How to grow out a short awkward hair cut??

ok so i cut my hair in may, really short like in this picture of kirsten dunst.http://oscars.movies.yahoo.com/photos/ph...

the problem is, it's a couple inches longer now and it really doesn't work anymore. the sides are longer than the back, and the layers that looked good short are awkward now. i'm trying to grow it out, but it needs a trim. any suggestions on how i should eventually end up with the sides shorter, the layers cut into something that could look good longer, and get it into a regular shape that i can grow out?

Experiment with headbands, head scarves, and clips to hide the awkward layers- and if you're brave enough, try and trim it yourself.

I cut my own hair for a while, and nothing terrible happened- just make sure you have a decent pair of shears- the long, thin ones that come to a point. Hair shears, if bought at a supply store, can be as cheap as $15.

Cut slowly and patiently.

Or check local beauty schools to see if they do hair demonstrations- which are usually free, and well-monitored by the teacher.
