Couple of weeks of looking silly sounds like torture for a person with already low self esteem :)

But I will try your advice if I didn’t find anything better.

Personally, I would try to realize others might respect you more for confident behavior like trying new hairstyles instead of ridicule you if the hairstyle isn’t the best for a few weeks.

  Never thought of it that way. I try to never judge people based off appearance, but I know people around me do.

    If I see someone I know (especially someone I know to have issues with self esteem) trying something like a new haircut, or asking a girl out or really anything that presents a social risk, I gain respect for them.
    
    Heed some advice from Nelson Mandela:
    
    I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

You can try wearing a hat for those weeks if it’s that bad.

If you know someone with good hair, ask where they get theirs done. And try not to worry.
