I messed up…bad. Send help please!

Do not flame me too bad, my self esteem is already shot haha. So I got baby bangs which I loved but were a little too thick/mushroom looking. I used the Wayne Tuggle bang trick which thinned them TOO much.

They aren’t awful if I had stopped there. I then wanted to add some choppy layers but I for sure overdid it.

Now my hair is super thin, plus the bangs I butchered. The top of my head looks like a coconut lol.

I don’t know what to do from here. I have an event mid March to attend. I do have extensions I can use but I don’t know if it would help. I was thinking maybe a bob but with the short layers I don’t think it could save it. Is this a wait and let it grow situation?
