UPDATE: I MADE AN APPT WITH A NEW SALON...HOPEFULLY SHE CAN GET MY HAIR DID RIGHT!
So...I normally only get my hair cut like once every 5/6 months. My hairstyle doesn't need to be maintained that much because their isn't much to it and my ginger locks are still virgin to chemicals so I don't have to get my "roots done" ever. Even though I hate my hair color, I've never had the urge to color it. For one, I don't know what color I would change it to...blonde maybe? I do have my "blonde moments" so it would probably match.
I've being living here for over 3 years...and it's been hard for me to find a hairstylist that I like. I started just going to those ones in the mall at first because it's easy to walk-in and get a trim, but then I wanted to get a more "regular" stylist. I picked out a place near my apartment, but that only worked like 2 times because it wasn't convenient for me to leave work early and I usually had to wait a week to get my hair done. So I found a salon which is like a block up the road from where I work about a year ago. The stylist I was assigned to that day was perfect. She was my age so we had a lot in common. I went to her atleast 3 times, until she moved to D.C. I was so sad. So for the past couple of times I've been to another lady who is super sweet, but she never seems to get my hair the way I want it. The second time I went to her I took this picture....

I love Sara Evans' hair in this picture, but she and I both thought I may not be ready for those short layers just yet. Well, then the next time I went for a trim I decided to take a picture of what my hair looked like when my previously relocated stylist cut my hair. It still didn't come out the way I wanted, but I let it be...she just didn't get it.
So now I'm not sure if I should pick a new stylist or not. On the one hand, I'm "comfortable" with my current stylist and I know she can schedule me the same day, but should I go to someone different and possibly have them cut my hair the way I want it?
I NEED to get my hair cut this week...it's gotten so long and gross and it always ends up in a (knotted) pony tail by the end of the day...and it's so thick and coarse it definitely needs to be thinned out.

Woe is me...and my hair.
loves,

hey girl...this might be a tiny bit out of the way for you...but my friend kayla works at Ivy Salon in downtown gville(an aveda salon) and she is awesome...i'm like you, i only go a few times a year. but she's a doll and it's always a nice relaxing experience. if you want, you can give her a call 864-370-1489 i don't do color either, just a cut. and i think your hair is a beautiful auburn, don't color it :) p.s. her name is kayla rock...i think there are two kayla's there.
Thanks, Heather! I have an appointment with Wilson's on Washington today after work (it's like right up from my office). If she doesn't do a good job or she charges too much then I will DEFINITELY call your friend Kayla next time! The one I went to on Woodruff Rd was an Aveda salon...I loved getting head massages during the shampoo! :)
