Ugh!

So I know I said I would post pictures of my new haircut last night, but I spent last night crying over it. I HATE it. It's not at all what the picture looks like and I'm so disappointed. I can't believe my hair lady, who has always exceeded my expectations of what I wanted did this to me. It's really, really short in the back, almost shaved around my neck area (yuck!) sooooooo what I didn't want! It's not as gradual of a cut up like the picture shows, in fact its really blunt and looks like this huge shelf of hair on top of shaved head. Every time I look at myself I start crying. (It's not just hair to me like some may think...I don't want to walk around looking like an idiot.) So I'm going back today to have something done about it, though I don't know what. See, she called me yesterday and said that her son has Back to School night and if I could come in earlier. I told her I would do the best I could but I had to wait for my husband to get home from work to watch the baby. He tried but I just couldn't get there early. I got there right on time for my appointment. She told me she would not be able to dry and style my hair because of it. That should have been my red light right there, to just reschedule, but as disappointed as I was I sat in her chair any way (What was I thinking?!?!). We started chatting away as she cut and then after a few minutes, she had to answer the phone. I took that moment to reach up and feel what she was working on. OMG! It was so short! When she got off the phone I told her that it felt so much shorter than the picture and she said, "Really? I don't think so..." I decided that there was nothing to do now so I let her go on. When it was all done, I thought that it was just because it wasn't dried or styled. I went straight home and started to work on it...it never got better, just worse. The front looks cute, but the back looks terrible and the profile even worse. I keep going over and over in my mind what I should have said or done to make her understand the picture more..but I didn't think I needed to. This is the 2nd time I've had a bad haircut in my life (the first one not done by my current hair lady, I thought it was my punishment for the one time of not going to her), I thought I'd learned my lesson before. I'll probably be posting later to let you know how my dr. appt went...and if I feel better about it, a picture of my hair. *sigh*
