    My step dd (had) long hair until a couple of months ago and decided she wanted a fringe so cut it herself, unfortunatly she cut it at the root and had a huge bald chunk at the front of her head :eek:
    We fell about laughing as at 11 she should have known better :rotfl:

    It seems like you people have FAR too much time on your hands if you think that a botched haircut is so important. Wow, it's actually quite shocking.
    may i suggest, then, that you choose not to read any more of this 'pointless' thread? ;)

    ruthyjo - your friend could be just really embarassed and not sure how to approach you about it! In her position, I'd feel awful - especially since it sounds like you have more than enough to worry about at the moment. I do hope the budding beauty therapist learns not to do it again (and that you did take some photos for when your daughter is older - you may not like how it looked, but that's something to be saved for her 18th birthday, or when she brings home her first boyfriend.... or am i just mean?!?!)

    My mother still has the photo of me with a massive chunk of my pageboy (it was the seventies!) fringe chopped to the root and no eyebrows after my sister decided to give me a makeover when I was about 5 or 6. The school photo that year was kept as a reminder - I also have a lovely Ribena smile in it and a front tooth missing!

    Don't worry about your daughter - she'll be fine - I was (still have crap hair though!)

    Last year DD aged nearly 3, got up one Sunday morning and decided to chop off nearly all the hair on one side of her head. Yes, I was more gutted about it than she was but what was done was done. I knew it would grow. And it has, though it's taken a whole year and several haircuts in an attempt to sort of make it look normal....ish.

    Anyway, a couple of weeks ago (bearing in mind it's taken a year for it to get back to normal) .....she's done it again... TWICE!!!!!!! (With her rounded end play scissors I might add).

    I dread to think what next year will bring seeing as this appears to be an annual event!! Don't ya just love the little darlings?!!
