So for some reason my GF (of almost 5 years) decided to get highlights and lowlights in her hair. She said her hair had no life, so fine get a cut and blow dry. Her mother told her to do all these different things. I told her, and she knows I don't like light color hair and she knows I absolutely LOVE the way her hair is naturally. It's perfect! She comes in today with these highlights of a dark blonde I guess you can say. She even said it was more than she wanted but over a text she said "she thinks she likes it." Anyway, I'm not a fan of it. And it was very clear with my reaction. It's not like she looks awful or anything but I just don't understand why in the world she wanted to change the colors in her hair when she knew I thought it was PERFECT.
So now she's upset at me that I didnt say I liked it. What in the world am I suppose to do? Lie say I like it and have her continue to do this when I really don't like it at all. Her hair was perfect and now, it's just different with the colors. It's obvious I'm not a fan of it.
I'm hoping everyone else doesn't lie to her too/ or genuinely think it looks good. She's such a great looking girl, she did not need to change a thing!
What would you do? I'm telling her it doesn't look bad but I love the way her hair is naturally. Is that all I can do. I have no idea how long these things last.
I don't get women. They want me to love the way they are but when they change something I need to love that change?
Just read the highlights and lowlights last three months. Not so bad. Just don't want to lie to her to have her get it again.
You always wait for the right time to say you don't like it, not whenever you feel like it.

Yup . . there is no winning that conversation. I have learned to stop asking men these questions because their are either going to lie or tell me what I might not want to hear. I use to spend over a hour blow drying my hair straight and if asked if he like it .. the delayed response said it all ..." ahhh ya... its okay". That particular response is the ultimate man BS response. I know if I get that response something is up but he does not want to tell me because he know it will take another hour to get ready because I will try and find something else or totally re-do my hair or make up. I know when I get that answer he is weighing out the outcome of what he is just about to say.

Yes. My husband doesn't critic me about anything; not my hair, not my clothing, not my cooking, not my driving, nothing. I love that about him usually, but I'll admit that there are times when I wish he'd tell me honestly if he thinks my saimin is too salty or not.
If he ever asked me, I would tell him that I don't really care for his mustache. But he hasn't asked, so...
He did mention to me once that I had mistakenly put my top on inside-out. That was thoughtful of him, I thought!
It is really nice to see a happy update. Thanks for coming back and letting us know how it all worked out!
Don't know about happy, he's trapped!
