Bumping this thread because I need tips. I used to have beautiful flow, no joke. I lost a bet and had to shave all of my hair off (when I had shorter hair) and I was completely bald. I let it grow after that and my flow ended up perfect. Took about 7-8 months of growing with no trimming, no gel, no nothing. It was beautiful and I deeply miss it. Summer rolled along and I decided to get just a trim. Well that trim turned into much more than just a trim, barber completely ****ed it up, and i just told him to cut it all off and I ended up with kind of a ****boy haircut, fade on the sides, hair swept to one side, looked completely ******** but it was better than whatever the barber did with his trim. I've been growing it out since then and my hair is long again and everything, but it's sadly not the same. The sides are completely even like legit a straight like which makes it look a bit dumb, the back and front are considerably longer than the sides. I'm in a crisis right now and I need help, should I not go to a regular barber? Should I cut the back and front to match the sides? I'm thinking about cutting it all off and just going back to short hair but at the same time, I really don't want to. Someone help
