First Ever DIY Haircut!!

Not too long ago, I shared on Instagram about how I was considering trying to trim my own hair in an attempt to avoid unnecessary expenditure. I am a dutiful little housewife, indeed. I will go ahead and divulge the spoilers up front: it did not go well. But I did take lots of photos, and I will post them all below, while I wait for my salon to ANSWER THE PHONE I AM DESPERATE PLEASE JUST PICK UP!!

The technique I opted for is commonly known as the “unicorn method”. It is a favorite among YouTubers right now, and many of my own Instagram subscribers recommended it, so it was BOUND to go wonderfully. I used the regular scissors from this kit.

……

Carefully, now!!

Here comes the chop!!

What could go wrong?… It’s only hair, right???????

WE’VE REACHED THE POINT OF NO RETURN!

“Point-cutting” This allegedly makes it look better.

Regrets…. I’m having lots of them.

These aren’t layers, they’re…………………. shelves?

In my defense, I did once pay a lot of money to get this same messed-up cut. The failure from that stylist is one of the reasons I fear salon visits and wanted to DIY in the first place. And…… AM I SEEING GREYS????

Looks ok like this… guess I’m sticking with “half up” styles until this is fixed.

Verdict: WACK. zero stars.

Now I’m I’m just snapping photos to feed my ego. Time to go.

Stay tuned to find out if a professional stylist can save me, or if I will be left to wallow in my own folly…
