Would you cut your hair. My hair is almost midback and i'm thinking about going for the chop. Whats the shortest you would ever cut your hair.

Re: How Short

The shortest I've had my hair was a really short pixie - about 1/2 inch all around (except for the front & sides). Then I grew it into a normal pixie...and from there I've had just about every "in-between" style Chat Icon Now it's about an inch below my shoulder.

How short you cut it really deends on the type of hair you have.

Re: How Short

If it wasn't for my DH having a thing for long hair (mine is mid-back as well), I'd cut mine back to chin length, especially while caring for an infant. Because of DH's influence, the shortest I would go would be just below the shoulders.

I wish I could pull off the short pixie cut, but at my height/size and with my face, I'd most definitely be mistaken as a man. Chat Icon I encouraged my girlfriend to do it and she looked awesome/hot with it. It changed her attitude as well. She seemed to have a lot more spunk when her hair was shorter. External Image

See, my DH is the opposite. i dont know why its weird to me, but it is.. i always assumed most guys liked longer hair better Chat Icon My hair is mid back also, but he's always saying i should get like a shoulder length cut. I think he just thinks my hair is boring though b/c i never do anything with it. Chat Icon
So, i go back and forth about choppingit, but then when i see a pic of someone with long hair, i love it, and i feel like i'll miss my hair too much Chat Icon

to answer the question though- i'd only go as short as 'to the shoulders'. Anything shorter than that, and i'd look like someone's little brother Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: How Short

I've had it to a bob above my chin and I've had it long.....I take long hands down because the shorter I go, the most out of control my hair!

Re: How Short

me personally - shoulder length - but that is because I have really thick hair and if it gets any shorter than that it poufs out. If I had finer hair though, I would go for a really short cut in a second, I love short hairstyles.

I don't think I look good with anything shorter than shoulder length. I've tried it, it just wasn't me.

Re: How Short

My hair is very short right now. Layered, under the chin bob. I would love to go shorter but honestly, it's a pain not being able to pull my hair back so I'm probably going to grow this length out. It looks pretty. DH always told me he loved me with short hair, but we were looking through old pics this weekend, and he said, "You know? I think I like your hair better longer." Dork.

Re: How Short

I cut my hair to an inverted bob in Oct, which the front was right at my chin...it was the shortest I've EVER had it, but the 10 inches that I chopped off I donated to Locks of Love...and its hair it grows back...and my hair is already 2-3 inches longer.

Re: How Short

I like shoulder length, mostly b/c it's still easy to put up in pony tail or something when you want to keep it back.

My DH says the same thing and I think for the same reason. Although I almost shot him when I did get my hair cut a little shorter then I intended (it was b/w my shoulders and chin) and he said it would look better an inch longer. Chat Icon

Re: How Short

The shortest I've ever cut my hair was super short - like an inch and a half long most everywhere. It was AWFUL, for me at least, but I didn't choose it for myself. I was a hair model for a friend who was training to be a hair dresser. I'm tall and my hair is curly so it was just BAD. I was picking up women left and right for about 6 months, which is all fine and good except I'm not gay. Chat Icon Now the shortest I'll go is chin length, but I'm been trying to grow my hair long right now.

Re: How Short

I had the pixie short cropped hair when I was in my 20's and I thought it suited me.

DH likes long hair and I've been growing it, but when it goes past a certain length it doesn't look good on me so I keep cutting it.

Re: How Short

I love my short hair!!! It gets wavy when it's getting too long, and the ends just kind of stick out. I usually get it cut every 8-9 weeks.

Re: How Short

it depends on what type of hair - if i had straght hair - my hair would be short - but bc my hair is curly the shorter i go the wider it gets - so shoulder length is unfortunately my limit

post pics when you get it cut!!
