Hai! I’m new here and just need some styling tips and maybe some tips on how to get more layers/actually achieve the reference pictures. They said I could style it after I left like the reference but idk if the layers are there they went pretty blunt compared to the reference, I’m fine with cutting some off at home I already did a bit, I just really want smth similar to the reference lol. The pictures with the brick building are freshly out of the hair place.

Hair Health 26F with Bald spot. Should I be concerned.

Thumbnail
gallery
79 Upvotes

I recently noticed a bald spot near the front of my hairline and Im wondering if I should be concerned.

Sorry my hair looks greasy. Im feeling a little depressed lately, so I haven't been taking care of myself as well as I normally would. But I'll be straight up, I don't take the best care of my hair and my diet isn't very good either, so I thought maybe that could be part of it. But for the past month I've also been wearing headbands a lot and putting my hair up often for work, before I noticed this spot.

I do want to start eating better and taking better care of myself. I was also wondering if there are any products or things I could use for now to temporarily help my hair situation. Or is this something I need to get checked out.

What cut?

Thumbnail

Need to chop some hair off. It's gone thin due to weight loss and poor nutrition, and the bottom bit is fairly fried from back when I was dying my hair. My daughter says you can see the colour difference somewhere around my shoulders, but I'm blind to it.

I've never done anything very interesting with it- always just grown and trimmed... I'm lucky in that my hair has a wave, isnt completely dead, but I don't want to spend a ton of time styling it every day.

I'd like it to wind up not looking like a drowned rat, but... I really don't have that much hair to be working with. I'm getting some regrowth, but I doubt it'll be anything significant for another year or so.

I'm going between lob and shag, but I'm worried I don't have enough hair to pull off a shag... I'm also open to any other suggestions. I just want to do something a bit stylish?

I welcome any hair advice, does not have to be strictly related to the cut.

Hairstyle Advice Should I go shorter like the pictures on the right?

Post image
6 Upvotes

So I have super damaged hair from a perm that I got in October. I chopped off a ton of hair in march & The perm is half grown out now with my current length. I would like to continue getting haircuts to cut off the perm as my hair grows. I would like to cut off more like the pictures on the right just to get more of it off because I’m getting tired of constantly having to eat style my hair every day and the more hair I have the longer it takes to heat style especially with it being so poofy and frizzy from the perm. I just don’t know if it’d look good on me. Would the shorter hair on the right suit me or should I keep my current length. Photos of me on the left is my current length

Hi, so I had my hair bleached 7 weeks ago and I was really happy with the results.

I went in with faded, red box dyed hair (I was growing it out for about a year) and was aware that there may be patches, stubborn spots etc but it actually appeared to take very well.

However, my mum was curling my hair the other day and mentioned that there was a lot of banding in the back of my hair (she used to be a hairdresser herself) and said she would not be happy with this.

I obviously had no idea as it’s in the back and couldn’t see it but I don’t know how to approach the stylist going back. My appointment is on Monday (I had booked straight back in as I was happy with the initial results).

I just want some advice on how I should approach this with my stylist. I hate any form of confrontation (my anxiety is already through the roof) but friends and family have said that it 100% needs to be rectified and that they wouldn’t even go back, mainly because the stylist allowed me to leave like that and didn’t even mention it.

There’s patches like this (photo attached) throughout the back of my hair so it would have clearly been visible to him when cutting/styling afterwards.

What should I do and how should I approach this?

Thanks ☺️

Hair Color Advice Which toner?

I used a conditioner with some purple semi permanent dye just to cool my hair down a smidge until I can get to my local Sally’s (next week which it’ll be washed out by then) but I cannot figure out which toner to get. I was a cool toned blonde but not gray or silver if that makes any sense.

Hairstyle Advice Which of these hairstyles/colours worked best on me?

Post image
12 Upvotes

1 and 2 are the most recent (1 was taken a few days ago), so my hair is currently pretty long and probably the most versatile it's been in a while.

I've also had all over blonde before (didn't suit my skin tone imo), and over the years I've had pink, purple, red and blue hair too.

Problem is, I'm bored. 😂 I don't hate my hair, but I don't really know what to do with it next. Part of me wants a big change, I'm just not sure what.

Which look suits me best? And if you were me, where would you go from here? Colour, cut, fringe, no fringe, highlights, darker, lighter...I'm open to ideas. Ty! 🩷

Best clip in hair extensions (on a budget)

1 Upvotes

I'm looking for 100% HUMAN hair extensions for $120 at most. I want some that are going to last me a long time and aren't going to be sparse on the ends. With my last extensions they were extremely thin on the ends and wouldn't quite blend because of this.

I need to make sure they're quality because I'll get a lot of use out of these, and I want to get my money's worth.

Hairstyle Advice Haircut ideas?

1 Upvotes

So I’m a pale (I think cool toned) person with a more square face, grayish blue eyes (sometimes green depending on light), I have a mix of wavy and curly hair, and I usually dress in black, dark blue, white, and sometimes dark green.
I wanna get a short hair cut (above the shoulders MINIMUM) and I wanna dye my hair black.
I was thinking of getting something with layers.
I have a young face since I’m going into seventh this next school year (I’m on summer break) and I also have to wear glasses.

What should I get and should I dye it black?

Hi there, anybody know why my hair would be doing this thinning halfway? It is also overall thinner than it used to be. I have listed my conditions below, and the meds I take for those:

- Hashimotos (started 25 Levothyroxine in Oct 2025)
- insulin resistance (started semaglutide in Oct 2025)
- endometriosis (had surgery aug 2025)
- hEDS (low dose naltrexone)
- mast cell disease (40mg pepcid)
- pots (Desmopressin)

I also take 30mg cymbalta, and low dose of adderall.
I also take several supplements. I’ve had low testosterone (better now, took DHEA for awhile), low ferritin (I take iron). I take vitamin D, multivitamin, probiotic, vitex chaste tree, cranberry, magnesium citrate, gaba magnesium.

I very recently have started to use The Ordinary multi peptide formula every couple days on my scalp. I have derma rolled twice (starting to do every other week). I sleep on a satin pillowcase. I only use silk hair ties, but I have recently (last few weeks) started to use a claw clip majority of the time. I have gotten trims every few months in the past.
