I am really sick of my hair.I want to change it but my parents won't let me.Anyways, here's what I wanted to do, I wanted to cut itabout shoulder length and I wanted to highlight thin strips of it blonde. I am sure about the dying part but I'm not so sure about the cutting part. I want my hair straight, right now its like wavy straight,it is semi-thick and it is a heavy texture, it is about to my kidneysright now, my friend used to have really wavy hair, and when she cut hers, it turned more straight, if I cut my hair, will it be straight and shoulderlength or wavy and frizzy and shoulder length??My hair is like a dark brown, almost black color.

Hi,I am in the process of writing a brand new article for A Brides Friend site that features my hair tips and articles. I am writing how to make changes to your hair, without risking permanent damage or irreversible actions like cutting your hair and then regretting it.Here is a brief synopsis of my article.You can get a different look for your hair and banish boredom with these simple steps:1. Add/subtract/change or highlight bangs. If you have bangs, change the look of the bangs. Have the bangs thinned out or cut in multiple lengths so that the middle part is shorter and highlights your eyes but the sides are longer and can be worn down hugging the face or gelled back. Add tiny highlights of fat chunks of color. Use temporary hair mascara to test the look before you make it permanent.If you don't have bangs. Add them. If you have them...grow them out. This provides an instant new look for your hair without any major cutting or drastic changes.2. Change the part of your hair. Add multiple parts, add messy parts, add thinner parts, fatter parts or even change the direction of the part. Wear part of your hair up, part down, wear part pulled back and part down loose. Many ways to change the look with this approach.3. Add temporary color in the form of wash out color, hair mascara streaks or temporary chunks.4. Add hair jewelry. How about multiple hair ties or multiple scrunchies or jeweled butterfly pins or even multiple barrettes? You can do all sorts of different looks.When I get bored with my hair I will do all of the above. I will also wear it braided and up for several days, or parted in the middle instead of the side. I will wear it heavily gelled at the sides or scrunched up to accent the waves.Play with your hair, be creative and avoid major changes that you might regret until you have really had lots of time to comptemplate if you are really into a major change or just temporarily bored.Hope this helps.KarenBy the way, I am writing this with one side of my hair gelled back and pinned and one side hanging in waves. I like the look. Kind of multiple personality. :-)> I am really sick of my hair.> I want to change it but my parents won't let me.> Anyways, here's what I wanted to do, I wanted to cut> it> about shoulder length and I wanted to highlight thin> strips of it blonde.
