Your hair is gorgeous. You can make long curly hair your signature style. Andie McDowell is a great inspiration, isn't she always so beautiful? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again/page/2#post-504387 Sun, 08 Jan 2012 13:56:50 +0000 Kristen 504387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my gosh, I am really liking it long on you! I didn't realize you had been growing it out. Really pretty and flattering on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-504373 Sun, 08 Jan 2012 12:05:02 +0000 Fruitful 504373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your current hair Tarzy, and everything Jean said was just wonderful. Pretty much everything she said I feel strongly about, as a fellow curly.</p> <p>I reiterate, curly hair doesn't generally have the same style pay-off in a short bob or pixie cut that straight hair can. </p> <p>Well, it can be done but you'd need someone very knowledgeable and talented with curly hair to achieve something special and let's face it, finding them would be a whole journey in itself.</p> <p>You can do a lot with different partings, updos with pins etc, to make curly hair look stylish. I agree that your clothing style contrasts nicely with the romance of curly hair. And you look amazing with a side part.</p> <p>Looking sharp with curls is also achieved by balancing the soft look of the hair with attention to other details, i.e. having immaculate brows etc which you are already doing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-504299 Sun, 08 Jan 2012 03:10:29 +0000 Debora 504299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm loving this longer, softer look on you, Tara.

Is it unanimous :)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-504004 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 20:48:55 +0000 catgirl 504004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Long - your current length is lovely on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503991 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 20:23:00 +0000 Astrid 503991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your curls - I vote for longer too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503978 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 20:02:20 +0000 RoseandJoan 503978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for longer, your current colour is fab too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503975 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 19:56:55 +0000 Patty 503975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Long-a la Deborah Winger </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503878 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 18:14:18 +0000 Mochi 503878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will chime in also and say I love your hair the way it is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503828 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 17:00:11 +0000 Angie 503828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for longer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503753 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 16:03:58 +0000 Anonymous 503753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for longer as well. It's amazing what an inch or so can do to the *flavor* (for lack of a better word) of your style--anyone's style. I'm in that weird grown-out bob stage and I feel like a chin-length bob has either a *cute* or *chic* element to it. A bit longer and it somehow starts to feel androgynous (on me) and then finally when long enough, with curls, it can look very feminine and romantic--well that's before I went grey. Now I might just look homeless if I let it get too long! </p> <p>Anyway, I don't know if I made any sense at all. I just wanted to say that I like the *flavor* that your length now gives to your style, and if you want to let it keep growing you could experiment to see if longer would be even better--IDK. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503720 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 15:42:58 +0000 Isabel 503720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it a little longer now also. Your hair really is beautiful and you seem to know how to style it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503717 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 15:41:08 +0000 Jem 503717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think your hair is really pretty now, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503662 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 15:07:54 +0000 Queen Mum 503662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>another vote to keep it longer. It frames your face better and looks more "relaxed" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503574 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 11:30:05 +0000 Scarlet 503574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think Andy McDowell is a great inspiration for you. I really like your hair a bit longer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503520 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 06:27:37 +0000 Lantana 503520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely looks better longer, IMO, it frames your face better than the bob which broadens you across the jaw line. If you can keep it longer but not thicker it would give you more options for creating different looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503514 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 06:18:09 +0000 AJ 503514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My curly locks play nicer when they are long or super short. </p> <p>I think it looks beautiful the way you have it now.</p> <p>WWAMD?

I love #4, your hair today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503470 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 04:36:58 +0000 chewyspaghetti 503470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for keeping it longer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503462 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 04:10:48 +0000 Vix 503462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Tarzy --</p> <p>I think your current cut (#4) is very pretty with your face shape and features!</p> <p>Looks like you have some graduated layers, yes? </p> <p>If so, I'd keep (experimenting with length if desired). Now that my hair is back to ~ shoulder length, I think it looks best when the front pieces fall more or less between mouth and jaw to do that face-framing thing...otherwise I feel I have too much bulk. </p> <p>[Mileage may vary etc!]</p> <p>As a coarse/thick wavy-hair, I found I liked my short cut best when the front-most pieces were cheekbone length with the remainder graduating in length to (my square!) jaw. Might be something to discuss with your stylist if you end up talking about going shorter.</p> <p>Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503430 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 03:14:40 +0000 Transcona Shannon 503430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As someone with poker straight hair, I am sooooooo jealous of your beautiful curls. I think your hair is beautiful and FWIW, i say leave it longer to show its true gorgeousness! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503414 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 03:01:17 +0000 DeclawedJaguar 503414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your current hair looks great! I have thick wavy hair and found a short bob very hard to maintain - lots of frizz, too much volume where there shouldn't be, etc. I vote for keeping your hair long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503389 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 02:28:11 +0000 Lisalou 503389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As a fellow curly, I say leave it longer, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503386 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 02:27:05 +0000 Mo 503386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Jean and Taylor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503382 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 02:23:33 +0000 taylor 503382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it longer, as you are wearing it now :)<br /> Jean makes some good points! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503378 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 02:19:46 +0000 greenglove 503378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tarzy- thank you so much. </p> <p>I think that curly hair like yours looks better longer. The length gives you options to wear it in ways that look "stylish".<br /> Curly hair is hard to style, it does not do the kind of things that choppy, short hair can do in terms of heightening style IMO<br /> Which is why I think length makes a more dramatic statement and why I keep mine longer.<br /> I also think that your style of dress would be a cool contrast to the romance of the curls. A kind of geometry with your modern, urban look against the organic quality of the curl.<br /> Arty talk, sorry<br /> You could wear it up in interesting ways. I would grow it out. I think short curly hair is much more conservative and requires lots of maintenance.<br /> By the way- you have gorgeous hair and look like Andie McDowell. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503368 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 02:07:16 +0000 Amy 503368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If I had beautiful curly hair like yours, I'd leave it longer. *so jealous* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503355 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 01:59:08 +0000 Suz 503355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no advice because I'm not too knowledgeable about wavy hair, but I just want to say you look great!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-hair-on-me-again#post-503318 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 01:28:05 +0000 Victoria 503318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that A Line bob would be wondeful on you! I think it would be very stylish and modern(and easy to take care of). With your hair texture I think its better choice than your current cut which seem a little "bulky"..? I think long piece in the front would be more flattering for your face shape as well. I hope that I'm not offending you by making recommendation as I'm "I don't beat around the bush" kind of person...<br /> P.S. I have very wavy hair myself and that's the style I had before cutting my hair into pixie. </p>
