A bad hair cut is frightening. “I was excited when I got a new haircut, in my mind the cut was very much like Priyanka Chopra’s chic bob. But when I saw the mirror, it was a nightmare! My hair-cut was pathetic and it made me look fat and funny”, reminisces Swati Bhargav.
It’s very upsetting to see a hair cut go bad! Every woman goes through this stage once in her life! We at Aaw understand how heart breaking a bad cut is.
So before you start pulling out your hair or killing the hairstylist, here are few simple ways to spice up a bad hair cut.
Talk to your hairstylist: Politely tell your hairdresser that you are not satisfied with the cut and this is not what you wanted. Ask him to fix it out or suggest some hair styles to make it look better. Often a simple hair band can hide the flaws.
Experiment: Now that you have already experimented with your hair style go an extra mile and chop it into something sexy. Look for edgy but cute (and maintainable!) hairstyles in magazines or just Google them.
Accessories: Accessories surely enhances the overall look. Think positive and shop for chick and trendy scarfs, hats, bows, and caps to cover your hair. Play with your hair and put on some bright hair band, clips, and rubber bands to divert the attention.
Don’t Panic: Be patient and take a deep breath. Look into the mirror again, may be it doesn’t look that bad. Let the style grow on you by giving it two days. If you still feel the same then take any major decisions. Ask your friends and family about it because chances are you might hate it, but others like it on you!
Be positive: Keep a positive attitude and don’t be depressed. Carry the bad haircut in style with great élan. Never crib and be confident of the haircut and make others believe that it’s the trend of the season.
Go for regular trims: Trims will help to get rid of the dead hair and split ends. Split ends restrict hair growth so it’s very important to get remove dead ends for hair growth and banishing that weird cut.
Invest in a wig: Wigs are a great idea if the cut has gone horribly wrong. Buy a decent one. Do not go for the unrealistic long hair, vague colours. The idea is to gel with the crowd not stand apart!
Tips: Always seek a professional’s help and never try to cut your hair.
• Show the picture of the hairstyle you want to the hairdresser before he picks up the scissors.
• Be very clear about your demands. Do not give into the dressers whims even if he says something is in style.
• Choose maintainable and pretty styles. Don’t go for drastic cuts. The aim is to look chic not weird!
