Bad Hair Can Make Any Outfit Bad

I have been seeing my (now ex I think?) hairdresser for a year and a half. Ladies out there all know that your relationship with your hairdresser is unique. They always know if you've cheated on them with another hairdresser or if you have screwed your hair over with hot irons and what not. You know there life and they know yours. So to be betrayed by your hairdresser is sickening. I have always loved short hair on myself since my hair was burnt off due to a freak candle accident. (Story for another day) and currently have a cute pixie cut that has grown out a bit to where it could just be considered short. I think I'll have to post a picture one of these days of myself. Anywho about a week and a half before Christmas 2007 I went to get my hair beautified and fresh. I told Nicole* (Protecting her name) that I wanted dark brown with pretty red/auburn highlights in it. Then I showed her a picture of the pixie cut I wanted. The cut turned out great, the color not so. I ended up walking out of there with black hair and fire engine red streaks through my hair. Oh and a $75 dollar bill I wanted to cry. She said that she just pictured me as more of a bad ass biker chic. Let me remind you that I have gone to her a year and a half before this incident and not once have I asked for bad ass. I always go for a classy stylish look. It gets worse... she didn't use a developer on the red so it washed out and now I have black hair with blonde/white streaks where the red use to be. Talk about Cruella DeVil. Now that my hair has recovered from the tragedy, I'm ready for a fresh start in the new year and am wondering if I should give Nicole another chance or find someone new? Leave comments and let me know...
