I have never worn glasses as a fashionable accessory, they were always bought inexpensively as a back up to my contacts, just to have on hand in case I needed them. I am excited to invest in a good pair for everyday wearing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-haircut-or-glasses-in-what-order#post-874541 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:49:10 +0000 Angie 874541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How exciting :)</p> <p>Either way. Makes no difference. Perhaps do the haircut first. Fast gratification. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-haircut-or-glasses-in-what-order#post-874536 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:47:25 +0000 Astrid 874536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You should pick glasses that work with your face shape and coloring. If you won't dye your hair and just get a new cut you can definitely get new glasses before getting a cut. I'd just make an appointment for the hair and then start searching for glasses, it might be a while before you find the right pair anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-haircut-or-glasses-in-what-order#post-874532 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:46:11 +0000 Anonymous 874532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just did glasses first with haircut to come. But I'm flexible with my hair and really was more focused on changing it up with my frames. But that was just a matter of priority for me, not because I felt it was "the way" to go about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-haircut-or-glasses-in-what-order#post-874524 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:40:55 +0000 Raisin 874524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm thinking haircut first....I think it will affect your look more overall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-haircut-or-glasses-in-what-order#post-874521 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:37:21 +0000 Jules 874521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My instinct would be hair cut first, then glasses - if only because you are stuck with that haircut to some extent, whereas you can quickly try on a huge variety of glasses styles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-haircut-or-glasses-in-what-order#post-874516 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:35:12 +0000 Anonymous 874516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would say glasses first, and then hair. Hair is more changeable, and you probably will have the glasses for longer than a particular hairstyle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-haircut-or-glasses-in-what-order#post-874500 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:21:31 +0000 Claudia 874500@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I have spent the last few years growing out a decades-worn pixie. During this time I have played around with simple cuts at varying lengths, more for the economy than looks or style. </p> <p>I have also been a long time contact wearer but went to wearing an old set of eyeglasses when my contacts ran out, also for the sake of economy.</p> <p>Now I am looking to both get a smart, current haircut style, and a modern, stylish pair of new glasses.</p> <p>Which should I do first? Does it really matter? Do I pick glasses around just my face shape without thought to how my hair will be, or get the haircut then choose the frames?</p> <p>For more information, I don't have a specific haircut in mind, I will trust the stylist to work with my face, tolerance for the cut's styling maintenance, and my natural hair.</p> <p>If any members have experience or thoughts on this, feel free to chime in. </p>
