argh!!!!

so i go to jc penny for the hairstyle #5.  she butchered it soo bad!  it was poofy all on one side.  one side longer than the other.  she pushed on me that i needed to have it washed and cut and not just cut so it was 12 bucks more for that because it's the "only real way to see what it would look like" after i told her no.  she left me with 3 duck tails!  one in the back, two on the sides.  ridiculous!  i must have told her that's not how i wanted it 4 times.  waste of damn money.  on my way home i was cutting bits and pieces with my sewing scissors i keep in my bag.  i came home, washed it all out and it looked horrid!  bitched about it.  said i'm done with people cutting my hair.  only had people cut my hair a handful of times and this is why.  they SUCK.  after a while i gave up.  i was about to shave my head when i just got up and went to a different location of great clips since the one by me is terrible.  the first girl was not confident she could do anything with it.  she kept asking the other girl.  told her i appreciate the honesty.  i wish other people that couldn't do a certain style would just come out and say it too.  they both told me to call jc penny and get my money back.  she but it all wrong.  she never matched the points.  nothing.  they did what they could to fix it, but it was soo butchered i had to go even shorter.  so, i went with something that now looks like #3.  i wanted this cut, but it's soo damn short on the top that i have to wait for it to grow in now.

since my hair is soo thick everything is MUCH bigger.  the sides are soo poofy it's ridiculous.  i think i am just gonna hold the top part of my hair up from now on and shave the underneath.  close on the back, #5-7 or something closer up by the ears.  then just let it drop.  sucks i have to wait for my hair to grow in now.  it was much longer than this and the first girl messed it up beyond repair.  2nd girl did what she could.  told me to come back when it grows a bit more on the top and she will even out the sides for me again free.  i have the red highlight kit...  wondering if it will look okay on brown hair or if i should go blonde or black.
