I must admit i quite liked the lighter colour, but if it started to look too brassy then you did the right thing going darker. It's strange i've never thought of it as ponytail withdrawal, just that you want long hair again. So are you thinking of getting a more classic one length bob then? You could do it now but it would mean it would be shorter at the side, although it is summer and boy it's hot out there LOL. Well let us know what you decide, it's always a pleasure seeing how different styles can change a persons appearence.
i recolored it a darker brown, the lighter color got really brassy really fast. i havent cut it. i'm holding off until school starts again. i think i want to bring the back down a bit. i think i am having pony tail withdrawal after about a year!

What was it that you were looking for? I think she / he did cut the back a litttle short without finishing the cut. It does not look that bad though, it looks well. When your ready to trim it up let me know and IM me and I can walk you thru what to tell your stylist.

Well it looks like pretty much as you photoshopped it. However i an see what you mean that it's not quite right. I think a different stylist is a very good idea. Plus everytime you go it gets closer to what you want. It looks good on you but when you get the more layered version you will look even hotter and more goerous than you are now. Hang on in there
its just not exactly what i wanted (what ever is?)
I'm going to a few big events (graduations) in the next few weeks and i was stressing about that. But i'm figuring out how to style and play with it so everythings ok.
i think youre right conrad, it just takes a few days to get used to it!

just curious what pictures did you bring? (can you post them?)
this is EXACTLY what i thought the cut would look like on you based off of the picture you made by photoshopping the short cut.
the haircut you got is simply a "lip length bob with an elevated nape"
was the cut done using a razor, scissors or an electric clipper (in back)?
i cant really understand what you want from what you say.... is the back part whats wrong? (too short?) or is it that you hair is getting shorter and shorter each time?
anyway ill say again i think it looks REALLY good and you totally rock the short hair (totally blows away your long hair pic)

Long with BLUNT bangs or ALL cut to lip length, I cant decide my favorite!

It looks good to me! But if you are not happy with it, then look for a new stylist. If you see someone with the hair style you like, go up and ask them who cut it, and they will usually tell you, expecially if you compliment on their hairstyle. Speaking from my wifes personal experience, when she got it cut shorter this last time, she did not like it right off the bat b/c it was not the same cut as prior, and her usual styling did not work. About 2 days or three days later, she admitted she really liked it shorter b/c she figured out how to style it correctly.
Thanks for sharing!

I think it looks good also but if you don't like it then it is time for a new stylist IF...the style you are going for (sounds like it is) is able for your hair type..

It doesn't look bad; in fact, I think it looks pretty good. It always takes a couple of days for hair to find its way to looking good when you get more than a trim. Give it some time, I think it will grow on you.
If you're not happy with the stylist, I'd find a new one. There's a stylist out there for you; one that will listen and give you what you want.
Again, thanks for posting. It looks very nice on you.
so basically i used a color that was a few levels lighter than what i normally use. problem was my hair tends to lighten over time after i color it, so there wasnt really a big difference in the finished color
I'm planning on getting it cut next monday. i know i waited to long, because my hair looks pretty special right about now.
here's the new color when my hair is straitened
these next pictures are after letting my hair airdry
right side (these are the same color, first is w/ flash)
left side (same color, first picture is w/ flash)
back
front
whew! hope this doesnt bore you all. hopefully you can get an idea of the color because there is a mix of pictures w/ and w/o the flash. i cant wait to get it cut!
