Dear Hair "Masters",

You may be "Masters of style for (my) hair", but you certainly can't cut it right. Oh yes, I know I told you last year that I'd never be back, (after I had to go to Utah and get it cut cute, and the lady put this gold strand in my hair and said it was "all the rage" in Utah, but really, I just looked like a disco fool.) but I thought I'd give you a second chance. Because I'm nice like that. I thought to myself, "I bet they could just do a simple bang trim real quick while I wait for my son." But I was mistaken. You cannot do simple bang trims. At least not for adults. F.Y.I., I don't appreciate having to walk around for the next few weeks looking like this,


















(Oh how I wish I was kidding.)
You cannot swish bangs like that to the side. There's just no hiding them. I can't even raise my eyebrows and reach them.
So, you give me no choice. Now I'm really never coming back.
Before I leave, though, may I suggest a new slogan?
How about,
"Hair Masters - Because everyone that went to beauty school deserves a job."
Or maybe,
"Hair - We'll mess it up every time, but we've got great magazines."
I'm just sayin'.

-Me

I like your first slogan. I guess even the "c" students deserve jobs... somewhere.

I had hair like that around the summer after second grade because I let my friend Jill cut my bangs for me. They were about that long for my school pics the next fall.
At least I didn't have to pay Jill!

If there were a Museum of Bad Art (in Dedham, MA, if you're interested) equivalent for photography this would be a wonderful submission! I literally spit out my jello when I scrolled down to read and saw that. There should be a rotfl equivalent for that. somjlol or something.
Thank you for the laugh. Oh, and I can't wait to see your bangs!

It was nice of you to give them a second chance, even though they obviously didn't deserve it. I bet you're still just as beautiful as always! :)

"Disco Fool" cracks me up. Sorry.

You should go to that super place where Superman gets his hair cut. I had to secret shop them and they all did a great job.

Yvonne said...

Because I have such horrible eyebrows, if my hair lady did that to me, I'd be in hiding for a month ; )

I'm sure you still look as cute as can be.

Nathan said...

Oh, ouch. That's why I like being a boy. I let it grow until I can't get it to mash into the right shape, then my wife shears it all off (like a sheep).

Rinse.

Repeat.

Stop complaining! Remember what happened to me and my fateful encounter with Craptastic Sam's? Yeah, I got a mushroom/mullet combo, a MUSHMULLET, if you will, when all I wanted was a cute and sensible Mom Bob.

I have it much worse than you. All sympathy, condolences, salon gift cards, and psychological therapy should be directed to ME!

Who cares about the hair when they have great magazines?

Hair salons don't deserve second chances. I think you should trash the place and send them a message...but remove all of the magazines first.

Klin said...

I gotta quit reading the comments first. It washes my brain clean of ideas due to your commenters being fabulous.

Boo for the bad hair cut. I don't give salons a second chance. I'm too protective of my hair.

A mother heart said...

I sincerely hope you didn't pay them to do that to you.
And where do you find all the cool pictures that you put on your blog? They are perfect every. time.
As for slogans: It's just hair-- It'll grow!

And another note: word verification is gomeded.
As in, When you go to get your hair cut at Masters, gomeded. Because you will need the sedation.

Hair Masters, Because There Has To Be A Name For Those Who Finished Last.

I've given that hair cut to two of my three children. More than once.
I bet you look as cute as they did. :)

Super Happy Girl said...

Oh Carrot, you can't never look like a disco fool!

Let's see a picture. It can't be that bad. C'mon! It's called MASTERS for a reason. right? right?

As Told By Molly said...

First off, anything that comes with the reassurance of "All the rage in Utah" should be avoided. And secondly, bangs are the reason I grew my hair out. They are too risky.

Tarnation said...

Right on, Molly. Right on. Carrot, next will you be sporting a bumpit?

Tarnation said...

I forgot to say "bless your heart." :)

I hate bad haircuts. And I hate it when I say I am never going to some place again, and then I go back and wonder what I was thinking.

Lisa said...

I should not have read this. I am thinking of getting my hair cut and actually have an appointment. I am scared. :(
