Today, I had to get my hair chopped off for a role that I'm playing in a show. I was staring at the floor while the woman cut my hair, and I suddenly heard her start crying. Her tears were immediately followed by "It's okay! I have a friend in New York who can fix it. We won't charge you." FML

Hmmm every play I've been in we've used these things called wigs. Come in pretty handy.

Wow, that must have been pretty bad for her to start crying... sorry!

I personally feel bad for that lady.

There's this thing called money... some schools and theatre companies don't have enough to afford wigs.

Wigs are too expensive (they are indeed) compared to haircuts. Poor you.

Bad haircuts are a gift from satan. I feel for you. And I agree with #24 with the wig thing. My theater group can't afford wigs for everyone, either.

Oh man, that suuuucks! I had some horrible hair-cutting incidents about 4-ish years ago. I went to a really expensive top-of-the-line salon to get it evened out (they did a really good job, but it was really expensive) and I've let it grow out. I trim it myself now. If you can't trust a professional to cut your hair, then who can you trust to do it? Hopefully for you it was workable and they could do something with it. Hopefully she didn't accidentally shave a bald spot into the back of your head because that would really suck!

What happened?! You can't leave us on a cliffhanger.

Yea. So over the summer I got my haircut at a reputable chain of sorts. Aveda is really expensive. Well. The haircut wasn't that great but it was cut and I was able to continue my job search not looking like a homeless lady. SO it comes time for me to start finding someone for my girlfriends wedding and I decide to try this other place my cousin has gone to. So I set up my appointment for the wedding and then set up a haircut with the same stylist a few weeks before. So she's great, cutting my hair and all of a sudden goes "do you know there's a huge chunk missing down here?" I didn't because it was in the back. I at that point laughed it off and said well that explains so much! I've been going to her ever since. In regards to a show - I completely understand from doing musicals in particular you can't dance, sing and make sure your wig is still on straight at the same time. Depending upon the style just sucking it up and getting your haircut is the best option.
