And at a certain length it goes crazy naturally curly. As an added bonus, it grows extremely slow. <BR/><BR/>So, depending on what length it was left after my last visit, it could be anywhere between 3 - 9 weeks before it needs to be trimmed again. Not really anyway to predict it. And I never really think about my hair at all until that one day I wake up and my curls have appeared overnight. Then, no matter how much hairspray I use, I simply cannot make it look like I ever even brushed it. <BR/><BR/>My curls have a mind of their own. The worst ones are near my temple where overnight they suddenly become wings. No big deal if I could wear a hair barrette. But I can't, cause they slip right out of my baby-fine hair in less than 3 minutes.<BR/><BR/>My point is, one day I wake up and have to get my hair cut that day. Period. :(Roseykrhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14716651248358184990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34053776.post-60475351796852660192007-12-12T12:14:00.000-06:002007-12-12T12:14:00.000-06:00Well, here's what I've learned after watching almo...Well, here's what I've learned after watching almost every episode of What Not to Wear and Shear Genius; 1. Be specific. Tell the stylist you only want 1/4" or 1" or whatever. Show them the length you want taken off on your hair. You can't be too clear on this one. 2. Take a picture of a desirable hairstyle - preferably with several angle shots. 3. Talk at length about what does and doesn't work for your hair - especially if you've never been to that stylist. 4. Talk about your lifestyle. If you want wash-n-wear, tell them. Discuss your normal beauty routine. 5. Go in with your hair styled as usual. That way they can see how it normally looks. Also, mention excessive shrinkage!<BR/><BR/>Hope that helps. If you've already done all these things, maybe it's time to find a new stylist and establish a relationship. Jumping from one to the other means no one has time to really learn about what your hair can and can't do.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18029700220157030241noreply@blogger.com
