Tunes - get a can of Bedhead, or something similar, and experiment. I'm sure you'll be able to find something you like.
How can a bob go wrong? Hard to imagine...

Goddammit, my roomie needs the phone line so I have to go. This is terrible for several reasons: first, I felt like the honor of becoming a Full Member was finally going to happen for me, I was within spitting distance of the finish line, I could hear the roar of the crowd in the distance, and I could see Rileydog rushing to the finish line to make fun of me for still not being a Senior Member...but alas, glory will have to wait. More frustratingly still, it appears that mr. lookslikeme is somehow going to pull ahead of me in the post count today. How is this possible? I could have sworn I was like 60 posts ahead of him just a few short days ago. This is an outrage.  Cheers, M |

But see, that's the entire problem - it's not really a bob anymore! It kind of is - I don't know how to explain it. Before it was a bob that was sort of jagged and choppy and looked great flipped up or straight down. Now it just seems - rounder and puffier or something, and not jagged and choppy, just sort of smooth. Which would be OK if I didn't know about how great it was the other way.
But the problem is, I've been trying to work with it and nothing looks right. It's OK flipped up a bit with the flatiron, but not the way it used to be. And it just looks silly gelled or anything, and it's too short for a ponytail.
I'll get over it, I swear I will. I just need to vent, because heaven knows S. is pretty sick of me moaning about it.

You'd think if it looks puffy or round then some products would help - maybe giving it a wetter look? But I dunno, maybe it needs thinning, if it's a bit too bouffant.
As for the jagged look, any amateur could inadvertently achieve that for you. Give Steve the scissors and let him loose ;D
How many posts am I behind Mary now? Must... keep... posting.

Well, obviously it's three now I posted that. It's not as if I can't count.

I don't know what to tell you, J. She said she thinned it out (I have fine hair, but lots of it), and I can see that in my bangs... but the rest doesn't look any different than it did before I went in - and what's the point of getting a haircut if not for an impressive change?
I'm certain the flipped-out thing is best right now, because it makes it straighter and sleeker and not so pouffy. I'll keep trying other things.
OK, I'm done. I have other things to worry about - like the fact that I'm the dummy who wore suede slides because it was nice out this morning - only to see that it's now pissing cats and dogs. Ho hum.

Slides? Aren't they things that little kids hurtle down, thus raising the momentary hope that they might land head first on concrete and stop yelling for a few minutes?
What are suede slides?

OK, why can't I get a picture to work? Anyway, if you care, go to www.google.com, type in "slide sandals" and go to images - that's all you need to know. |

Okay, gotcha now. Not sure what we call them over here. Probably slide sandals, and I'm just too thick to realise it.

Bedhead REEKS. I'll never put that shit in my hair again. Egh. Used to use a lot of it when I had that, er...bedhead look going on all the time, before I grew it out.

Yeah, I'm using it right now. Another 4 weeks before I can think about ditching it, though I could switch to gel and go with a different look if the smell bothered me. But otherwise it'd be too straight and neat at the sides right now, and too fluffy on top.

Oh lord bad hair cuts. I had one that turned me off so much I stopped salon visits for over honestly close to twenty years.
Ended up either having a trusted friend or hacking my self (not that hard to cut a simple straight line)
The turn off event……. I was living in London (Ontario not UK) and I went to a salon for a simple long shag (it was 79 so excuse the style choice) well anyone remembering a shag knows those layers are supposed to move.
The salon was over the moon with themselves as they’d just hired some guy from NYC (supposedly a huge deal for them).
Any how I got him & not only did this “shag” not have layers but he pulled the living hell out of my scalp with every move he made & used so much spray that one the bus ride home, sitting at an opened window not one F*cking strand moved.
I jumped straight in the shower then was pissed for ages at having spent (what was then) big $$$ for an absolute shit job.
Never trusted a hairdresser again, till now. I’ve found a great honest one who uses the bone structure rule.
In other words she’ll tell you right out if you either do or don’t have the face for a certain cut instead of just taking your money & making you look horrid.
Gotta like that.
