I've been cutting my own hair for nearly 20 years at this point. I've seen everything from unintentional chunks ripped out to weirdly blunt shelf-like layers to one side somehow ending up about four inches longer than other to the worst offender of all...that time I thought I might suit a fringe.

But you know what, I look back on photos from those times and laugh at the memories. It's hair, it grows back, and not many women ever even find out whether we can pull off a buzzcut so congrats to your wife because the Ripley look is cool af.
