Bahaha, wow, do I have two radically different looks now! Here's the new short haircut, and then the wig with my work makeup. Turns out the wig isn't an exact color match (it looked like one in the shop but under brighter lights the difference shows), but it'll do for work. I don't think I'll ever be recognized outside of work from now on!

:blush: Thank you all!

I just went to an audition (missed the second one, oh well) and afterward I went to buy groceries in the work look, which includes a super-hot green glitter eyeliner you can't really see in the pic. Everyone in the grocery store was staring at me, three guys said hello, and one stockboy stared at me all the way down the aisle before blurting, "Can you help me find anything? I mean, can I help you?" It feels good to feel sexy again! Whew!

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I demand to see that appear in somewhere in your writing someday! If you don't, I'm stealing it!

Gorgeousness, btw!

No way! I think the cut is cute too. And I love the color. You look fab!

Trust me, "Can you help me find anything?" is going into something this very night! It has to! Totally the quote of the month right there, I'm still laughing. That poor kid. He looked about 18 with the usual teenage acne, and as soon as that left his mouth he turned purple and looked like he wanted to die. I really needed that kind of boost and I hope he's the type of kid that's laughing about it too right now.

I bought some old-fashioned sponge rollers and I'm gonna play with those tonight, see if I can get that vintage short look where it's smooth at the crown and fluffy-curled at the ends. Might be a way to glam up the short version if it works. If it doesn't work, I should have a very entertaining Little Orphan Annie 'fro!

WOW!

*puts jaw back in place*

I'm glad your fiasco turned out ok. The color is amazing and you look like a total knockout.

Oh Yek...the color is gorgeous.

I ahd the same freakin thing happen to me. I said I loved my volume, wanted to grow it out, just wanted my layers trimmed...

and came out with this awful mullet.

My hair was the only thing I really liked about myself...and my self-esteem went from "I am a sexy bombshell" to "I'm hideous"

Months later, the longest part is about shoulder length, but the shortest layers aren't about eye level (even my bangs are longer).

My best advice is to go to a dollar store, and buy a bunch of clips, headbands, and pins, and spend a little time playing around to find a style that will help ease you through that growing out period.

I know I found getting it all into an updo was impossible, unless I divided it into sections and pinned each section individually. Try hairboutique.com for some inspiration.

I found that wearing the top section up, the rest down, with a few wispy sections loose, hides the fact that I have a mullet, and makes me look deliberately sex-kitten/hot.

I'll take some pics of some styles I've managed to make look, maybe they'll work for you when you're not wigging-it.

I don't have a mullet anymore. The second haircut fixed that, and now I just have it short like in the pic at the top of this page.

Right now I've got sponge rollers in it and I'll see how that looks in the morning. I'm trying to do this:

OOps! Sorry Yek, that's why I should read EVERY post before I reply.

That cut is much better!

Maybe try hot tollers too, that always helped me get Marilyn-ish sexy hair...I went out and bought cheap $20, and they worked great.

:blush: Thank you! Glad to hear I don't look my age! Living in California was aging my skin really badly; when I moved there I was 25 and looked 18, and when I left I was 28 and looked 28. But a lot of moisturizer and humidity (with no smog) seem to have repaired the worst of the damage, thank G-d.

SERIOUSLY YA'LL... does Yek look 28, like even REMOTELY? Biach looks like she's pushing 21...barely.

Can you wear the wig and a small skirt and button up shirt and carry schoolbooks for me? You look like one fucking hella hot uni student who needs to get better grades. :drool:

Wow!!! See it's not that bad after all! It looks cute for everyday and then when you put the wig on it's like you turn into walking sex, so very hot!

Thank you, thank you! I hesitated to cut off the long part of the mullet, but I'm glad I did. Short hair is always better than a mullet. And I hereby swear not to laugh at someone with a mullet ever again.

Yeah but sometimes people wear a mullet on PURPOSE. They deserve to be laughed at.

Yes, but how would you know?

If you have a mullet like this http://home.columbus.rr.com/theehlens/images/mullet.jpgTHEN YOU KNOW IT'S THERE AND YOU F-ING CUT IT OFF! It's not an accident like yours!

Actually... I think those longer, sort of feathered, mullets are kinda hot...

They can look okay on certain skinny hipster lesbian types. Definitely not on me though!
