Awww thanks everyone.....panics overLOL
  
The only thing I'm having probs with is some cowlicky bits that insist on going the opposite of where I want them, but my hairs that used to being in a side parting it'll take a week or two of washing and styling for It to re-adjust.
 
I forgot how liberating it actually is to cut all of your hair off, I was really concerned that I'd look too boyish being bigger than I used to be, but I've been told I couldn't look manly if I tried so thats something.
 
Whats strange is the reaction from people. The people who tried to talk me out of it are now the ones that love it the most!!!
 
My whole wardrobes changed too...I got rid of a 3rd of my wardrobe. Anything that made me look older or frumpy went in the charity bin.
 
I now have new funky baggies, cute Disney shirts and some really cute little hoodies...I feel like the old me and the real me, not hiding behind my old boring long hair.
 
Thanks for all the advice and lovely comments....SHORT HAIR ROCKS!!!!!! Big%20smileBig%20smileStarStarStarStar

It's such a big improvement! If I looked that good short I'd never want to grow my hair long again.

Wow hottie alert. You look much sexier with short hair.

Plus you look much smaller that a size 14. Good choice of style Clap

I really like the first picture of what you're thinking about; I think it will suit you just fine.

If you are worried about being larger now, I wouldn't go for the shaved look but a pixie with height would help - the first pic you posted looks awesome to me and I think would work with your features.

Do you have a picture of what you looked like when it was bald?  I ask because that would give a good indication of your forehead and just your overall look.  Yes you say you are bigger now but it would still give a good idea on what it would look like in the future.  Or do you have any pics of what it looked like while you were growing it out?

I'm a lot bigger than I was when I had my head shaved (stone heavier) so was concerned it may not suit me, although I only a british size 14
