You would look great in a pixie, a short crop cut, ...you know maybe like Alyssa Milano or Jamie Lee Curtis. You are pretty so it would work for you!

I agree a pixie would look very good on you, I think short bangs would look nice too...

I'm African-American and wear my hair in a very short afro. I don't think a lady as lovely as yourself can go wrong in a short hair style.

Go to a salon and talk with an experienced stylist. See what he or she suggests.

Check short haired websites on the net too for some ideas.

I'll second the Jamie Lee Curtis idea-- the haircut she got in _Freaky Friday_ was especially nice because it was youthful and fun. But if you don't like something quite that short, there are longer styles that are kinda flippy or spiky. That might be nice, too.
More awesome than a manatee!

I love the idea KYM of you going that short with your hair I think it would be delightful, but how are you going to get an "afro" type of ultra short crop that is that short, when your hair is so straight and Caucasion?

Just be careful-- if you make that drastic a change all at once there's a chance you might feel guilty about it after. . . kind of like "buyers' remorse" but with hair. . . Might be a better idea to try something more moderate first and go shorter later, if you feel comfortable with it. If you're dead-set on the buzz and feel like you'll be able to handle any possible adverse reactions from either yourself or others, though, you can go for it.

If you do want it cut ultra short like a short afro I think that is wonderful. Let us know what you decide.

It's adorable kym! I love it, you look sooo beautiful!
To be honest, yes you could have even gone shorter but one step at a time. You are doing fine girl! Best wishes!

Very hot.

Could you post that before picture again? You really got a lot of hair cut off. It would be tough to go shorter than your picture, but if you like it short, then take advantage of trying different hairstyles. If you cut it even shorter and don't like it, it will be this long in a month or two.

You would look great in a short pixie.

Go on one of Alyssa Milano's websites and look at her hair, or photos of her hair that have been posted on the celebrity board here on Hair Talk. She has the prettiest short pixie!

It would look good on you too!

I'd just keep the current one for a month or two and play with it a while before deciding whether to go shorter or not. No sense wasting a perfectly good haircut when there's plenty you could do to play with it, with like little clippies or hairpins or stick-on jewels or whatever :-) .
