So, I have decided that I cannot go through another botched home hair do disaster.

[Lulumama]

In two weeks time, I shall be going to a real life , proper , qualified hairdressers for the first time in years. for a bit of a hair overhaul

not quite sure what she will do with the scorched bits , but hey ho!

so, what shall i go for?

is a centre parting terrible?

i have fine wavy hair that can go curly/frizzy in the rain/damp.

[DarrellRivers]

Buy some magazines and take some pictures of the stuff you like and then chat with her.
If she is any good she should be able to advise you well
I have recently gone for a fringe after years of avoidance, and am pleasantly suprised although quite like brushing it to one side as well

[DarrellRivers]

and condolences, having hair trouble is a nightmare, I got all in a mess with my colouring, now have found the right product and all is well in the world

[Lulumama]

i don;t really buy magazines.. is the people's friend a good one for style

would love a fringe but my hair does not lie flat at the front.

thanks though

[DarrellRivers]

And I started using a straightener as well, (do have quite straight hair) but it is great for quick easy styling, WHY DID NO-ONE TELL ME ABOUT THEM BEFORE
I also suggest a different magazine

[Lulumama]

i use my straighteners all the time, hence the scorched bits.

post DD, my hair has just not recovered

[Lulumama]

bump for hair advice !!

[Bella73]

Am watching with interest - no advice, but I also have fine wavy/curly hair and have cut my own hair since dd1 was born 2 years ago.... I have no idea if my hair can even have a "style" but am feeling ashamed since admitting on another thread about grooming that I don't manage to shower every day so need to improve my looks

So, I will be seeing what you get done and then copying shamlessly

[Lulumama]

my hair is past my shoulders, and i wear it tied up virtually every day

i don;r suit shorter hair and a long layered bob seems to be the only thing i can get

[rubyslippers]

go for a textured crop

[Lulumama]

noooooooooooooooo !! i can;t do short hair.

i just can;t

i;ll look like a tiny pea head on a mahooosive body

[SheherazadetheGoat]

i agree with ruby - toss out those straighteners bring on the hair wax

[SheherazadetheGoat]

as opposed to a pea head with scorched hair?

impossible to advise really without pictures.

[rubyslippers]

no you won't look like a pea head

you need to stop straightening or make the most of the natural curl

you have lovely ears, great eyes and you would look fab

[Lulumama]

okay, hang on, will make profile public for a bit...

[muffle]

If your hair's a bit wavy it will give shorter hair volume and so you won't be pea-head!

how about this

[rubyslippers]

niiiiiiiiiiice muffle

texture is your friend Lulu!

[Lulumama]

i like that, but she has a wee tiny face..

i will never have a hollywood stylist on hand iether with curling tongs and products !!

[Lulumama]

i am so used to straightening that i can;t get used to the idea of bounce and texture.

[rubyslippers]

i had loads cut off my hair and with wax it looks really full and curly and also good straightened ...

you need to be brave

[Lulumama]

[SheherazadetheGoat]

i like your hair in the picture where you are holding your dd and have a yellow jacket on.

textured bob it is!

gavel.

you are lovely and your children are delicious.

[SheherazadetheGoat]

oh yes what muffle posted is perfect.

[Lulumama]

thanks shezza !!



i did like that hair, but felt a bit naked and if it rained it went all curly. i have many hats.

[EffiePerine]

I use aveda anti-humectant pomade (bit pricy but lasts for ages)

no idea re cut as am in sim quandary - growing out bob but having 2nd thoughts
