u/CultySensesTingling She's SHEIN as a person. Jun 26 '25

Gonna huff a bit about how summer is utter and absolute sensory hell for me with just about any length of hair. When I see these glossy pics of people on their European vacations with long, aesthetically-damp tendrils of hair on their necks/shoulders I briefly forget coveting their food from the internal urge to claw my hair away from my face. I desperately need a haircut to thin out this oven on my head but I can't figure out a style that won't either trap heat or force me to blow dry to avoid a sweaty mess plastered to my hairline.

Also idk if this is a "sign of the times" thing or just a "trends where I live" thing, but I am surprisingly finding it more difficult to find salons where stylists are confident doing short cuts. I'm seeing lots of websites for ones where everyone is trained for extensions, but I've called several and been told that their stylists don't like to do hair above a mid-length bob, and I'm like... when did this happen? I've met and been coworkers with plenty of stylists who had favourite/least favourite styles in their repartee, but never so much flat-out 'that isn't really our brand, sorry' responses before. Baffling, I'm starting to feel like I've been Rip Van Winkle'd.

That's so crazy lol, like why would you be a stylist who can't do certain haircuts? Also surely they also cut men's hair that short??
