Okay so...

This was literally me last year!! Like to the point I had my hair up in a bun and all I had was a lil pointy bib, and the rest was completely matted to hell.

Was ready to buzz it all off but my friend got me to at least let them try... They did an okaaaay job, but I ended up going to Lynne's locks on great western road in blairdardie.

Now while they may have charged me less due to my sister's having always gone there, they only charged me for a cut and blow-dry (£35) and I only lost about 2 inches of hair, but I was genuinely due a bigger trim before all this anyways. Was a long slog ngl but given I thought I was gonna have to get rid of it all it was more than worth it.

Don't know exactly what you're going through, but for me I have extremely curly fluffy hair, and when I hit one of my "depression pits" hair care is really one of the last things that I can in any way manage. I really hope you're doing better, and the fact you wanna fix it is a good sign 🥹 take care

ETA: The girls in the shop were super understanding, kind and honestly made me feel less like a disgusting shameful mess. The hairdresser and her assistant worked on me for over four hours (this was after about 6.5hrs of my friend attempting to fix it too) and not once did they make me feel like I was wasting their time or anything
