LisaKinVA Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I cut my hair...SHORT. The bangs (front) was supposed to be a bit longer/angled down, swoopy-type. That didn't happen, but overall, I'd say this is an improvement from the pulled-back short pony-tail/wimpy bun I've been wearing for the better part of the past 5 years. I told dh...it's just hair. It will grow. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truscifi Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I think it looks great! And it should be quick and easy to style too. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaKinVA Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Thanks! I'll retake a photo after I put some make-up on. This is the one I texted dh...so he wouldn't be quite so shocked. He hadn't seen it when I walked in. I think it looks pretty good, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunnyDays Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 It's cute! I've never been brave enough to go that short, but I'm currently in the same "past shoulder length, throw it back in a ponytail" stage that you mentioned and I'm ready for some kind of change!!

dsmith Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Looks great! I've been getting a bit shorter each cut, but haven't made it above the top of my shoulder yet. If it were up to dh my hair would be to my butt. :001_huh: I can't imagine how much of a hassle that would be to take care of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eternalknot Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I envy those of you who can (a) carry off short hair, and (b) are so brave to do it! I know it's hair, I know it grows back, and yet .... I'm a coward LOL. The difference between that picture and your avatar isn't huge - you have the kind of great face that can rock either - both - hairstyles!

Chava_Raizel Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I think it looks fabulous! I've contemplated going short, but I always chicken out at the salon. The shortest I've gone so far is chin length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signed, Envious Either short or long (well, at least shoulder length), I look really, really bad in around the chin-length style of any type...:D My hair is so much thinner than it was 2 years ago...and wearing it back was making it break...so I just "did" it. I think the stylist was more terrified of cutting it than I was of cutting it short. I haven't had it like this since I was 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garga Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Awesome! I've had short hair for years and am only now growing it out, just because I want a change, too. Short hair is fun. You still have to style it in the morning, but you don't have to brush it or worry about tangles for the rest of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I would post it up here for you or anyone else that might find it helpful. The girl talks way too much and is silly, but the technique is good. Just fast forward to 3:06 on the video, that's where she starts showing how to actually cut the bangs. HTH. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will grow. ;) But I like my no style pony-tail/wimpy look. Well, I don't put it in a bun but just wear a pony tail all the time. I used to have super short hair and it was so easy, practical, and cute. But for some reason I'm just scared to do it again! Good for you to make the decision when you've been thinking about it so long. It really looks good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barb_ Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Also, it looks like you have a lot of natural wave or curl? Some stylists forget to account for that when they cut bangs. They look like they will grow out and relax into swoopy in a couple or three weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
