Hope you are enjoying the beach - its gray here today! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polished-or-rate-hair#post-604750 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:21:11 +0000 rachylou 604750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mmm... I'll be a lone nay-sayer and go for flat-ironed. You have a kinda haute preppy thing going on, and I think you should run all the way with it - which calls for coltish, sleek hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polished-or-rate-hair#post-604744 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:16:26 +0000 Suz 604744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit!

It was my parents 50th wedding anniversary with PHOTOS!<br /> I washed it a couple of times and then flat ironed and applied lots of wax. It is a different, not so clean and bouncy feel, but totally worth it. You just have to go with the salty, dirty feel.<br /> Paul MItchell spray wax is good or if you have a Visible Changes, their brand is a little lighter.<br /> But either way you fix you hair, you look awesome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polished-or-rate-hair#post-604519 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 05:05:17 +0000 ManidipaM 604519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've sorted out your hair by now, but I just wanted to say how lovely you look in that outfit. What a beautiful top and necklace! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polished-or-rate-hair#post-604470 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 02:52:02 +0000 Anonymous 604470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute beach outfit and I agree with curly beachy hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polished-or-rate-hair#post-604468 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 02:49:44 +0000 christy 604468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah - thanks! And yes, these are the loft shorts.

Aida - my current cut will work for curly or straight. Its a bit of an angled bob that's shorter in the back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polished-or-rate-hair#post-604398 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 01:16:37 +0000 Anonymous 604398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Christy, that is a GORgeous top, necklace and shorts outfit! Perfect for the family photo shoot! I'm trying to recall how you do your hair *beachy* I think I've seen it curled, but controlled, which might be really nice. I wouldn't fight with it too much, because it could look unnatural if there's a breeze and your hair doesn't move, lol! But you want people years later to know it's you when they look at the picture, too! You have such impeccable taste, I'm sure it will be fine whatever you decide. Did I mention how beautiful your top is? *sigh* Enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polished-or-rate-hair#post-604395 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 01:12:54 +0000 kellygirl 604395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see your point about flat ironing it for more polish although I like the visual of RATE hair considering the setting. I vote for beachy hair </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polished-or-rate-hair#post-604392 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 01:10:20 +0000 Aida 604392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how your hair looks when curly, is your current cut conducive to wearing it that way? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polished-or-rate-hair#post-604389 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 01:07:24 +0000 christy 604389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all! I need your help deciding what to do with my unruly hair. We are getting family pictures done tonight at the beach. This is what I'm wearing - funnily enough this is what I came up with before seeing Angie's post on how to wear Bermuda length shorts! The question is what do I do with my hair? I normally flat iron it and my overall look definitely runs more towards polished than RATE (rough around the edges). But since we are on the beach, should I go with a more casual beachy hair? To be clear here in the picture it is not done at all - just straight from a morning at the beach. And no make up - yikes! Since this top is pretty flowy and waist surrendering I'm leaning towards flat ironing it to keep the overall look more polished. Thoughts? </p>
