My hair is wayyyyy overdue for a cut and a color and I finally managed to remember to schedule an appointment for tonight. I am tired of my low maintenance layers + bangs hair. So far I have (slightly naively) tried to minimize product use and daily styling. Now, I don't mind getting a cut that will require spending a little time on my hair every morning.

For over a year I've been wanting something newer, fresher and edgier. My hair is coarse, thick and while not extremely frizzy definitely frizz-prone. My face is more oval than round tending to be rounder when I gain weight. My profile picture will give you an exact idea of my hair as of one week ago.

How short can I go without approaching pixie territory (that might be the next step in my hair journey :-))?

What would you suggest? Any pictures or suggestions of styles are greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
