Hi, all !
 
I am a guy with brunette, wavy hair almost to the middle of my back.  I had never considered cutting my hair short until recently.  I was on a trip to a wedding with my cousin this summer, and we stopped at a salon on the way so she could get her eyebrows done.  I was sitting in the waiting area flipping through the style books just to pass the time when I saw a picture that just leapt off the page.  She had, what I was told, a wavy layered short bob.  It was blonde streaked, came to the base of her ears, and had a shaved back (almost like a mushroom cut).  I am seriously thinking of getting my hair cut like that, but have been unable to find that picture again.  I would love to try that cut.

The long hair fan in me says "Awwwww", but to help you -

sounds like you want a layered angled bob (angled meaning its super short to shaved in the back and angles longer in the front).  Anya Monzikova's style?  http://www.short-hair-styles-magazine.com/2006-short-hair-style-pictures.html - http://www.short-hair-styles-magazine.com/2006-short-hair-style-pictures.html

I realize that is blonde, not highlighted, and probably curlier than wavy.  You're right, it IS hard to find a photo!

Hi, Susan!
 
Thanks for the reply!  Checked out the picture, not really what I was looking for.  My friend April suggested I watch "Hollow Man" on the weekend for some inspiration, hadn't seen it in a few years.  The cut that Elizabeth Shue has is the closest one to the picture that I've seen so far, now I just need some pictures of that cut so I can make a decision.
 
Thanks again!
