Don’t Do It - Part II

Part II - The Wrong Cut For The Right Gals

If you’re actually even contemplating getting the Katie Cut to look hip, or just to give yourself a change from the everyday chore of having beautiful long flowing locks of healthy hair, let me ask you this… 

Do you want to look like you have a wig made out of a mix between gorilla and long haired cat cut on your head for a few months?

Seriously?  It’s a yes or no question. 

Cause if you do want to look like an idiot with a wig made of gorilla and long cat hair glued together with horse semen (I assume that this is what glue they would use on such an awful wig) then go for it.  Print out this photo of the beautiful Mrs. Katie Holmes. 

 

Then go bring it to your hairdresser who is cutting hair “to keep busy now that the kids are all grown up and out of the house”.  Do it.  I’m sure that you’ll be able to eat a vat of mayonnaise while watching Dr. Phil on Tivo at 11 O’clock at night feeling like you’re the Queen of the Castle.   

What’s that?  You don’t want to look like you have an awful hideous wig on your head, even for just a day?  No, right???  Good.  Glad to hear it. 

See, the average hairstylist will want to think that they are just as good or even more than adequate as those hairstylists who have long histories in high priced salons.  While in reality there is a reason why some hairstylists can charge upwards of four figures for a haircut, as apposed to the $65 expensive cut at your local “Nancy” or “Frannie” will do ya for.

The simple reason being that the ones who have been able to charge four figures per hair cut for a seriously long time are actually very well skilled in the art of cutting hair.  They don’t just cut hair like it’s a production line.  Nope, the look at it, feel it, take measurements, use compasses, put condoms on it, and come up with hairstyles that are suitable to an individual face.  It’s as if these hairstylists have a PHD in hair.

So don’t just run off and get this new “Katie Cut” for your head of hair, it will be the wrong cut for the right gal. 

Do yourself, and all who have to see you even once after that life-changing cutting short your hair, and spend a little extra money to go to a salon that will take into account how your hair falls on your head, how your facial structure can be enhanced by a hairstyle, and how you will actually look better with a hairstyle designed to suit you as an individual. 

You’ll thank yourself for this, as will everyone around you who will not have to give you empty compliments just so they don’t make you feel bad for your having received an awful haircut.  Yes, that’s right, they’ll actually be happy for you, and give you compliments that will truly help you rise in the morning all the better. 

Remember, do not just run out and get the “Katie Cut”.
