Another Canadian Mom!

post #1 of 16
Thread Starter 
Hi all,

I see I'm not the only Canadian mom to introduce herself here of late.

Hope to meet some great women here on the boards.

Starting with a question for you all:

Kind of like Jillian's 'Hot Dog test' on the Bachelor, what kind of hair disaster persona are you?

When you get your hair cut by a maniac who leaves you looking like a victim of a tragic lawn mower accident or a member of a hair-hating cult, do you:
  1. Wear a scarf on your head and insist it's the latest 'look' in Hollywood?
  2. Take it as a good reason to buy some fantastic hair accessories as a mode of distraction from the wreckage?
  3. Head to your girlfriends with some sharp scissors and a box of 'Oh My God! Where did that woman go to hairdressing school?' in a box?
  4. Boldly return to the salon where you had it done making sure to look as ridiculous as possible and demand a 'do over'?
  5. Spend many hours and a multitude of dollars at the priciest salon in town in the hopes that high prices and snooty staff means they can save your mane?

And, no, I'm not a hairstylist. This stems from a great, gut busting convo I had with a group of moms I know in real life. We are all so different and our own stuff makes so much sense to us. It's just supposed to be fun!

Enjoy and nice to meet you all.

Thanks for the welcome! I wonder if people aren't greeting me quickly because I'm grilling them about hairdressers? :

I was the unfortunate victim a few months back. I went back to the salon and got my 152 dollars back for the hack job of a cut and color the guy did.

Then I went to a very highly recommended salon near my work and had a do-over by a fabulous stylist who has since become "My guy".

Welcome

Happy Baby Growing in AB! And thanks for the welcome.

I'm with you on that one... usually. Once in my life I went into a magic cuts in desperation. I promptly got my hair massacred by a woman who said to me: "Well, I'm the one who went to school for this!" when I asked her about the jagged part between my bangs and the rest of my hair.

I took the scissors to it when I got home thinking that her license must have come from a cereal box!!

Thanks for the welcome!
