I found some cute styles that are a bit less wild. I just can't pick one. I dunno what would look best on me. I think they all will...but ahhhh...I can't decide. Please vote and/or leave a comment. I have wavy hair that can be kinda unmanageable when it gets humid outside. And it usually tends to be a bit curly at the ends. Me: And now the hairstyles I've been thinking about: ONE TWO THREE ------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |

Just wondering...why is it perfect? LOL! Maybe because I have round features. I have actually seen this style a number of times on different chicks and thought it was cute. I'm a little scared about the bangs for it though. Afraid they might look bad after awhile in between cuts. Did they use like a texturizer to get that effects with the hair. Of course, wait an hour and my hair will look like that. All messy... ------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |

My vote is for # 3 too. Your pic reminds me of a young Justine Bateman. Best of luck with your decision. |

LOL! Wow...my head looks big in flat hair. I think I'm going to go with number three because so many people think it would look nice. I had only put it up there...not because I was absolutely crazy about it, but because for some reason I thought it might be a nice look for me. I just hope it looks good without the highlights. ------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |

Does anyone know a good product that will create that slightly messy effect? I know it is like a texturizer or something, but I dunno what would be a good brand to buy. I have bought that sort of product in the past and it always made my hair greasy.  ------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |

| #3 is one of those cuts that only looks as good as it does because of the mix of style and unique coloring - much like another style someone posted in another topic. |

So which did you pick?  And I shoudl make the comment that I am not going to be coloring my hair. Maybe I should pick another style then.  Ugh...Uh...any style that will hide my huge round nose and forehead.------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |

| I think you look great the way you are right now over those 3 choices, but if you want a change, chose the one that would make you most comfortable. |

Well, I think it is well known that I change my mind every two minutes. I showed my mom various styles I was interested in and she says to keep in mind my hair will turn out shorter than I wanted because that's just what my hairstylist does. She will cut it a bit too short at times. My mom thinks these two styles I have saved on my computer are good.

Actually I was searching the web and found a style that I can so see myself in. Lots of variations of it...I think. They look like all the same girl. I sorta fell in love with the style...but knowing me I'll change my mind instantly.

I like that last one-- lots of variety in styles to try with it ^_^ . Very good idea, if you're the type who changes your mind easily, as you can make it look totally different from day to day! ------------- More awesome than a manatee! |

No...I don't have any pics of me with short hair. But here is a pic taken this morning (my hair is wet and pulled back):
I'm not sure what face shape it even is. I think it's a longer face than most so maybe that's why I look terrible in short, short hair. ------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |

| well i dont think you would look terrible in short hair at all! so tell us how excited are you about getting a new look? and what style are you leaning towards? i voted for number 3 so i hope number 3 |

My ideas for hair cuts are varying in length. I plan on taking them to the stylist and asking what she thinks. I have this for my short hair idea: This for my medium length idea: Which those aren't that different of lengths but...LOL! That's as long as I can get my hair since it comes to my chin area in the front. And then gets about shoulder length in the back. Also I have this last style which is not short in any way, but it is if I decide to keep the most the length and get it styled. This is the only style I could find that would let me keep my length because everything else requires it to be a lot longer. ------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |

Oh...and no way am I going to go with #3. I got a PM from someone with a hairstyle very similar. Let's just say I looked terrible! It made my head look like it was so much skinnier. I think something chin length will work. Blah...yuck yuck yuck yuck yuck! Why can't have a prettier face? ------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |

Women with long faces can look very hot in short hair, if it's done right ^_^ . Just look at these pics of Nakayama Akiko I put up: http://photobucket.com/albums/b302/naia_zifu/ - http://photobucket.com/albums/b302/naia_zifu/ ! *puts her in my pocket and keeps her* She is sugoi ^_^ . ------------- More awesome than a manatee! |

Yes...and no...I have two styles that I have been thinking about and I am going to take both and see what she thinks. I have two pictures of each so she will get a feel for what I am wanting. I have this look: I love the bangs in the second one!
Or something like this! I was going to ask for her to cut it about an inch shorter than the brunette. I like her style more. But I was going to take both. ------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |

My opinion? Go with this. It flatter your face shape, will work with your hair straight or wavy/curly, and won't have an awkward growing out stage like an angled bob would. I really think this is your best option and would have simulated what it looked like on you if my paint program hadn't crashed on me. This is a longer version of the layered/banged bob you said you liked and I think it will work better. Second possibility would be this from one of your other posts:
And at this point, stop trying to please your mom. Obviously anything shorter than what it is currently is going to be outside of her comfort zone. I think once you get something like this done, however, she'll see how flattering it is and how happy you are with it and come around a bit. Oh, and for what it's worth, I'd say thin your brows just a bit. Don't get me wrong, I think they look great now. And I'm not saying pencil thin, as I'm a big proponent of thicker, natural brows. I hate it when the Salma Hayeks and Jennifer Connellys of the world overpluck. But I think yours could be shaped just a bit more and they would look even better. Send me an email ( mailto:jerkyflea@hairboutique.com - jerkyflea@hairboutique.com ) and I'll send you a pic with a simulation so you can see what I mean. Good luck and let us know how it turns out, JF ------------- 3 pm is simultaneously too late and too early to start anything. |

I got a haircut today...and I did pluck my eyebrows back a little this morning after someone else mentioned it to me via PM. They look a little better now. http://www.livejournal.com/users/cichlidchick85/19437.html - http://www.livejournal.com/users/cichlidchick85/19437.html ------------- Elizabeth 2b/M/ii pixie/20"/waist |
I did go in and get my hair cut...sorry color is off...I had to lighten them so that the hair is more visible. I did a bob pretty much with some side swept bangs.Posted By: Kuroneko
