AGREED! Best ... advice ... evuh!

I think you should go for it! It'll grow back if you don't like it. I'm one who likes change a lot. I cut over 8 inches off of mine last spring.

I always kept my hair long, but last year I decided to hack it all off on a whim. My husband loves it, and it's sooo much easier to manage. I say go for it! There's nothing like having hair that takes 5 minutes to dry, especially after being used to 5 hours.

Yes, ask him! I used to have really long hair (down past me bum!) and it, too, is very fine. Cutting it short with layers was the best thing I could've done ^^ It not only looks thicker, but it's way healthier! Though I couldn't get away with the short style that you're asking about... but you might be able to!

I put down 'keep it long and straight'.

But the caveat is:

Unless you are planning to donate it to 'Locks of Love'. Then cut it with my blessing and I'll send you the biggest hug I can!

Pictures, perhaps?

I've had short hair forever, but I'm growing it out now.

I had long hair my whole life until two years ago........menopause struck. I chopped it all off into a boy cut and love it. I never was one to fix my hair up in anything other than a ponytail so short suited me great. As mentioned before it will grow back if you cut if off. As pretty as you look I'm sure you will look great no matter what style you choose.

I think you'd look adorable with short hair.

Ooooh I did that. On a whim. And it lasted for a while. It's a real pain in the ass to maintain actually because when you cut it that short, you have to keep it that short or it will not do anything the way you want it to. So, don't expect to get out of those trims and upkeep, because you'll find yourself desiring to trim here and there more often than usual. You'll see what I mean, specially if you love the results of the first cut.

And, actually you may want to go a little before your second (first) trim because discovering which length works for you will be necessary.

What's fun is pomade. Oh I love pomade. You can get sooooooooooo creative with it. Try all the brands you can. But I preferred MUDD, though it got a little messy.

Have fun. Oh and if you don't like the results, the growing out process is a reaaaaaaaaaaaal pain in the arse. So be prepared.

short hair's cool. You should wait and audition for some movie role that involves the female lead shaving her head on screen and use your desire for short hair to propel you into the cover of every cheesy tabloid in the country.

CUT IT OFF!!! It's only hair, it'll grow back. I keep telling my sister to cut it off but she wont.

The stylists are right; you'd have no problem pulling off a short cut. I think it would look cute.

And yeah... I'm being tempted to chop off the hair because of management issues. I am sick and tired of shedding constantly and finding my long hair EVERYWHERE. Ugh.

Um.

FORNICATE management!

My hair hangs at or below my shoulder blades. The last manager who told me it wasn't professional is probably still restocking patterns at the fabric store.

It's your hair and if you want a cute short style, a long flowing style or purple and red streaks...it is job performance not looks.

shhhh...I'm not supposed to be on line now....

It grows back, you know. So chop away.

If you're anything like me, you'll love it for a week then be wishing you didn't have it cut.

Good luck!

Okay peoples, I have my appointment. Tomorrow at 2 PM, it's all coming off. I'll post a photo and you can see if I made the right choice. If I'm crying in the picture, that means I hate it.
