Your hair is straight, I'm sure you will be able to have a wedge again in no time. I'd have to pump up the sophistication for the next few weeks so no one mistakes you for an undergrad. I am all too aware of that possibility!! How about a little make up or lipstick if you do that? Your clothes are already killer so I'm sure you don't need any help in that area! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413714 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 13:07:27 +0000 KikiG 413714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have beautiful hair! And, yes, the previous bob was better, but this one is still very nice, just not optimal. Happily, hair is famous for growing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413669 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 08:05:37 +0000 rute 413669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's lovely but I agree the previous one alongated your neck.. it will grow fast! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413660 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 07:20:36 +0000 Deborah 413660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kate as a "bob" sister I completely understand the dramatic difference that a slight change in length can make. But may I say you look really gorgeous and it will grow quickly. When hair is short a couple of weeks growth makes quite a difference. I love it. Maybe take pics 5 &amp; 6 to show the hairdresser next time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413654 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 06:30:58 +0000 puffenstuff 413654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually think it looks quite pretty on you but there's nothing worse than feeling naked without your extra hair length. I always find mine sits funny too just after I have it cut and takes a 2-3 weeks to settle back down. </p> <p>I like your positive attitude about it, I was almost in tears and throwing things around the bathroom when it happened to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413651 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 06:15:30 +0000 AJ 413651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The new cut doesn't take away from your radiant smile!</p> <p>Can you get a similar lengthening effect with dangle earrings until your hair grows out?<br /> <a href="http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/jewelry/shop_bymetal/rose_gold/earrings/PRD~921737/24k+Gold+Over+Silver+and+Sterling+Silver+TriTone+Bead+Chain+Drop+Earrings.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStor.....rrings.jsp</a><br /> <a href="http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/jewelry/shop_bymetal/yellow_gold/earrings/PRD~252522/18k+GoldOverSilver+Cubic+Zirconia+Briolette+Drop+Earrings.jsp#" rel="nofollow">http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStor.....rings.jsp#</a><br /> <a href="http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/jewelry/shop_bymetal/yellow_gold/earrings/PRD~264031/18k+Gold+Twisted+Ribbon+Drop+Earrings.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStor.....rrings.jsp</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413645 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 05:48:22 +0000 Kari 413645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kate, I am sorry that your haircut is not quite what you'd hoped, but I think you are being too hard on yourself. Compared to the longer hair you had previously, the length of the bob, and especially the choppy bang, really highlights your pretty (hazel?) eyes. Truth be told, I do prefer the cut of the asymmetrical bob because the layering is just ridiculously awesome - but I like the new cut, too! Keep playing with it, and try different products/styling techniques. Build up some volume, or use a texturizing pomade to add some definition. You might surprise yourself by finding a style that you like - even as you're growing it out to your preferred length! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413643 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 05:23:50 +0000 Katiepea 413643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I've had just the same thing happen to me this past week, I think there must be something in the air! Bring on a month, I say! </p> <p>In the meantime know, that I like that your hair has a "style" to it - I personally prefer it be a little short than being unkempt and all over the place! (That's what I keep telling myself anyhoo. :-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413641 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 05:19:43 +0000 Freckles 413641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry you're not happy with it. Hopefully in a few days the two of you will have made friends.</p> <p>I don't think it's bad at all, just different from what you expected. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413616 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 04:41:43 +0000 Jenava 413616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the old style was cuter...but I think you can play with the more vintage-y style of your new cut (until it grows enough to change it). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413606 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 04:21:09 +0000 Angie 413606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see a gal with a fun and fresh short bob and KILLER smile.</p> <p>Gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413589 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 03:35:45 +0000 Kate 413589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gingko, no, the stylist who did the bob in 5 and 6 has since graduated from the Aveda Institute where I get my hair cut. Also, the problem is completely my fault. The stylist actually cut the front longer to begin with, and I asked her to cut it shorter because I wanted to try something new. Lesson learned! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413587 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 03:29:43 +0000 Ginkgo 413587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not to worry, you're still looking good and you can fix it on the next haircut. Was this the same stylist who did your previous haircut?</p> <p>And I envy your straight hair , it falls in a beautiful line -- mine just wiggles off in a half-hearted wave. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413585 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 03:21:48 +0000 catgirl 413585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks fine and will grow to what you want very quickly! I prefer my hair longer in front and a bit below my chin too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413584 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 03:21:01 +0000 bj1111 413584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love those learning experiences...builds...uh...character. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-oops#post-413581 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 03:12:08 +0000 Kate 413581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I decided to chop off some hair and go back to the bob. Last time I had a bob it was rather inverted/stacked, with the front of my hair below chin length. This time I decided to go a bit shorter in the front. This was a mistake. </p> <p>The girl who cut my hair styled it by curling it under, and when I left I looked like Anna Wintour (but with different bangs). I've tugged at my hair enough to make it lie a bit more straight, but the cut just isn't my best. My previous bob elongated my neck, whereas this one doesn't and highlights the area under my chin. </p> <p>Luckily, it should look much better in a month or two, and I now know never to go this short in the front again when I get a bob! Hooray for learning experiences!</p> <p>pics 1-4 are today's haircut, 5 and 6 are the old bob. Oh the difference a couple inches in the front makes...</p> <p>ETA: photos now hidden for privacy reasons </p>
