Have the hairdresser give you a style your mom hates. Something outragous. Maybe that will stop it.
-
thats waaaay to controling. maybe simple things like saying "how am i supposed to live in this world once i move out of home, if you wont let me choose something so simple as my hair length? please let me be my own person" . does she threaten to punish you?
-
Why does she want you to go every 2 weeks? I love to be diva and I go every 11/2 months. That's a bit much! What does she have you to get done?
-
Well, shave your head would make going pointless. My son hated going to have his hair done as well so we compromised, I bought electric hair trimmers and did it at home. Have you perhaps tried suggesting to your mum that you buy the products you need to make your hair look good and have her do it at home for you?

she's you mom. unless she's doing something that's hurting you or being neglectful, just deal with it. you're a kid & she rules until you're 18, which is two years away. i think you'll be fine.

You might ask her why she is doing this? Is this for her benefit or for your benefit? If she says it's for you, then ask her why she feels this will benefit you, particularly since you don't agree. Point out that she is doing this more for her benefit than for your benefit. If she is willing to acknowledge this, ask her how it benefits her for you to have your hair done? How often does she have her hair done? Does she want you to duplicate her life experiences? Is she trying to live through you those experiences she missed in her life? Ask.

Wow, Your 16. I'm 13 and if My mom's making me do something I don't want, I simply tell her no a couple times or give her reason. Your almost an adult, you can make your own decisions by now. Just tell her why and if that doesn't work.. and your mom isn't really strict like mine, then just refuse to get in the car :) Good luck.

I would say get a hairstyle your mom hates to spite her.
-
shave ur head! that'll show her who's boss. footnote: you might wanna stock up on wigs if you decide to do this.

Maybe your mom is very beauty conscious and is trying to impart similar habits upon you, as part of having a more joyful life when you are on your own. Two more years, then if you are willing you can work 2 or 3 jobs, support yourself, leave home, and do as you like.
