PS Deborah, if this makes sense, it doesn't seem like a 'drastic' change to me since the layers on top are so long. Isn't it nice to know you have options for different lengths?

Truly beautiful!

Kary, yes I do know what you mean. It's really a shorter version of what I had. I do feel feminine but I also feel very conscious that my brows really need to be maintained better and make up is necessary. If my face is colourless (which it is naturally) it all looks a bit blah.

You look fantastic.....a gorgeous cut that suits you to a T

Gorgeous! Really and truly gorgeous. And I think it suits your style even better. And your eyes pop out and they are an amazing shade of blue. Walk proud. (In my experience kids don't normally react well to their moms making changes until it is the new normal.)

Killer

I love it, Debs. xo

Oh i was nervous to read your thoughts Angie!! Thank you. Your assessment means a lot to me, as do the thoughts of the other fabbers, so I feel I now the have the seal of approval lol.

This a fantastic cut – you look amazing and I loved seeing the back of the style. I wonder if many ladies keep two sets of earrings - longer and shorter to allow for hair style changes... I do.

Debs, the style frames your face beautifully, and brings out your icy blue eyes - shorter hair does that I've found. It's still polished and sleek, which is how you like to wear your hair. Colour is fab too. Of course, I love it. How can I not. xo

Gracie thank you:)

Angie sending you a hug:) I have wanted to do this for probably the last 12 months but I have been a big chicken My intention is to intensify the blonde a little more in parts and grow the 'fringe' a little longer

Oh Deborah-I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings-
But I am NOT
Super sleek and fresh and Fabtabulous!

Lyn you are so naughty! But funny. Thank you

Smashing! I love it!

Truly beautiful! It makes your blue eyes more noticeable and also makes you look young! I've been contemplating a similar cut for several months, and you may have given me the courage to proceed.

Fantastic! I liked your old hairstyle but I love this. It suits you so well! You look beautiful.

I think it looks amazing!

It's beautiful, soft, and feminine. Not at all masculine. I am a big chicken about going short and looking masculine so I understand that fear. How fun it will be to wear all those earrings!

So gorgeous and perfect on you!

Oh, Deborah, you look just beautiful!
Really it's not a tremendously drastic change, but it looks even more trendy and edgy and perfect with your style.
It's always hard to make a change, but I don't think you'll regret taking the plunge. This is a terrific style for you. Big thumbs up from me!

Oooh!! I am late to this thread but so excited to see how beautiful you look! It's a really lovely variation of what you already had. Yet feels like a real change. You have done it at just the right time of year for you, too. Shorter always feels fab in summer to me. Love the earrings as well.

Ahh! Love it! This is the cut I was hoping for (and am still hoping to grow mine into!)

Cant' wait to see your wiws with this cut. Maybe you want to introduce a new pop color in your shoes and bags now too? We've seen the cobalt, what else could you do? It's summer there, do you wear tan, taupe, whites with metals and color pops on the feet? Your earrings will be key now too. What will you go for?

Amy I bet yours is getting to a really good stage by now. you got your money's worth, eh?

Amy I think yours is looking great. How good would it be if were all like twist and pull barbie that could grow and shorten our hair at will?:)

Kary, I am really set in my colour palette of black, grey, white and blues. I have bought a pair of taupe bootie sandals but Im afraid I am a neutrals girl:) Earring will be fun. Ofcourse drops will work but also those that drop but are shorter and studs etc.

Really love it! I was a bit worried about you when it took so long to post picks. I bet you'll end up loving it after the first couple WIWs. I think the shorter cut will be fantastic with your ustructured style.

Carter, there is a time difference and I wanted to wash and style it myself before I showed you all

Deborah, I have jumped to the end to reply without reading anyones comments. I love it, Love It, LOVE IT!!! You look refreshed, we see more of your face (and thats a good thing) and you get to wear fabber earrings. Win, win.

Wonderful!! Great start to the new year.

I love it, you look amazing!

It's fantastic. I love it. It suits you so well, and I also think it suits your style.
