| Dh took 7 yo to get his haircut and - hard to even explain it - but it looks completely insane. Not like - a well done but radical look. Like a horribly executed weird cut that you might imagine he gave himself. am I allowed to be mad? I am so mad |
| It's just hair. It'll grow back. |
| Is this what the kid wanted? Is he happy? You need to unclench. This is just hair - not a tattoo. Hair grows back. The goal is for your son to like how he looks. |

What does the 7 yo think?
And while I would be mad inside, I’d do everything I could to ignore those feelings and laugh it off. What would you get out of being mad outwardly? Nothing good. It’s hair. It will grow back and be a good story. |
| Who are you mad at? The barber? |
Op - what happened was he basically did not cut the top (long and wavy and thick) but buzzed the sides. But however you are imagining that might look cool - it looks completely insane. It could be easily fixed but now 7 yo likes it. It’s not a style it’s like a sort of reverse mullet |

It’s just hair.
I took my kid to hair cuttery recently and it honestly seemed like the guy had never cut hair before. It’s really bad. I don’t care, it’ll grow back. |
Lol oh no is it this https://www.esquire.com/style/news/a51116/high-and-tight-fascism-neo-nazis-white-supremacists/ |
| Is it the broccoli haircut? https://metro.co.uk/2022/04/30/explaining-the-trending-broccoli-haircut-thats-everywhere-on-tiktok-16562821/amp/ |
Op - I wish it was that! It looks a bit like a worse version of number 20 from this https://hairstylecamp.com/men-curly-taper-fades/ |
Is your son about to be a ring bearer soon? If not, so what... |
Op - kind of but imagine someone has bangs but they cut them into just like a rectangle on his forehead. Like if you cut an a4 piece of paper in half vertically and then laid it on top of your head. |
| I took my 3 yo DD to hair cuttery once and the woman was a disaster. Ended up giving her a mushroom cap of frizz. It was not remotely cute. I remember my DH being mad at me over it and thinking that was incredibly unfair and stupid. It grew back and we laugh about it now. |
Mad at dh - not bc it’s too short - but bc it is a viral level of nuts and he let him leave the barber with it and he now likes it so we can do nothing |

The styles for middle school and high school are atrocious right now.
My kids had great haircuts for their hair type until about 2 years ago (now high school). Now they have that unstructured moppy mess going every which way and 1/2 the class has a version of a mullet. |
