Mine would like me to have stuck with long too *eyeroll*) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064756 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 07:41:05 +0000 Style Fan 2064756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a chin-length bob years ago. It was a lot of work to style. For me, the length I have now is the easiest. Shorter is not always low maintenance. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064729 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 01:22:11 +0000 Anonymous 2064729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of a slightly shorter bob. Your hair, shorter will not go up in quite the same way. You will need to work with it to see what you can do, but it will grow and you will miss your shorter length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064725 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 00:54:30 +0000 Gigi 2064725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of a longer bob (as in Bijou's photo) with your bangs staying the same as they are currently.</p> <p>I think that DH might be a little afraid of change. As others point out, most of the time your hair will look the same when it is up. I think that you will really appreciate the shorter length and how it will take less work to maintain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064720 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 00:24:28 +0000 Anonymous 2064720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing with Anchie, especially since you'd like easy styling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064678 Fri, 27 Sep 2019 21:21:53 +0000 Carla 2064678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>‘Yes’ to taking it shorter, but keeping your signature bangs and straight sides. It will be more manageable, and frankly, it will probably look exactly the same in buns and pony tails. I think there are a lot of men (and women, too) who just don’t like change or the idea of change. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064667 Fri, 27 Sep 2019 20:42:09 +0000 Katerina 2064667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you ALL for the great suggestions.</p> <p>Firecracker, that is a such a beautiful look. I am just afraid I would not manage to style and maintain it well. I will ask my hairdresser tomorrow how to do it. </p> <p>Jane, what a cool bob!</p> <p>Anchie, that is a wonderful look, it looks like a good step for me to try the feel of a shorter style.</p> <p>Btw, DH just told me he doesn’t think it is a good idea to cut it shorter.... hm. I think I will take a baby step tomorrow and shorten it a little bit to get a more lux and sleek look,, I don’t know ... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064653 Fri, 27 Sep 2019 19:55:03 +0000 Janet 2064653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like Firecracker’s suggestion too!

His wife Philippa Grayson has a lovely bob with a coloured sections, lots in the image below but may be just a little bit might look good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064623 Fri, 27 Sep 2019 18:46:33 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2064623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>What about a cut that is shorter (almost shoulder-length) near the face, then angled down to about the shoulder blades in back?</div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064622 Fri, 27 Sep 2019 18:44:48 +0000 Style Fan 2064622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of keeping your blunt bangs.&nbsp; Blunt to the shoulders would be great.<br />You have gorgeous hair.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064617 Fri, 27 Sep 2019 18:17:22 +0000 Janet 2064617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I envy your hair!

I like how her straight hair sits at this length and it still gives you the option of a ponytail and bun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064578 Fri, 27 Sep 2019 15:56:26 +0000 Murph11 2064578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the angled bob idea. Keep it just long enough to pull into a ponytail. Why not! It's hair... it'll grow back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair---please-advice#post-2064569 Fri, 27 Sep 2019 14:59:18 +0000 Katerina 2064569@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dear Fabbers,</p> <p>I have a hair appointment tomorrow for a cut. I have been thinking about changing my hair slightly for quite some time, but I have not had the courage... <br /> I have a dark brown very straight hair and I wear a full straight fringe. This part I want to keep.<br /> My hair is long, it goes to half of my back and it is cut very straight across my back. I have had a version of this style for years.<br /> Now, I wear my hair down very seldom. Usually, I wear it in a messy bun or a proper bun or a ponytail. I would like a cut which would look nice and still quite easy to style when the hair is down.<br /> I am thinking about shortening my hair to a collar bone angled bob. Or just shortening it a little - to shoulder length and wear it that way. Either way, I would like to keep enough length to be able to wear it in a ponytail (even a short one). </p> <p>I would be grateful for your thoughts.</p> <p>      </p>
