Hair cut

Your hair sounds beautiful just the way it is. Don't get me wrong, I am all for freedom of hair and if you want to cut it, it's up to you, but you said that you didn't REALLY want to give up your hair. In my oppinion if you cut it it will be a recipe for regret. Maybe you just need to try some new styles. Get a book on braids and long hair dos. Go to a mall accesory store and get some new ties and barettes. Or splurge and get some of the beatiful Rare Jewels hair jewlery. Please don't cut your hair unless you are absolutly sure that it's what you want. Wait a few weeks to be positive. I hope this helps. - Johannah

> Hi, I'm interested in a new style. My hair has been> the same for about 4-5 years (long, auburn, and> straight, with bangs). I'm 27 and newly-married.

They have all the latest hairstyles in there. I decided I was going to keep my long hair for awhile and that magazine gave me the idea to try hot rollers. Maybe you just need to update by getting layers, razer the edges, trying hot rollers, etc to get some pizazz back. I would try that first before taking the plunge-I've done that before and then right back to growing it long and wishing I hadn't cut it again. Another idea I have done in the past is to go to the salon and take home a few of their books and photocopying the ones I liked and waited a few days before actually cutting my hair. There are some webistes also that show hairstyles. Hoped I helped you!
