Need hair advice

Well, my hair is definately not growing back the way I want since I last had it cut. It's been a month since my last cut but the lower back hair strands were cut shorter than the top and sides and it just makes it look a bit top heavy or too moppy on top or something like that. I have bascially thich and wavy hair and it just doesn't feel or look right. It also makes it seem too thin right in front where my hairline is.
I'm going to a different salon this week and was wondering what I should say to the stylist to help it grow back better? Should I tell her that I just want enough cut off the longer strands on the top and sides to become closer to the lenght of the shorter strands in the lower back and trim the split ends on the shorter hairs so it will all blend in better?

Don't get monthly cuts. Let it grow out and then get it evened if you wish. Cutting on a monthly basis is not the way to grow hair long.

Well if you have a picture of how you want your hair to be, bring it in to the salon, as that will be useful.

Leave it alone. It looks bad now, but furthur intrusions on it will probably just make it look worse. Or a lot will have to be taken off to make it look good again. Just let it be, and let that be a lesson for you! :) It will look normal again in a few months, but you gotta stop messing with it :) Resist the urge for a quick fix, and just ride it out. It probably looks alot better then you think it does. Thats kind of my mantra. haha.
Now that, my friend...

If you plan to have long hair, it's good that the top and sides are longer than the back. Unless you don't want it to all be the same length once it's grown out.
