It's all gone......And I'm GLAD!!

I posted a couple of days ago about needing a stylist in AZ ASAP. Well, Balisi hooked me up with some contact info, but due to unexpected trip I had to make, I could'nt get to the computer (well, I could but the server wouldn't let me post or look at my PM's). SO I went out on a limb when I got to Phoenix and went to a shop I saw online:eek: !

I was very apprehensive, but I dragged my Phyto Relaxer, Sedu flat iron, heat protector, wide toothed comb and all and crossed my fingers that the stylist would be receptive.

I have to say, she was the hands-down BEST stylist I've ever been too!! She used my relaxer, had Keracare Humecto (in the tub) on hand that she uses regularly anyway, and listened to every word I said. We even had a little PJism in common. On top of that, she was RELUCTANT to cut as much as I wanted her to!

But, those sad, overprocessed sides had to go and being in the military I can't have any asymetrical sides, so CHOP!!

Nevermind that little thin patch, I slept funny and it won't smooth back down:perplexed

I was scared I would hate it because I have fat cheeks and short hair really showcases my big ol' head:lachen: . But this is the best cut I've had since about the 7th grade! (Like 10 years:look: ) I love it. I can't keep my hands out of it.

I am still a little sad at losing all my progress (I would have been shoulder length by now, or pretty durn close), but the end result helped me keep my spirits up. Now I have a fresh start and a great new stylist.
 
Congratulations! You look great, and your hair looks so healthy. Very cute hairstyle! BTW, I'm from PHX :D
 
The color, cut and style look great. Your hair looks healthy too. congrats on finding a trustworthy stylist!!!
 
I love your hair cut!!! that looks so pretty on your face.
I actually had my hair cut alot shorter than that a couple of years ago. Atleast you have a fresh start and should be back to your original goal in no time!!
 
Thanks so much balisi and everyone. I'm glad others think it's as cute as I do (you know you can't judge yourself as well as others cause ya might be a tad partial!)

Anky, the shop is called "Just for your hair salon", and the stylist is Lawana. She is such a sweetheart! She didn't make me feel bad about my damaged parts and was so attentive to all my concerns. She is even thinking about stocking Phyto cause she loved my results (I was almost 14 weeks post:eek: !) she said if I come back to her she will get it for me. i also got her started on the Sedu flat iron (I'm a walkin BSS!). She said she's gonna buy one.

This could be the beginning of a beautiful hair relationship. The only drawback is that I have to travel 3 hours to get to her. but I don't mind cause all the store I love are in Phoenix. There's no Bebe, Sephora, BSS, anything in Yuma; just Walmart and Best Buy and stuff. They doo have Ann Taylor loft though and they are having an awseome sale right now ($25 gift card for every $50 spent!)

Okay...done rambling! But thanks again everyone!
 
I'm in Phoenix too! I'm glad you found someone here you like. I have yet to find a great stylist here who works with natural hair but I'm still searching.
