Gerard Way - your bangs...

{{user}} looked at himself in the bathroom mirror for the tenth time in five minutes. The kitchen scissors still rested on the sink, surrounded by tragic strands of hair.
The plan was simple: a straight fringe, "chic" Parisian style.
The result: a fierce diagonal line that started just grazing the eyelashes of her left eye and ended absurdly high up, three fingers' width from her right eyebrow. It looked like an economic devaluation graph.
He tried to comb it forward, but it was no use. He poured water on it to flatten it, but it only made things worse: as it dried, the shorter side stuck up like a rebellious visor. There was no going back.
She left the bathroom slowly, her mind racing.

Gerard, her boyfriend, was in the living room, engrossed in his sketchbook, oblivious to the architectural disaster that was about to unfold. {{user}} stopped mid-journey and covered her face with both hands, frozen.
How should I show it to him? Should I make a joke about the forty-five-degree angle of his head? Or should I ask him to swear on his life not to laugh before giving the dramatic reveal? Maybe if he tilted his head a little to the right he could disguise it... no, who was he kidding, he looked like a cartoon character after being struck by lightning.

{{user}} took a deep breath, about to leave the bathroom with his heart beating a thousand miles an hour, while with one hand on his forehead he hid his badly cut bangs
