Hi again bubbliebekah,
I would definitely go to the girl who listened and did you hair the way you liked it last time!!!
This poor gal who just cut it sounds like she was lacking in confidence or someone just blew her up about cutting their hair too short and she was scared of that happening again. And feel free to vent, it's no problem. This is your hair and you sound like you are confident in knowing what you want.
And yes, you are correct in the volume along the sides to widen and take away from the height of the face or forehead. As for tapering causing the "bubble effect". LOL That is the terminology used for what happens to hair that has had excessive heat (blow drying or mainly metal curling irons) The bubbles form when the moisture is cooked or boiled and the bubbles form where breakage occurs and that can look like a tapered (usually a bad one cause of the uneven awful breakage) style.
Bless your heart. I do hope that other girl who cut your hair can give you what you want. As for the uneven sides. That can be the style these days. However, from what you told me about this last stylist, I think she just lacked confidence, and possibly skill. You do have enough hair left to get it the way you like it. Just praying you get the right cut this time.
Best of luck!!!! And yes, please let me know! Thanks!
