry!
