But I'm not going to take it out on my hair.
Huh, I guess I didn't get the quote thingy to work.
Hey, HazelBug! I also got a really short cut in the same season of the same year (March 2012). :D The only difference is that I never trimmed off the under layers... Looking at my shortest layers I also would've had shoulder length hair now, had I cut away the 'mullety' bits.Quote:

Thank you! It's nice not feeling like the only one growing out a crazy short haircut! I told myself that I wouldn't trim the back. But I couldn't take the mulleting. I like my hair all one lenth anyway. I know that mullet looking just becomes layers as it grows. I just didn't have the gumption to stick it out?Quote:

Like, I can feel it getting thicker, and the waves/curls around my face and crown have even started coming back, but it doesn't seem like it's adding any length. I don't want to get it thinned at all at this length, though that sometimes becomes a necessary evil at the longer lengths. But I just wish it would lay down a little better. I'm thinking of going and having the ends of the layers cleaned up and blended next week. That might help a little bit. Is anyone else fighting with hair that's acting like this?
My hair isn't thick but it has a curl/ wave to it at this length so it curls up at the bottom and is not even close to flattering ... at this length (3" until APL) .. I am just bunning it or braiding it. it's out of the way, I can't see and by the time I take the time to notice it should be at about BSL. Just put it up and pretend it's not even there.Quote:

But when I could pull it all out of the way and sort of forget about it, it got easier.Quote:

JessicaAnn, my hair isn't superthick, I've got layers and a rather deep U-cut that's probably preventing the triangle-shape.. It's not long enough to weigh itself down though, so if I've worn a ponytail it stays very flippy in the back and I can't wear it down! And I still can't do even a cinnabun that holds. Probably both because of thickness and lack of skill, haha. I'm so looking forward to be able to cinnabun it with only hair sticks.
