I'm getting my hair cut tomorrow and I'm freaking out

[graywarrior]

It's all about confrontation and splainin to the nice lady that I do not want to look like a retired Floridian, or like I was cookie cut out of a makeover tv show.

I have to add that the pressure is being put on me to cut my hair because I have to start interviewing for work. Wa-a-a-a--a, why can't I just stay the way I am? Everybody wants to change everybody else.

1. Take a picture of the cut you want.

And remember, hair always grows back.

2. That's what I do.

Take a picture, explain as much as you can, try not to cry when you style it yourself the next morning.

4. I am getting my hair cut tomorrow as well..........................

I have hair long enough to reach the middle of my back and I'm going to donate it to "Locks of Love", in which they'll take my hair and make a wig for a cancer patient. I'm no longer freaked out about cutting my hair as I have grown it out several times. Its only hair, it'll grow back!

I agree with other posters who say bring a photo. That'll alleviate any doubt about what you want.

As far as cutting your hair to meet your interview expectations, I agree its bullshit, and I have dealt with it many times (long hair on guys is generally not attractive to employers). However, existing in this society is a game, and you need to play as close to the rules to get you what you want while not compromising your core principles. In other words, pick your fight!

5. Yeah, at least I don't say what the fuck at interviews anymore
