Okay...I need a change! Now, I don`t really have a hairstylist, so just going to a salon won`t do it for me I don`t think...I`m a bit too afraid to do that.
My hair is 3 inches past my shoulders and is cut in layers that are growing out. There is also a perm in there that is growing out...but mostly it is just dull.
I don`t like spending forever on my hair, although I do that a lot when I try to go somewhere. In fact, if I could choose a style, it would be one where I could just wash and go...maybe a curling iron here and there.
I have bangs and like to keep bangs, wispy with a little height.
I just checked my face shape and it is slightly oval, but my forehead is wide and somewhat square at the top. However, when I smile, my cheeks come out, so I look a bit pear shaped. Also a bit wide from top to bottom of my forehead. I have a large forehead, in other words. My hair is brown, kind of light to medium brown. Hot rollers to NOTHING for me...just make it into a big mess. I either let go natural...which looks messy (which I don`t like) or I curl it and it loses curl immediately.
I will cut it, but don`t want a very SHORT style.
Please e-mail me, or post suggestions for me!
Thanks so much!

Rushell, sounds to me like you need to get rid of the damaged, permed area. You didn`t say what your normal hair type is, can I assume it is straight? I think a longish shag would look good. It is a very flattering cut and will get rid of a lot of the permed hair. The length can be at or right above shoulder. Keep wispy, side swept bangs to cover your forehead. Good luck.
p.s. Since you don`t have a hairstylist, please check references before going to a salon. I also think golden blonde highlights would look good with your color hair.

What does that look like? The shag...

My natural hair when I was young was curly. Now it is naturally wavy, but won`t hold a curl well.

(Does that make sense?)

Thanks for the advice.

yes, it is the new updated version of the old shag. This would look good because it should look different on everyone, and with your hair being naturally wavy, I think thats even better. . Let me know when you get your cut and what you decide on.
