My daughter sent me (via cellphone) a picture of me while talking on the phone. I did not know that she took the pic but when I saw it, I had to find the pic of when a beautician cut 6 inches from my hair in the first week of June. I took the June pic because no one believed she could do that so I was mms'ing all day.
It’s long so bare with me
(Backstory) In June I needed a trim so I asked a relative of mine (beautician) if she could clip my ends for me because I did not want to clip too much as I have done so previously. I explained to her what I meant by clip and she agreed. She has done my hair before; cut in layers, clipped ends, relaxer and so forth. So a few days later she washed, conditioned and applied leave ins. She began to roll and I stopped her to remind her of the clipping and I continued to read my book ………. I got from under the dryer and she unrolled but she picked up the scissors again and clipped some more (I could not see) but once I heard too many clippings I sorta turned so I could see and then she put the scissors down and began to wrap my hair. She unwrapped my hair after 10 min under dryer.
FYI – after both cuts(clipping) there was no hair to be found anywhere on the floor.
My hair was horrendous. She said she will smooth it out with the flat iron and she began to do so. Her phone rang and she was trying to talk and do my hair at the same time til I motioned to her to get off the phone. She got off phone but kept yacking to me. By this time my book is down and I am not pleased so I grabbed her hand and told her I hated my hair and I would finish it when I get home.
She only said ok since she had to leave in a hurry anyway. I made it home began to wrap my hair immediately, noticed it was shorter but my brain would not accept that so I thought nah couldn’t be. I got under the dryer for 5 min then unwrapped my hair in horror to see shoulder length hair from mid back length hair. Plus it was chopped up meaning all different lengths everywhere. Like a zig zag or something.
I cried, call dh, he came home hugged me like I was an infant and kept apologizing for what I don’t know
erplexed. I called her a week later because if I would have called her then I would have cursed her and I really did not want to step out of line with GOD.
When I called, it’s like immediate tension on the phone so that let me know she was just waiting on this phone call. I explained to her the situation, she apologized a million times and offered to do my hair for free until I said stop and promised she could grow my hair quicker than I could. She begged me to give her another chance to fix her mistake. I said ok but never went back because I figured I grew it all this time what did I need her for. So today when I compared the two pics from only June to September I was really happy about the growth and I think I will be back mid length hopefully by my birthday 02/2010.
I will take some real pics, lol soon.
Edit: Both pics are on blow dried hair no flat iron. But the first pic was in a pony tail and the last pic was right before I flat ironed to check the length.

lol:. I needed to go to the bathroom but I just had to get the info before going, but now that I know it's a KISS regimen.....I guess I'll just keep KISSing. Great growth though!
