I do have some layers, but not too many, aside from the front fringe, so I think it would work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-advice-wanted#post-1425264 Thu, 15 Jan 2015 20:43:17 +0000 rachylou 1425264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Layers are essential for pin curls? Oh, that to me is a question for the hair stylist. I can't imagine how that works - how you grab sections to pin up.</p> <p>Today is hair day. I'm learning questions I never even knew to ask. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-advice-wanted#post-1425198 Thu, 15 Jan 2015 19:08:15 +0000 Meredith 1425198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, interesting. I feel like they would need to be longish layers, especially around your face so you have enough to sweep back and under. What about looking at other images from the 40s or someone like Dita Von Teese to see what length their hair is when down? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-advice-wanted#post-1425157 Thu, 15 Jan 2015 18:25:15 +0000 trekkiegirl 1425157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From what I've read, layers are essential for pin curls. Anyone have personal experience?</p> <p>Good point about the updo's though, would probably have to stay a bit below shoulder length.</p> <p>I'm not sure exactly why, but I can't stand Kate Moss... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-advice-wanted#post-1425146 Thu, 15 Jan 2015 18:17:20 +0000 harmonica 1425146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think #8 is too short for an updo like #4. I think you'll need the length of #10 or slightly longer. How about looking at Kate Moss for some inspiration? She's not so into updoes, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-advice-wanted#post-1425122 Thu, 15 Jan 2015 17:59:11 +0000 Meredith 1425122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun! I think it will be hard to accomplish all three goals. If you add the layers needed for the rocker look you're going to have a hard time doing the pin curls without using a lot of product. I think you'll still need to keep it below shoulder length for updoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-advice-wanted#post-1425121 Thu, 15 Jan 2015 17:58:22 +0000 abc 1425121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From what I have seen on other threads, your hair is a main accessory, so you are right in considering everything you'd want to do with it before cutting any length off.</p> <p>I would say no shorter than pic 8 or 9. &nbsp;That still gives you length to play around with but it's not as much as you have now (pic 1-2).</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haircut-advice-wanted#post-1425110 Thu, 15 Jan 2015 17:46:36 +0000 trekkiegirl 1425110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi there! My hair has been super long for a few years now (pics 1-2) and I'm pretty certain I'm ready to cut it.</p> <p>I'd like it to be long enough that I can still do fun updos (3-5), but short enough to do authentic looking pin curls (6-7). I also want to be able to have my rocker chick vibe sometimes 8-10).</p> <p>Am I asking too much? How short would be too short do you think? </p>
