What to Do If You Are Unhappy with Your Hair?

Face it, bad haircuts are a fact of life. We could have the most perfect new hairstyle in mind and give the stylist an extremely clear explanation on how we'd like our hair to look, but we could still end up with a totally unmanageable mop or a cut that's worlds different from the one we had in mind. This is particularly troubling if we're not just going in for a regular trim, but actually trying to establish a whole new look or imitate a celebrity's fabulous hairstyle.

The moment you see your horrid haircut, you're probably going to want to hide from the world for a while until your hair grows back. You're definitely not planning on facing criticisms or even jokes about the look you didn't want to have in the first place. Maybe you might even get a terrible urge to slam the stylist with a lawsuit for butchering your hair and ruining your life.

Dealing with a less-than-ideal haircut need not be so drastic. You don't have to let it make you miserable. Here are some things you can try to get through the ordeal.

1. Go back to the salon and tell them you're unhappy with the result of your haircut. Some salons would offer to undo the damage. You might want to consider getting another stylist though, because if your previous stylist already made a mistake, there's no guarantee that she can actually fix your hair.

2. If your hair's still long enough, pull it back into a ponytail. You probably wouldn't want to see your new haircut, so a ponytail's the easiest style to get it out of your face. But don't just yank it back carelessly. Even if your haircut is bad, you can still tie your hair back in cute, stylish ways.

3. Try to find if there are any people around you or even celebrities who sport a nearly-identical style as yours. See how they wear their hair and make the most out of your new look. Who knows? With a little work and attitude, it might end up looking fabulous after all.

4. Take care of your hair. Just because it doesn't look like your dream hairstyle doesn't mean you should neglect it. Give it a boost of shine with regular conditioning treatments.

5. Avoid chopping off your hair again, no matter how tempting it is to get rid of it! It just might end up looking worse.

I've tried the ecostyler gel and it works wonders on my sister’s 3b but on my hair it just makes my 4a hair shrink up and the 3c and 3b parts don’t’ really shrink up, so it makes my hair look odd. Also it seems that my hair at roots won’t get defined. I’m going to try some Miss Jessie’s products and see how that works on my hair but it probably won’t work and I’ll end up giving it to my sister because everything works on her hair L I think If something could weigh my 4a hair down so it hangs down like my 3a/3b hair I would be satisfied.

Also I find it very difficult to slick back my hair so it looks really smooth and sleek. There is no product in the world that will do that to my hair (other than a flat iron or relaxer) so I’m not even satisfied with my ponytails and buns.

If you've been coloring your hair for a while and you're not happy or exited with the results, it's time to examine what is happening.


Brunette hair has become dark and flat? One solution is to place fine highlights throughout the hair to bring back tones of red and gold that were darkened with repeat coloring. The shading allows the hair to sparkle and gives it a more natural feeling.

Highlights have lost all contrast and shading? One solution is to add various shades of lowlights throughout the head, with one shade darker than the natural. This technique allows the blond hair to shine through the deeper tones making the hair look healthy and beautiful.

Highlights disappear after a few shampoos? Fine highlights executed with hair color instead of a lightener will look great when you leave the salon, but will oxidize and disappear or become flat and mousy after a few shampoos. One solution is to place a few thicker highlights throughout the hair with a mild lightener, and if necessary add a few lowlights for contrast and depth.

Red hair has lost its sparkle? One solution is to reformulate your existing formula to include a more vibrant tone of red. If the red is dark or brownish, we need to remove some of the build-up with a mild lightener and then proceed to touch-up roots with lighter, brighter formula.
