    well the first thing you need to do when you go off to college or whatever is go to a salon (or not - it does get on my nerves when they try to sell the shampoo)

I am not so experimental with my haircut since some man cut my hair unevenly and acted like it was a style move instead of his ineptitude. But the salon is good - the place I go to now has all these great smells and I get a free head massage with every cut using aromatic oils. Although, I must say, with this part time work and student life, I may have to cut back.

    Is that an aveda salon? I went to one once and got a hot towel and a head massage. It was wonderful however the haircut wasn't great so I never went back.

    Actually, yes it is an Aveda salon. Luckily, I found a good person who knows how to cut hair (at least mine anyway), but I have received a crappy hair cut from another Aveda salon so I understand that. They can put all kinds of good smells on your head but if your haircut doesn't work, then it's no good.

    I love going to salons because I love having people play with my hair and the smells are nice too. I go somewhere different everytime because when I decide to get my hair cut, I want it done now, within say, 15 or 20 minutes, I don't have the patience to call a specific person or salon and make an appointment. I'm all about instant gratification.

    I dont know what to get done. Trimmed and my layers trimmed but i dont know if i'm going to get a colour of copper highlights and styled...

I got bangs and it's way shorter now. If I was at home I'd post before and after pics.
    Yep that sound like my life. The reason why i last went to a salon back in 2001 was because my college friends made me.

    btw, what are bangs?

    I usually go to the salon about once a year. I've been going to the same place and use the same person for a few years now. I go to JCPenneys. Its a department store but they have a salon in it. I found this really good hairdresser there and everytime I go there she remembers me. She knows exactly how I want my hair done. I have never been disappointed with her. Every time I go she can tell I trimmed by own bangs.

    My English friends call them 'fringe' if that helps. Maybe you're more familiar with that term for them.

    I should have known it was trouble because the aveda hairdresser kept saying my previous hairdresser made a lot of mistakes but I think my previous hairdresser followed the curl of my hair whereas the aveda guy probably did it technically correct as if I had straight hair. Thats my hypothesis at least.

    You've got me thinking that I should try an aveda salon in my new town.

    good call, I was trying to think of another term besides bangs. Couldn't pull it. I think I have heard the term fringe before, though.

    I always wind up growing my hair almost to the middle of my back and then donating it to chop it real short. Everytime I chop it, I tell myself that I want to keep growing it long again and not chop it. It's getting to be the chopping time again.

    My cousin's wife has her hair nearly to her knees! No joke! It's beautiful, but she once went to the beach and didn't bother to put it up. She spent two hours that night trying to comb it out.
