Honest opinions (hair related)

I have been going back and forth with wanting to chop my very long hair off into an angular bob that hits the chin.
I decided to play around by holding my hair back and taking pics to create an effect of short hair. Please vote - I need help deciding to do. TIA

Re: Honest opinions (hair related)

evertime i cut my hair, i hate it and want to grow it out
considering you have such gorgeous hair, i wouldnt do a thing because it would take a very long time for it to grow back.

this is coming from a girl who had it butchered and has not had a cut since february since im trying to grow it out, so maybe my opinion is a little biased

Re: Honest opinions (hair related)

Just cut it a little but keep it long. Its so pretty! But you can afford to take off 2 inches or so, and maybe go to a stylist that can give it shape.

Whenever I am bored and want to cut my hair I go to the hair dresser and ask for more shape but tell them to keep the length.

A woman I worked with had long hair like yours and then chopped it to look like Victoria Beckham's and I love it on her. I think it is best to talk to your stylist and get their input. They will know if the cut will or will not work for you.

This is my exact problem. I have been stalling my re-shape of my long hair style until I have fully decided what I want to do. I want to donate if I decide to cut it short and I don't want to go for my reshape and then decide the next day that i want to chop it off. Chat Icon

Thanks ladies for the compliments and input. I get the same back and forth with my colleagues at work. Everyone eithewr tells me I would look awesome with an angular bob or not to touch my hair because it is too pretty.

This is SOOOOOOO hard! I wish I were more decisive!

I have long hair and everytime i cut it super short i hate it. so I'd say go with a longer-short cut, and you can always go back and get a few more inches cut off if its not short enough.

I think you would look great with a short cut though, you have the right shape face

Bri I think we have this conversation every Saturday morning Chat Icon

I LOVE your hair, it's so gorgeous, long and healthy to boot!

However, I think you have really been wanting a change for a while and I think you will look FABULOUS!! And the beauty of it is, if you miss your hair you can always grow it back Chat Icon

I agree with the pp's - not too short. Maybe something like this?

Re: Honest opinions (hair related)

I think you should go for it! My friend grows her hair as long as yours - grows really fast and strong and healthy and then chops it to donate - has done this three times. This last time she did a very short angular cut and it looked fabulous!
It's hair, it's grows, go for it! You'll never know unless you do it!
