Going back to stylist after haircut?

I had my haircut yesterday - and it was a major haircut from long to a short/layered bob. I have thick hair so it is pretty tough to manage. I went in looking for a Katie Holmes type bob haircut, and what I have is similar, but there is a long section at the nape of my neck, and it reminds me of a mullet. I can see that this can be very stylish (I've seen Mandy Moore with this haircut, but not quite as nice), but it sticks out A LOT and isn't quite me.

I was willing to give it a try for a few days before judging, but I don't think it will work. I know the stylist realized I was a little iffy about the back, but I liked the front (though shocking to me).

Should I :

a) go back to this expensive stylist 20 miles away to fix it... this requires arranging a babysitter, etc. I'm not sure if I'll keep going back to him anyway because he was $85.

b) just go to Great Clips down the street and have them taper the bottom to be more like an angled bob.

Don't know what to do!

my mom is a hair dresser, and if someone doesn't like what she did, she usually fixes it for free. of course, she doesn't charge $85 dollars to begin with! to be honest, i don't like great clips (my mom does my hair!), but if you trust the people there, i would go in for a quick fix if the other hair dresser won't comp the redo.

I say, go back to the person who did the cut. He should fix it for no charge since he most likely knew you were iffy on the cut before you left his chair. BUT-- I guess what it comes down to is what's most convenient for you. I personally would not go to Great Clips (I've had WAAAY too many bad haircuts from them!). Maybe there's another stylist closer to you who can help you out? Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

Go back to the hairstylist and get it fixed. If he truly wants you as a customer he wouldnt charge you a thing. If he does, just let him know that you shouldnt pay him more money than what you already have for an unsatifactory job.
