I told the hair dresser I wanted it shoulder length when curly. Told her THREE TIMES. She just kept cutting and cutting. The cut is amazing. Looks great straight. But, it's shoulder length STRAIGHT. I just know I'm going to be a poodle when I wash it. I'm so scared! . If I end up with a 'fro I will NOT be happy!!! I think it's even too short for a pony tail .

Sucks doesn't it? The first time I chopped my hair, it was really nice. I cut off like 6 inches, and it looked great. Note to curly girls: NEVER chemically straighten ur hair! It fried my ends and when I did my hair curly again, the ends were stick straight so I HAD to chop my hair. Anyways, the next time I cut it, like 2-3 inches got cut. My boss did it...she literaly chopped alot. Looked great straight, looked like a poof ball curly.
