A haircut to forget

Ever had that feeling when you want to do something different about your hair or to your looks? Was there ever a time in your life that you wanted to look a certain way so bad that you obsess over it? Well, I have. 

There was this time in my life when I was soooooooo over my long, thick, curly hair. I had my hair up to my butt then, and It took me about 5 years to grow it that way. I know having long, thick hair looks beautiful on women, but when you've had the same hair for about 5 years, it gets kinda boring at some point. One day, I decided to do something about it.

Le me thinking of getting a cute haircut

I was thinking of getting one of those cute Korean-like hairstyles; specifically a curly bob with bangs. I was also thinking getting it colored to a deep shade of red. I could already envision myself in that kind of hairstyle. I imagined looking so chic and classy with it and that particular thought lingered for a long time until I eventually became so obsessed about it. 

So off I went to the parlor. I chose one that offered affordable (read: CHEAP) haircuts since I was on a tight budget at that time.  

As I entered the parlor, I was greeted by this chipper looking  hairdresser. He (he's gay, okay?) asked me what kind of haircut I want and I told him "Just cut it short, but leave some bangs on" I told him I wanted full bangs since I wanted to look cute like those Korean girls with their short bobs with bangs.

"Cut it short Le hairdresser!"

 Le hairdresser chopped off my locks and did a few snips here and there. 

*snip, snip snip* went his trusty scissors

*snip, snip, snip* it went some more

After a few minutes of witnessing the brutal murder of my hair. Le hairdresser showed me the final result of my haircut:

Le horror!

I did not look like the cute, chic Korean model in my mind. I looked horrible. Le horror! I could not even imagine how I was supposed to go out of the parlor looking like that. My hair looked like it was fashioned out of a cereal bowl. My life was basically over.

Le fuck!

I felt like I seriously wanted to go into hiding forever.

Got a haircut horror story? Why not share them? :)
