Weheartit. This is the reason I want black hair.After a few days of pondering dying my hair black/brown, I've decided to do it and pray it doesn't look terrible. I enjoy dying my own hair because it's cheaper and makes me a little proud of myself. Kinda like I'm in control of my own hair, ya know what I mean?
But one thing I've been wanting to try harder at is... cutting my own bangs. I've done it a few times, just little trims, but I'm pretty afraid to ruin my hair and have to go to my hair lady and admit I cut them.... She probably already thinks I'm cheating on her because the blond she put in my hair is "magically" brown. Anyway, I was wondering if there are any secret tips to cutting your own bangs? I doubt it but I'd like to hear from you guys about it!
Do I have any readers who cut their own hair? Or are they afraid like I am? hehe

Hi... coming out of lurking to say hello :)
ReplyDeleteI actually cut my hair last week - I was bit iffy about it, but after looking at some videos on youtube I psyched myself up and did it. My theory was 'hey, I'm an artist, if I mess up I can pull off slightly crazy hair, right?' I cut my fringe (bangs), and some shorter layers all over and it looks pretty good, so I'm pleased with the money I saved myself. I've pretty much always cut my fringe myself - I think the trick is not to do it wet, because when it dries and you can find the cut horrifyingly short! Other than that, it's easy enough really. Good luck!
The hair is those pictures is great, really striking. Let us know how the dying goes :)
I cut my own hair, but for me that just means trimming the ends :))
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet blog! :))
Come visit mine hon, I think (hope :)) you'll really like it! I can't wait to hear from you!
Have a nice day!

I cut my own hair! Only the front though... Not brave enough to try the back! haha =)
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone for your input! I think I'm going to trimming my own bangs in between hair cuts :) I hope I don't ruin it haha!

I only cut the front thats it...i guess I dont trust myself with the rest of my hair lol. BTW I love your LoveBots! AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteI've cut my fringe myself a few times (with moderate success) so I'm sure you'll be fine. Just go slow and maybe have someone you trust to be honest supervise you? Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI think you would look fantastic with black hair!
ReplyDeleteI've made the mistake of cutting my hair and absolutely destroying it. I walked around with a mullet like dew for a few months. It took a few...years to improve the damage I'd done. Although for dying it darker, that wouldn't be such a bad idea. Fall is coming closer and closer and tinting your hair a shade darker would definitely go along with the season.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear of your hair accident, but why didn't you just go get it fixed in the salon?
ReplyDeleteI'll probably never cut all my hair myself but I'm definitely cutting my own bangs. <3
