   I used to be terrified of hairdressers after a very bad experience in my teens (i wore a hat for a year)and it took a very good hairdresser to restore my faith. Now, although i still get a pang before i go, i just give them pretty much free reign, though i always say keep it at least shoulder length (then i can tie up if it does go wrong, also dont have the neck for short styles) and i always ask for a senior stylist preferably at reputable salon. Having a relaxed attitude (even if you’re not feeling it) seems to give them more confidence too; if you’re too nervous this often makes them more nervous and therefore more likely to fuck up.

   I decided to be a stylist when I had a series of bad cuts as a teen. I don’t have anyone that I don’t know that gives me free reign. It takes them a long time for that…but when they finaly do they are pleased.

   I co-create with the stylist (when i’m not being cheap and doing it myself - Cap. moon). Usually they’ll have taken things into consideration which i’d been unaware of. Libra sun, venus & uranus.

   I always walk in with an idea, and after much discussion, the stylist and I usually come to an agreement that always ADDS to my original idea!

   I’ve never had much luck with other people cutting my hair. They never seem to achieve what I want, and if I just let them do what they do, they make me look stupid or fifteen years out of style. I suppose I have a different sort of hair than most, finer or something. I think I’ve only been pleased with a haircut from another person once, and I think it had a lot to do with the fact that the lady wanted to “experiment” with my hair and use a different cutting method.

   About six years ago, I had a particularly bad haircut and firmly decided I could do a better job than they even though I’d never cut anyone’s hair. So I began cutting my own hair… and since then, I’ve actually gotten COMPLIMENTS on my hair! Nobody’s touched my hair but me since.

   Venus in taurus, quincunx ascendant/mars in libra & quincunx uranus in sagittarius. “not getting what I want” probably has a lot to do with my moon-venus opposition.

   I co-create, Venus in Aries, 8th house but almost in the 9th.

   First, I only go to hairdressers I trust, if I can help it. Changing hairdressers is a scary thing b/c my hair is DIFFICULT and I’ve had some very traumatic haircuts.

   When I get there, I either want them to trim up what I’ve already got, or I have a good idea of what I want to do next. Sometimes I have a picture to show them. My latest big change was done by a trusted hairdresser, so I told her the length and effect I was going for and the reasons why and let her loose. It turned out well!

   Venus in Libra, and I haven’t been to a salon in over ten years. This does not mean, however, that I’m any good at doing my own hair, and when I go in to get it all cut off this summer as I keep saying I mean to do, I’ll probably rely wholly on the stylist to make it look good.

   Venus in Aquarius (10th house).
   I tell the stylist roughly what I want and then they take over with suggestions. I usually end up wishing they hadn’t. More often than not, I think it looks better BEFORE I have it cut. I only go there because I think I “should”… I would be happy if I never had my hair cut at all.

   I have very specific ideas of what I want and don’t want. I used to experiment with short cuts when I was younger (Venus is in an out-of-sign conjunction with Uranus), but no more. My hair is long, slightly layered, and highlighted, and my stylist knows exactly what to do when I come in. Not surprisingly at all, my Venus is in Virgo and conjunct Pluto. Control freak much?

    Venus in Sag in the 1st trine Saturn in Leo . . . I pay very close attention to what’s being done and REALLY don’t like it when the hairdresser does something without consulting me first.

    sometimes I say “surprise me” & sometimes I specify.
