Hair crisis: Part III

Tomorrow I'm getting my hair cut for the third time in six weeks. My stylist and I are at an impasse regarding the concept of "short." Yes, it's gradually getting shortER but has not yet achieved a degree of shortness that will let me go outdoors on a windy day and not be blinded by my own hair swirling around my face.

I've been assured that I have achieved "cute" with the last two styles but unfortunately, "cute" seems to equal "visually impaired" when it comes to doing more than sitting in a chair. To date, Robin has taken off about 6 inches. I think 2 more inches might do it. Hopefully tomorrow's appointment will achieve the hair nirvana I'm looking for.

How my stylist is afraid I'll ask her to make my hair look

  3. I have the same problem with my hairdresser. He's been cutting my hair for decades and I haven't changed the style but it seems I walk out of there with the haircut *I* want probably every sixth or seventh haircut. Sigh.
    I do like the Princess Diana 'do. Take a photo along so you and she are looking at the same thing and see if she can make it work!
    Good luck and post pictures of your new 'do!
