Hello!
I am new here!  :)

I am thinking of making a change with my hair.  Back in the winter, I went from a ho-hum shoulder length, non-descript hairstyle to a collar-bone length bob.  Then I went to a slightly graduated bob.  I am now thinking about a stacked, graduated bob.  I have fine hair that has quite a bit of wave to it.  I like to wear it wavy as well as straight.   I also tend to have much more "weight" in my hair towards the bottom -- so I have to be careful to not have a "pyramid" effect.

I don't want to go super short -- but would love some ideas.  Any thoughts/suggestions?  Thanks so much!

Thanks for the link.  It is soo tough to decide on the right style.  Of course, it *is* only hair, right?!  LOL.

If you have more weight at the bottom, just have the stylist make the stacked part at a more severe angle...in other words, the weight part would be higher up on the back and taper down to the bottom.

That is an excellent point re: the angling and the pyramid. 

I am perusing photos online/magazines/etc. to find a style that really speaks to me.  Once I find a few inspirational cuts -- I will make the appointment.
