I like getting salon services actually! For me it's a nice treat to get a brow wax or a pedicure or a massage. I don't think it's a chore at all. :)

Same here :). I enjoy it every two or three months, although they can't do much for my hair any longer except for tinting. They have denied cutting twice now, because my tips are healthy (although bleached a number of times) :cheese:.Quote:

What's DE? :)Quote:

I don't like shoulder much either. I secretly liked pixie better than shoulder - it was faster to dry, easier to style, and felt sassy and edgy and daring. Shoulder is slow to dry, difficult to style, and feels very conservative on me. But I'm hanging in there because I'm sure I'll feel much less conservative as it gets longer and longer ... and a fully expressed wave pattern will be easier for me to work compared to shoulder where everything ends mid-wave in a sticky-outy cowlick.
I totally agree. It's so hot here right now, that I'm secretly wishing for a super short pixie. A "longer" pixie is unpratical on me. I love going to the hairdresser. Having to go there every 3 to 4 weeks would be lovely.
But, if I'll make this reality, I'll never have long hair. After a few pixie weeks, I'll probably forget about going to the hairdresser all the time and start growing it out again. It's completely crazy.
just some advice as i was stuck at this length since middle school until like freshman or sophmore year in college! i kept cutting it in frustration or dying it or watvr came about instead of being patient.i learned this last November to self trim aftr my lAst salon disastr id advice to avoid salons and invest on some scissors and search online to trim your own hair its really easy and you are in control of how much is cut. most stylists get scissor happy or advise to come monthly. hair only growths about .5 inch per month so if u trim monthly yull cutt of all the growth.
wen u tie ur hair in a low ponytail pull it down evenly retighten it toward the ends if necessary go as low as u can and the remaining strands cut to get rid of the split ends its the best thing i learned .Ill try and find the link to the video so u can get a better idea. u can skip trim as 6-10 or more if ur hair is still healthy at the ends no need to trim often it varies on how much heat and chemicals u use. happy growing :)

I even like getting my hair cut. (Yes, really) I like having someone else wash my hair and I love the scalp massage that goes with it!
I like getting my hair cut too... I like feeling pampered. :crush:
For now I'm satisfying the pampering urge with other stuff since my trims are only once a year while I grow I out.
