Here's what happened. As some of you know, I have a lot of naturally short hair around my temples and hairline. On top, there are some long strands mixed in which were always stringy and hanging around my face. Last night, I decided to "tidy it up". Now I have a short fringe which DOESN'T mix in with the rest of my hair like I thought it would. That's over two years of growth off the fringe!! AAARRGGHH!!!
This must be the dumbest hair mistake ever made:) The only good thing is that its not too noticeable due to my curly hair.
Thought I'd share, but it's not easy admitting to one's stupidity...
Awww! I hope you won't do that again Huey. But it's ok if it's not noticable. If you left it, it would have grown out with the rest of your hair. Or didn't you want it to be the same length? I can understand if it gets to that stage that you would want to cut it.
Just leave it now to grow, don't cut it! Maybe you should get one of Hairmonster's T-Shirts and hang it up your wall. So the next time your feel the urge to snip-snip, you might think twice before doing it! :o)
Don't worry now, it will grow back!

Well, at least that's something!
Sorry this happened, but the only thing you can do now is move forward.
Don't be hard on yourself. I've heard of some people getting
drunk and cutting off all their hair.
So thank God you did not go THAT far!
You probably feel very bad right now, but with time
your mood will brighten and your hair will continue to grow.
And while your hair is growing out, try your best to
blend it in with your curly hair.
The good vibes of this Board are coming at you.
Good Luck!
It' really not all that dumb. Okay, you regret it, but now you know something about how your hair works. And the truth is, all of our hair works different from each other. Comparisons are relative.
It will grow out, and I bet even in a week what seems so awful to you know will have begun to morph back into some shape around your head that is decent.
Breathe. Be patient. Laugh a little.

...I really appreciate it. I've taken to gelling my hair back for now so I'll see how I go.
