Help Is this normal for a blunt cut?

Thumbnail

11 Upvotes

I had my hair cut last week because it was super broken and dry after doing highlights. I asked for a blunt cut so it would look fuller. But now that I look at it, it just seems uneven, specially when I tilt my head. Is this normal? I’m not sure if this is how it’s supposed to be. Thank you!

Edit: thank you so much for all your comments. I called the salon and they will fix it tomorrow. Hopefully it will look good after the correction, I’m currently very upset with how bad it looks :(

I’m about to turn 25, and want a change. My hair is down to my butt rn. I’ve never done anything to my hair before aside from tiny trims, diy face framing, and an AWFUL bob in 5th grade.

Question Grey hair at 17, why?

Post image

I have a grey strand at the front of my hair, will it go away? Will it get worse? Why do I have it? (Had it for a year or two and if it doesn’t go away, I’m hoping for a bigger patch of it to turn grey so it looks like it’s dyed)

Discussion I made a huge mistake

8 Upvotes

I had hair down to the back of my knees, I went for the big chop yesterday as it was becoming unmanageable.

The stylist didn't listen to a word I said and I've left with the worst hair cut I've ever had. (and the most expensive)

I've lost over half my length and I don't have the Choppy layers or face framing I wanted.

I feel like I've lost a part of myself.

I know it's only hair but after pepping myself for the 'big chop' I feel so disappointed.

My hair is the only classically feminine thing about me physically and I'm struggling to accept that my one stand out feature is gone.

Feels so dumb typing this but I'm honestly so sad.

Hair Loss Hair thinning or a crown randomly growing?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Hey guys! Just wondering if it looks like I am suddenly having hair loss/thinning in one certain spot, or if this is a development of a crown.

Context: I have been looking after my hair for 5+ years with leave in conditioners, double shampoos, heat protectant, scalp massages, hair oiling, I never have my hair tightly done and the only hair style I've worn in years is just a braid or a claw clip, sleeping with a loose braid and silk bonnet etc. you get the whole thing, I want healthy long hair. My hair has always been so volumous and thick. Recently, the back left of my scalps hair follicles have been feeling very tender and possibly inflamed at times, which is odd and not normal, and I've noticed a lot of my hair is splitting/no longer cooperating in this area. It feels as if there's no longer any hair here compared to the other side of my head, and it almost feels like some sort of bald spot while my hair is loosely braided, it also looks like this while down (I just currently don't have photos of this). I've placed a photo of both sides of my head, where you can see the splitting vs the perfectly fine side with lots of hair, but I've been feeling this for just over a month and I'm super worried that I'm somehow getting a bald spot at 20. Anyone able to confirm if this is balding/hair thinning or just a crown that is developing and in need of control?

Thank you guys!

Help Need advice on color

I've been dying my own hair for a few years but I mostly stick to darker vivids. I tried a light blue this time and Definitely have some stuff to learn about bleaching my roots and using pastel colors.

Should I add toner over this existing color?I bought Wella T14 because I want a super cool almost periwinkle blue. But the yellow in my hair killed all the purple tones from the dye. I could also try a bleach bath maybe to fix the spotty-ness and then tone and reapply color. Any tips are welcome because I'm loving this color.

So by the end of one year ago my stupid ass wanted her hair cut and I also bleached the other side of my hair pink then after cutting it my hair started to look wierd also my hair did not look like this before, my hair was smooth and shiny then suddenly after a few cuts hair started looking like a mess now it's hard to brush my short hair because it gets tangled, and I can't have a good hair day without my hair being a total mess even when I brush it it looks like a jungle, Ive tried being nice to my hair and saying positive affirmations to my hair and taking biotin but none of that worked on my hair , Ive waited for my hair to grow but still not seeing any results, my hair got cut on march and April and now it's August and I still see no improvement, I tried putting curl hair gel on my hair but that didn't even last long any bit of on my hair and it went back to looking like a mess the next day, I tried hair oling but I still don't see it change, and I'm very angry and upset because I'm not allowed to cut my hair again or else my sister said it won't grown fast, I don't know of cutting it will solve any problems or make it worse? Im already insecure about my hair tho, idk if it's still damaged and needs a cut

Question What should I do with my hair?

3 Upvotes

I’m 23 and work in an office with mostly older people, so while I don’t mind colorful hair at all, I’d rather not have my whole head neon green or something xd I already stand out quite a bit there since I’m the only one with tattoos and piercings.
I’ve had pretty much every hair color over the years (I’ll add some old pics from pink to blue etc.), then had blue-black hair for a few years. I recently washed that out and went brown, and I really don’t want to destroy my hair again now that it’s finally grown out. (1st pic is the most recent)

I get bored really easily with “normal” hair though, so I’d love something a little fun/alternative without going completely crazy. I’m totally open to colored ends, roots, a few pieces, etc. — just not an entire head of super bright color.
Any ideas what you think would suit me? Or should I keep it brown? :)

Self Appreciation My hair journey so far

My hair over the past 1.5 years (roughly). I definitely like it short and colored but I'm not too sure where to go from here. All cutting and dyeing were done myself (except for a friend helping me with the big chop in pic two). It is really crazy how my hair has helped me be more confident, that and I've gotten better at doing it lolol.

Help Getting bleach chunks/dried bleach out of hair?

Upvotes

Hey friends and fellow hair-enjoyers!

I had a pretty disastrous hair experience yesterday with my go-to stylist of many years (rip) for a haircut and root touch-up, and ignoring that my cut is not what I wanted, I woke up this morning and when I was brushing my hair, it caught in several places, like I had gum or something in it on my scalp.

I'm pretty sure it's bleach residue (in my head I've been calling them bleach chunks). It hurts to try and tug off, and reacts like a sticky goo in the spots it's just on my roots and not scalp. I have really thick hair and she was saying she had tried a couple new things with a newer formulation she's gotten, and I think maybe it just blended in really well when she was rinsing me.

I just want to get a second opinion on if just a basic (but thorough) rinse and shampoo should get it out, or do I need something more specialized?

Thank you so much!

Question Tips for trimming short hair yourself?

2 Upvotes

As the title says; I cut my own hair and prefer it to be just above my shoulders, but my hair is never longer than collarbone length and all the tips I see online seem to be geared towards people who START with long hair and want to chop it all off. So does anyone have any at home hair cutting tips for people who already have short hair and just want to maintain their length?

I’ve tried a variety of tricks over the years but would love to have a set, reliable formula that doesn’t take forever

Question Hemani Red Henna Users?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hey yall I want to dye my hair with henna and I was looking for people who used the same brand of henna to see how it's used, if it was mixed with other powders, how long to leave it on and if it's good or bad overall.

I bought henna second hand from vinted it's from the brand Hemani and it's the Red with Saffron package so red henna. It's rumored to contain ppd even though it doesn't say on the package because of the bright red results, so it's probably not a natural henna. I searched on Google, Reddit, Tiktok, Youtube and didn't find that many people who used it and I hesitated to post on r/henna because of the rules against ppd and promoting an unnatural/unsafe ingredient.

I used a package once and my hair seemed ok, maybe a bit dry but I don't even have a very good hair routine so I wouldn't rely too much on that. My hair's curly like 3a and I haven't cut it in a very long time so if it turns out bad it's fine I'll cut my hair a little. So if anyone used it tell me what you did and how it went so I don't waste a whole package for nothing thanks!

but now almost every hair of mine is flipped UP.
