Need Some Advice! Please help!

[Anita Fixx]

Hey! So I really need help with my hair because it's very thick and wavy...basically it drives me crazy! It's all grown out and gross now. It's a few different colours too, blonde, red and dark brown roots. I really, really want a pin up retro style hair but have NO idea how to pull it off. And as far as I know there are NO hair stylists round here that specialize in that sorta thing. So what do you suggest for colour and cut? I'm open to new ideas and advice here.
Thank you!

Thanks for the tip! I had NO idea about that place maybe I'll try it out. I don't like going to Queen and Bathurst but I'm not gonna bore you with the reasons for that. Anyway gracias to you both! : )

The lady who does my hair is amazing.. She's a good friend of mine and I have hair EXACTLY like yours.. every stylist I have been to has been thrown off by how much hair I have, seriously.. to be exact the phrase is "Oh my god, you have so much hair!" and it's frizzy and annoying, and now that I have bangs (for the first time since kindergarden) I have to take care of it and straighten them after I shower and such.... But yes, her name is Sherry and she works at a salon called Harlots at Queen and Bathurst (west on Queen to just past Tecumseth on the north side of Queen)

Ask some of your local T-dot PL-gals with good hair who they see.

But again...my chair is open here in Ottawa!

Eeeeek, imagine the hairstyles and tattoos we'd see if everyone got what they wanted just to fit a look vs. what a pro says is best!

But thanks for the advice. I will NEVER dye my hair brown. I HATE that colour, it's my natural hair colour and I find it BORING. Plus I wear glasses so I'll look like a librarian. NOT the look I'm going for. I'd love to have a Marilyn Monroe- Jayne Mansfield look if possible. But I think I should stop bleaching my hair blonde for a bit...maybe I'll go red.
You say you never cut hair just to look retro but isn't that what most of your clients want? Just wondering...
Oh and you don't have to see my hair in person to know it's MASSIVE look at my pics. It takes people like 2 hours to cut it when I go get it cut.

I thought the "customer is always right". I mean isn't freedom of choice what this consumer capitalist society is based on? I find it to be one of it's only redeeming qualities..what with the economic meltdown and all. Hope you can understand that...
