This is amazeballs! Totally. This looks wonderful now AND it is going to grow into the cut you want. I speak as one who has (a) sort of similar kind of Asian hair that you and Una have; and (b) a razored cut. Una is exactly right! (Una, I too cut my hair when I turned 40!). I find that all hair, but especially long hair, needs a few days to settle down into the cut. I won't be surprised if you really love the cut in a few days.
LOVE it!! As someone who adores feathered ends but can't actually sport them, I have serious feathered end envy. I have to say this stylist did a brilliant BRILLIANT job on yours. Our hair wax should be super fun to play with with this new 'do. And it will certainly grow into the cut you were picturing (based off all your hair pins on Pinterest), probably by two weeks. LOVE Now get some emerald dip-dyed ends so I can enjoy those, too ^^
I'm glad the response has been so positive! I agree with the comments about the hair needing time to recover - it is in as much shock as I am, probably. Looking forward to seeing how it settles in. Particularly looking forward to it growing out, but that is more because at this length it reminds me of my mom.
I loved the last one, and this one is so much better. Very very you. I'm always shocked when I get a new haircut too. But after a couple of days and a good cry over all the hair I lost, then I love it. Happens almost every time for me.
Love the hair, more that the previous one! It does take time to adjust to having shorter hair.
As for the amount of hair which came off - I have a pixie cut and you should see the amount of hair my stylist sweeps out after my job...unbelievable!
Hooray for the zipper success story!
Your hair looks FANTASTIC! AMAZING! I also love your outfit. And your stylist sounds like a keeper. I think you are just in shock, I can't imagine you won't be loving this very soon.
Joining the gushing! I love it. It frames your face beautifully. And it has movement, which your long hair, while beautiful, didn't. It's like adding texture to an outfit. It takes things up a notch.
Oh, and another fabulous cut today, among Una's:-)). It so worth comming here to see such beautiful ladies! The new cut suit you so well Rae, but I can totally relate to your panic. I ALWAYS panic at the hairdresser:-(( NO MATTER WHAT.
Love your outfit today, & glad boots are OK.
You found a cool, clever hairdresser who gave you a VERY COOL cut! Stick with her, Rae! This looks great, and she even sounds like she knows exactly what you're after.
Seconding all comments on letting long hair alone for a week to get adjusted to its new length and weight. It's going to suddenly do things it never did before.
I logged on tonight (I've been traveling the last 2 days) just to see if you had posted a pic of your new haircut - and Rae, this is even more FAB than I ever imagined! I LOVE it - and I think you will love it too, once you get used to it. Its PERFECT!
Just popped in to say AWESOME! I think this cut will turn out a lot more like what you have in mind.
I totally empathize with you, BTW. I was in a bit of a shock after I had my hair chopped recently, and then after I washed it and played with it I felt better.
OMG Rae! Hadn't seen this before now! You look SUPER good with this haircut. Much better than the previous one. So much style and personality. It's always a shock to go from long to short, but believe me, this is so cool, much cooler than long hair!
Sorry about your boots... what a bad timing too.
Looking forward for more pics from you in your dazzling do.
