kingandyToday I decided to ask my mum to cut my hair, because it went quite well last time and, I don't know, it's insanity week or something.
I would be lying if I said I was ecstatic with the results. It's still drying, so it may improve, but I reckon it's far too short and the ends are too thinned-out. Apparently she was going for a "layering effect" but got a bit too enthused - she's basically managed to faithfully recreate that horrible awkward stage where it's still growing out and it's too long to wear down but too short to look like anything but a pathetic ponytail wannabe if you tie it back. (Come to think of it, I seem to recall that while I was initially growing it out I had to keep having trims specifically to avoid a layering effect.)
So, yeah, not best pleased. I think next time a professional touch may be in order.
I'll get some pictures at some point, because I crave ridicule.
