You keep trying to fluff your hair in the rear view mirror on the way home from the salon. " It doesn't look that great..." You think, and when you get home and take a good look in the mirror, you confirm: " I got a bad haircut." What to do?
Step 1
First decide what you don't like about your haircut. Is it too short? Not short enough? Not even what you told the hairdresser to do?
Step 2
Straighten your hair if your hair is cut too short. With this method your hair will appear longer. Try method when you have curly or wavy hair.
Step 3
Rewash your hair if you don't like your hair after a visit to the salon. After you washed it you can restyle it yourself to the way your like.
Step 4
Curl or crimp your hair. If you want your hair to be shorter you can curl or crimp it. This will take some of the length off of it.
Step 5
Cut your own hair. This is rather risky but it may make your hair look better if it's a simple cut.
Step 6
Be patient. Wash your hair, give it a couple of days. Soon you'll be used to it and it'll look like normal.
Tips
- If you're getting a haircut for school or some occasion, make sure you get it done at least a week before you have to go there. This will give you time to get used to the haircut and figure out how to make it work.
