I'm still trying to get my nerve up to go get my haircut. How ridiculous is that?

I hate bringing pictures into the salon, Im afraid they think that I'm thinking "I want to look like her." And I feel like they're just rolling their eyes behind the chair. And I try really hard to bring a picture of hair that's actually possible with my hair. Know what I mean? I've seen a lot of people go into salons with pictures and I hear the stylist say "well, that style is actually longer than your hair is now", or "your hair is too straight or too curly or too something or other..." Laura dear, do stylists hate it when you bring a picture? Do tell...
