Welp, I got a haircut today.

Here's what I wanted---

Lots and lots of choppy, shaggy layers in the back and on the sides, and then blend them down so that the front would basically be all the same length. Slightly, slightly longer in front than in back; not inverted, but just a tiny, tiny bit longer (I'm terrified of anything even remotely resembling a mullet). And I wanted my bangs to be angled and blended into the rest of the layers.

Here's what she gave me---

Lots and lots of blended, razored layers all over (think scene hairstyle meets a pob), even in the front, except for one small strip of hair that was all the same length. My bangs are almost straight across, and they're way shorter than I wanted (she really, really, really, really, really wanted to give me straight across bangs. I guess she just couldn't get that picture out of her head). And even though it's longer in front, it's much shorter than I wanted in the back. Oh, and I guess she wanted to get rid of some hair products, 'cause she used basically every single one on her little stand and poured each one of them almost straight onto my hair. My head feels about 3 tons heavier.

Oh well, I guess I can rock it. I'll just have to embrace my scene/punk side and go crazyhead.
Here are some pictures. You can't really tell from these exactly what it's like, but here they are anyway.

(whoa, the bridge of my nose is really...straight. like...really straight.)

(Is it just me, or does my neck look really skinny?)

I'm actually growing my hair out. I was planning on this haircut being my Growing Out Haircut; the one that I get to wear for months and months while the hair goes through it's awkward stage. This is what I'm goin' for. I'll get it done like this when it gets shoulder length. And then when it gets even longer, I'll go from there. Shouldn't take too long, hopefully. My hair grows pretty fast, I think.
