- Get terrible haircut. Smile weakly as the overly enthusiastic hairdresser holds up a mirror to show you the back of your mangled mass of hair.
- Wash. Gel. Straighten. Cry. Wear A Beanie. Refuse to Leave the House. Pull sadly at whats left of your hair. Depression.
- Rage. Yell and scream. Declare a jihad against the hairdresser (or at least, a decent boycott).
- Acceptance. It can't look that bad. Really.
- Time to grow it out. Long hair requires less trips to the hairdresser = time for the emotional wounds to heal :p
- Hair is now too long. Go back to hairdresser. Declare that you "have no idea what to do with it".
Repeat.
Its not actually all that bad.
