While sitting in the salon chair and discussing my hair:
- Whoa, look at all my split ends. This is embarrassing. I really have to part ways with my beloved hair straightener.
- Should I get bangs? Dye my hair? Crop it short? Get a freaking buzz cut?? Let’s go crazy!
- On second thought, that’s definitely a bad idea. Ditch crazy, say hello to same old boring me.
While getting my hair shampooed:
- Don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep –
While sitting back on the chair and staring at my wet-hair, cape-covered self:
- What’s that thing in the mirror? Oh. Wait. It’s me. Have I always looked this ugly?
- Why does the lady beside me look so pretty??
While my hair is getting blow-dried:
- Do I have to talk? I hate small-talk. Or can I bring magazines? Is that rude?? Is it too quiet in here or is it just me?
- Why is my hair so frizzy, it’s literally an Afro!
- My poor hair stylist, having to deal with the abomination on my head…
While my hair is getting chopped:
- It’s not short enough, still not short enough, for goodness’ sake I’m paying out of my weekly food allowance for this and – Great. Now it’s at chin-level. Oh well, hair grows back right?? *cries*
- *stomach growls* I should have eaten before this…
- *stylist puts 10 products in my hair* Man, I really need to put more effort into my look!
- There’s a hair on my nose and now it’s itchy and I neeeeeed to scratch it but I don’t want to bother her…Ugh, here comes a sneeze!
- *looks down at model in magazine then back to mirror* I’ve had better days…
While looking at the final reveal:
- *Holds a hand mirror to see the finished product* Ummmm ya that looks…great! Ha. Ha.
So I just got a haircut and this is basically my thought process each time. I’m exaggerating a little here, obviously. You know me. My haircut this time was actually nice and I’m happy with it, but there have been other times in the past where I definitely regretted the decision of staying well under budget. Little tip: don’t do it. It’s not even worth the little money you spent on it. Anyways, does this remind you of any haircut horror stories?
Forever Frizzy,
this is so relatable! especially being forced to small talk and getting an itch on your nose – happens every time

I love that first picture XD
I honestly have never had my hair cut. I’ve had it styled and blowdryed, but I’ve always cut my hair myself. I have done both good jobs and bad jobs, but it’s so expensive to get it done professionally that I always think screw it I’ll do it myself. But on those bad days…I only ever trim though. I just tried to give myself a fringe once, and please don’t try ever try to cut your own fringe XD XD

Omg 😂😂 Well like I said, you just have to remind yourself that hair grows back 🙂 At least you save a TON of money!! And too late for that advice – I used to have bangs and I trimmed it myself every few weeks, and one time let’s just say I went a little too crazy…!

This is amazing and your drawing is so cute! My thoughts exactly about getting haircuts. I have very long, thick curly hair, and I haven’t cut it for like 6 years… that’s probably bad. But I trim it myself so I don’t have that many split ends… 😉 Loving your blog!
