Advice on what to ask for at hairdressers?

I can't be bothered to take in a picture because I find just shoving a photograph in their face and telling them to get on with it doesn't really work, they can't really tell much from a picture other than the basic style you want. My hair is already cut into the basic style I want - side fringe just below chin level, layered on top so I can mess it up, etc, kinda like scene/emo hair.

Basically, my hairs got very long now, so I want it cut back a bit but I'm not really sure how to put it. I want the back of my hair cut back quite a lot because it's now grown so much it looks kinda like a mullet. I want it taken back up so I can spike it a bit at the back, while still keeping the length on the sides and the fringe, and layered on the top so I can mess it up.

My ideas are kinda jumbled.

Thanks for any advice.

spaeking as a qualified hairdresser basically what you want is your trimmed, a shorter style of what you have now? Am i right? Just show them the lenght you want your hair to be and then tell them you want very choppy texturised layers on the top so you can wear it messy.
