I'm never sure whether to be pleased or not when actual professional hairdressers have trouble doing my hair. On one hand, it gives me a sense of smug (if bleak) satisfaction to have my place on the Top Ten List of Most Unmanageable Hair Of All Time re-confirmed, since my personal excuse for being such a fug hobo all the time is that my hair's ridiculously naturally ugly and I am too lazy and not vain enough to put in the time required to make it look decently averagely respectable to the American public. (Mary Sue, I am not.) Having a professional hair person confirm that my hair is made of fail makes me feel better, like it's not all my fault that I'm such a hag.

Then again, if they can't even make my hair look nice, what hope do I have? What chance in hell do I have of ever looking pretty? What am I paying them for??

Ha ha, why do I care.

And having the weird Polish/Czech hair texture is why I keep my hair pretty short now. The shaggy looks intentional then!

You may want to ask them if they'll put in a shit ton of layers sometime. A lot of the time my issue with hairdressers is they're afraid to cut off too much, because girls freak out if it looks too boyish. Not saying you need to go like, Becky or my length, but you need to tell them you are not afraid.

And I literally just let my hair air dry and don't put any shit in it 99% of the time. I was the kid growing up whose hair bushed out at the bottom and was flat on top. My high school pictures are especially ghastly due to this.

Also, you may need to eat more good fats (like olive oil, fish and stuff). This keeps hair from failing.

Also, how often do you shampoo?

1) I have a good amount of layering already; the thing is, my hair's very fine, so when it's long and too layered it looks scraggly and awful. And right now it's long so that I can put it up for this damned wedding. XD

2) I shampoo it a couple times a week, not daily. For a while I was shampooing daily but this is kind of a trial period.

My hair is ridiculous with occasional moments where it does something nice. Whatever it is that makes it look nice one day out of a hundred can never be replicated.

I say we shave it all off.

You might be hobo fug, but you're always super hot to me. xD

I have actually never seen you with your natural hair! So I have no idea what it looks like.
