Hair now is long with growing out layers round the front,dyed dark brown every 4 weeks due to the greynessand has some split ends.It hasnt been cut in ages as i cant decide what it is i want(have started threads before).I have booked the appointment to give myself a kick in the right direction.

And how much time have you got in the morning to style etc.

And what is your face shape?

Face shape is oval i think.
I have no time to style it and couldnt if i tried anyway.

I swing between keeping it long and having the layers recut and tidied or having a long inverted bob of some sort.

Go for a bob - I had long dark hair with layers for years and got it cut about a year ago into a graduated bob (I'd thought about it for atleast a year) - tis dead easy to maintain (rough dry, then a few mins drying with a brush, smooth on some serum and off you go) super easy to dye and looks a bit funky too!

Go on - do it

hmm still not 100% sure though ?
What if i hate it and regret having the length cut?
I like the look of a bob longer at the front bit i still want it long enough to scrape back.

You know when you are waiting to find a style that you just have to have,its kinda like that.

It'll grow back quickly enough if you don't like it.

Do you wear your hair up at the moment?

Why do you need to put it up? You can always clip it to the side or tuck it behind your ears?

Hi Furball
Thanks for the link although sadly my haircut is going to deplete funds this month.

I have got in the habit of tying my hair back in a ponytail in the house since having the dd's as they used to grab my hair.I dont tye it up when im out as my ears stick out a bit.

tis tricky as a) you probably want to keep your length as not to shock yourself and b) I also feel you want something abit different and not like the girl next door?

Furball · 31/10/2008 21:26

Whatever you do you MUST go with a STYLE planned... do not just let hairdresser wing it, or Very Bad Things can happen

I had my shoulder length hair all cut off into a very short pixie style during the summer. I loved it for the first month, but now I hate, hate, hate it

I reckon it will take another 6-9 months to grow it into a chin length bob, which is what I should have done in the first place.

So whatever you do, don't go too short.
