I'm off to get my hair cut again. I've gotten it trimmed twice since I chopped it all off, and neither cut has been as great as that first one. I've tried to describe to the hairdresser that I'd like it just like the first time, but I think he's one of those artistes who takes creative license with what you tell him and "runs with it," thinking, "She's going to love this!"
If I wanted it to be short on top and long in the back, I would have told you that's what I wanted.
I like my stylist, though -- he's a very likeable, happy, chatty, hug-you-when-you're-done person (but I wouldn't call him annoyingly perky, just one of those people who you can't see anyone not liking) -- so I find myself calling him up for an appointment every time anyway.
Current mood: Nervous
Update: The artiste did exactly what I described to him this time: feathered around my face, big and round and helmety, don't touch the bangs. Two thumbs up. [Aside to Pinky: Not that I'd want to, but if I colored it blue, I could be Rei from Neon Genesis Evangelion in a cosplay contest. YES.]

Do they use lawn shears?

You would be welcome at my neighbor's house. They sit outside on their porch and give each other mullets with clippers.

Yeah, I don't think he intended it to turn into a mullet, but it was growing faster in the back than in the front, and after a month's growth, it practically was!

Business in the front, party in the back! Sorry your hair didn't turn out the way you wanted it to. I go through that a lot. But lucky for us, it grows back fast.

"short on top and long in the back"?
Dear God -- you have a MULLET?
