WOW ladies, thank you!! I'm thrilled you all like the cut so much, this makes my day! Funny story: I ran into one of my close girlfriends yesterday at dinner; we were leaving, they were just getting there, so it was a quick hi-bye. 5 minutes later, she sent me a text saying that she didn't even realize I'd gotten my hair cut until just then because "it looks so right on you" I suppose I should've gone back to the bob sooner, eh?

Ramya, I'm flattered (and will pass the sentiment to the stylist, I'm sure she'll love to hear it)! Hope the cut works just as well for you!

Zap, you can't wear your hair short any more?

Astrid, I was feeling the same way the last month or so and I think it was just that the cut needed freshening up; sometimes with longer hair we forget how much even a little refresher can improve the look. I was actually debating between this type of cut or leaving it long but with really dramatic layer heights (shorter on top, long on bottom), and ultimately decided I was ready to go back to short hair since it's been a while. I hope you find something that makes you feel better about your hair soon, it's so pretty!

Abie, she was a curly girl's dream! After confirming that I wear my hair curly (yay for asking that up front!) she did the process I most prefer: wash, do basic cut while wet, cut in more detailed layers while half-dry, diffuse the rest of the way dry, cut in fine details and shaggy bits and final shaping etc. with the hair DRY, then LASTLY got in there with the product and curling iron. Definitely a keeper!

Aida, this cut looks SO FUN! It is an awesome, awesome, awesome cut for you!!

Really, really, really gorgeous!! It looks so good with your beautiful face! Stunning.

There must be something in the air, because I just got my hair chopped too :). Not as dramatic as yours, but quite a bit cut off. My hairdresser takes the same approach you mention, and she always does a great job with my curly hair.

OMG! I love it. You look AMAZING with your bob!

Ooh la la- You look gorgeous!
I LOVE your new do!

aida,
the hair the hair the hair!! it looks thick and luxurious and amazing and your eyes stand out so much.

Thank you thank you

Wow! LOVE it Aida! What a perfect cut on you.

Oh.My.God. - I love this on you!!!!! I've been fairly absent on the forum lately, but had to log in quickly just to say how much I adore this cut. It's so sassy and fun and such a perfect length for your curls. Will you PM me with the details of your stylist? I'm looking for someone new. Is she up your way or down my way?

LOVE!!!!!

OMG, Aida, your hair looks fantastic. Such a stunning cut. So perfect on you!

Thanks Kim, Christy, and MTB!

Christy,she is more up my way than down your way (Alderwood) but you will LOVE her. PMing you her info!

Aida, your new hair is FANTASTIC!!! Wow. I'm so glad I dropped in and saw your update. Wow. The angle is stunning and the new shorter length brings so much fun and spunk and bounce (not that you didn't have these qualities before).

Have fun with your new style

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your new haircut! Amazing on you.

Great cut - it really suits you!
