So I had wavy hair 4 years ago my hair is not as wavy as it is now, I forgot what kind of bangs I got that time but it looked fine but now I'm scared that my front bangs might be shorter than it might be. Okay, I'll explain. Since my hair is wavier than it used to be, when my hair stylist pulls my hair to make a cut to the length I want my bangs to be maybe it will 'curl' back up then makes it seem that I have short bangs. I really don't know how to explain but anyways, should i just cut it myself or go to a hair stylist. Most of them don't really get what I am telling them..

I got tired of stylists going 'snip happy' and cutting away more than I wanted each time I went so I resorted to cutting my own bangs, letting hair grow out and just trimming the tips. Some cut hair while it is wet and also pull it. Wet seems to relax the wave or curl and then springs back later to be shorter. I suppose you can always call a salon and speak to someone of your concern and ask if anyone there would be willing to do their best to cut your bangs while the hair is dry without stretching out the curl because you dont want really short bangs after your hair bounces back to its normal wave and curl. If they promise this and mess up still, I'd ask for my money back.
If you don't want to take the chance, then either a friend or family member who has cut the familys hair really well and successfully for years might be someone to ask for help or do it yourself. Hair is hard to cut in a straight even line so even if someone can cut paper or cloth well, they may not be able to handle hair.
As a general rule, moms who have no professional hair cutting training, like myself, will tend to be conservative in cutting hair taking only short snips at the time knowing they don't have the training, so if something ends up not totally straight, we don't have to take off much more to correct it. My grown adult daughters still come to me for their haircuts to save a buck and because they know I'll do it the way they want it.
Hope it works out for you. If you ever find a professional who does it exactly as you like, book future appointments only with her. I did find someone like that but the husband said we couldn't afford the cost of haircuts anymore and I had to go back to doing my own.
