It does require regular cuts every 4 weeks, for sure. I would love if my stylist offered free touch ups between! &nbsp;My only beef is the long, sideswept bangs really get to me as they approach needing a cut. My hair is thick and they get quite "heavy" and fall in my eyes.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice/page/2#post-1420314 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 15:20:27 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1420314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad it worked out Deb and you're pleased - can hardly wait to see it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice/page/2#post-1420311 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 15:10:03 +0000 viva 1420311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sure it will be wonderful - can't wait to see it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice/page/2#post-1420310 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 15:01:27 +0000 amiable 1420310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for a great haircut! &nbsp;Look forward to seeing it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice/page/2#post-1420296 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 14:47:57 +0000 crutcher 1420296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just read through this...you will look ah..maz..ing with the new restyled look...I can't wait to see your finished product... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice/page/2#post-1420287 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 14:41:02 +0000 lyn67 1420287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>can't wait to see, but am sure will suit you well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice/page/2#post-1420196 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 10:46:46 +0000 carolbee 1420196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to the party, but love the inspiration pic, can't wait to see what it looks like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1420146 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 06:02:48 +0000 anne 1420146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking forward to seeing it Deb.

Stay cool </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1420122 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 04:32:53 +0000 Deborah 1420122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the advice ladies. &nbsp;The breakage problem is actually sorted. &nbsp;The top layer is growing nicely and is technically new hair and the rest of my hair is in great condition. &nbsp;Despite the abuse, I really do look after it:) &nbsp;So that isn't an issue.</p> <p>I had a good chat with my hairdresser this morning and we did go ahead with the Gennifer Goodwin style cut. &nbsp;I hae a lot of hair so the layering seems to have worked well. &nbsp;It also did as I suspected and there is now a nice graduation of lengths and the short top length look intentional. &nbsp;From the front it is a little shorter but looks quite similar. &nbsp;From the side and the back it just looks cleaner and sharper, and the overal shape of the cut looks great.</p> <p><b>Una, Karymk &amp; Caro,&nbsp;</b>regular maintenance is a challenge and my hair grows very fast. For example&nbsp;I had my last cut 4 weeks ago and it had gotten so long,<b> BUT&nbsp;</b>my stylist's salon is only 10 mins from home (just near Master 11's school) so its easy to pop in for a tidy up in between full cuts and colours. &nbsp;She always fits me in and if it's just a neaten up they dont&nbsp;charge me :)&nbsp;</p> <p>I did try to take photos when I got home but we are having a heat wave today and I am all shiny and pink lol. &nbsp; I will attempt an outfit photo before work tomorrow and share the new do then.</p> <p>Thanks again, you really helped me process what I need to do and what I wanted to do.<br />xxx</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419910 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 21:23:20 +0000 Caro in Oz 1419910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing with karymk &amp; Una. If it were me I'd be wanting to sort out the breakage problem first. I had a cut that was shorter around my ears last year &amp; it looked great for the first 2 weeks but after that it became difficult to work with, so I'm back with a cut that looks good for 5 weeks :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419885 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 20:53:48 +0000 Suz 1419885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't wait to see how this turned out, Deb!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419736 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 16:46:28 +0000 karymk 1419736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, &nbsp;I hope you kept your appointment because no matter what, it's always good to keep short hair looking well groomed. &nbsp;</p> <p>I love that pic of Ginnifer Goodwin. &nbsp;Your face is so pretty I don't think you have to worry about the&nbsp;&nbsp;length of short hair you go with. &nbsp;I think if you keep the front with those long bangs you will enjoy the movement and "length" and still feel feminine. &nbsp;Go as short as you dare in the back. &nbsp;It's hot there, no?</p> <p>As for the color, sorry about the breakage! Over processing? Do you iron your hair daily? &nbsp;If you are going to have hair that short, you need to at least have HAIR, so maybe now is the time to focus on the condition of your hair and then get to a style change later on. &nbsp;What do you think? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419726 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 16:31:52 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1419726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great hairstyle Deborah and I can see this working really well for you. It's still got that asymmetrical shape that shows off your pretty face and beautiful eyes. </p> <p>I also like the idea of having some darker splices in your hair to change up the look a bit.</p> <p>Looking forward to seeing the end result </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419696 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 15:23:20 +0000 gradfashionista 1419696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the cut you posted will look lovely on you. Have you ever tried a virtual cut? There are a few sites online--perhaps your hairdresser has one, too--where you can upload a photo of yourself and try out different cuts before you decide to undergo a major chop.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419693 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 15:18:25 +0000 catgirl 1419693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I had supershort hair, my issue (aside from the fact that I don't have the face for it like you do) was that any growth at all completely changed the cut for the worse.&nbsp; I think some hair and hairstyles do a better job of handling grow-out well.&nbsp; I think chemical damage makes it harder (says the person who bleached her hair to dye it blue - sigh).</p> <p>If your stylist is trustworthy, as I assume s/he is, I would pour your heart out and ask advice. :)&nbsp; Ginnifer Goodwin's hair looks like it takes a ton of maintenance to look like it just fell into place - and I speak from cold hard experience! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419689 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 15:14:34 +0000 Angie 1419689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Got it, Debs. I like the idea of the darker splices.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419687 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 15:10:23 +0000 Anonymous 1419687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the shorter cut will look beautiful on you. When I think of your style though, I think of more sharply angled hair and wonder if this style Is too rounded. You ought to try it and see. It would be easy to put I more angles later. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419678 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 14:43:42 +0000 Anonymous 1419678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*Ginnifer* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419675 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 14:30:37 +0000 Anonymous 1419675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like Gennifer Goodwin's hair a lot - a nice, modern cut. It's so hard to know what will work, isn't it? &nbsp;Do you have a lot of hair? Is it fine? &nbsp;You have the face to carry off a shorter cut - and you might find adding in those layers gives you the bit of oomph you are looking for. It'll get rid of the damaged ends too....</p> <p>As for colour, I'm with you here in being unsure. I'm currently wrestling with this and considering going back to a warmer brown/blonde combo. &nbsp;I think with your blue eyes and fair skin you have a lot of options available to you. &nbsp;Something a little darker or less damaging than platinum would be a fun change. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-cut-advice#post-1419605 Tue, 06 Jan 2015 12:05:51 +0000 Lucy 1419605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it!

They would add texture and interest. </p>
