Right, Need HONEST opinions on whether to go from long to short hair. Pics on profile

[MoodyDidIt]

for a VERY limited time only as do not want to out self in rl

i have shoulder length curly hair at the moment but tbh its in quite shit condition despite my best efforts :( and am sick of it

i have been growing it for over 2 years from a short crop with long layers at the front, which was dead easy to maintain and took seconds to style

i am seriously thinking of going back to that style and need your opinions on what looks best. please look at my pics and tell me, HONESTLY, what you think, i will not be offended, promise

[HeartShapedSaw]

Short

[MoodyDidIt]

oh my god MN have put this in discussions of the day



and thanks for all the responses, and am not offended by any of them, they have all been really helpful x

[simontowel]

You look amazing with short hair - it really suits you!

[Lancelottie]

Good grief woman, you're stunning.

Cut it all off and put a bag on your head immediately. Please.

[practicality]

Short but a groovier hairstyle.

Google wip hairport pixie. Really good ideas there.

[badtasteflump]

Sorry to be annoying but I prefer it longer - it does still suit you short, but I think it looked a little bit severe and the dark colour doesn't suit you as much as the lighter red shade - which I think makes you look much younger and lights up your face. I would just have a really good trim and pile on the leave in conditioner TBH

[UterusUterusGhali]

Deffo short. No question.

You are stunning :)

[countrykitten]

Gosh you are beautiful! Def short as you have such lovely features - colour could be a little lighter (like the red) and the style a bit looser possibly bit def go short it's lovely!

[MoodyDidIt]

awww how lovely

actually got a tear in my eye at the compliments . am pg though so thats my excuse

have booked hair appt for sat, so if i am feeling brave i will go for the full chop..... maybe

[WillSingForCake]

Definitely short. And I've surprised myself because I normally think everyone looks better with longer hair, but as soon as I saw your pics I preferred the shorter style. Though frankly you're so gorgeous you could shave it off & still look pretty damn good!

[IDismyname]

Keep it short. It make you look younger.

[LulaPalooza]

Love the short hair but if you want to keep longer hair have you considered a Brazilian blow dry?

[Fallenangle]

Short, it really suits you. The wedding style makes you look to be an ultra efficient, in control type of person. If you want to appear more free and easy go for a funkier style.

[pocketandsweet]

100% short

[PrinceRogersNelson]

Short!

I have uber short hair and it is great. I love it.

You look great with shirt hair. You're very pretty.

[ZZZenAgain]

you look fragile and feminine with the shorter hair in a nice way. It suits you. Actually you look like two completely different people with the different haircuts.

How about leaving it longer but having a more smooth shape and a clearer lin?. Some version of a longish bob as a base and whatever interesting twist on that you might like. I don't think it is the length so much as the type of style that suits you a bit better in the crop.

Love your wedding photos btw

[littlepeas]

Wedding pics is cheating a bit, because everyone looks completely amazing on their wedding day and pics taken in kfc are never going to live up to wedding pics! That said, I think you suit both, so I would go for the condition and styling ease of the crop.

[Mumofjz]

I love it short, maybe a bit more "undone" tho!

And i would say the long is nice too, but don't like the colour, i have curly hair and find red always makes the curls look dried out and frizzy, where as a darker colour or more of a copper rather than red!!!!

[goodygumdrops]

I like short too!

[DrunkenDaisy]

i prefer the first pic with your child.

[Slainte]

The crop really suits you.

[MrsPennyapple]

Short, definitely!

I recently came to the same decision, after growing my hair for about three years. I've hated it for the last year or so but kept it long, thinking I could do more with it - but never did. I made the decision to cut it very short again, and I love it again. I feel better about my appearance generally, clothes that I thought didn't suit me actually do again, and - the best part - I can wash, dry and style it inside ten minutes. It makes me wonder why I persevered with my long, rubbish looking hair, for so long. (Your longer hair is not rubbish-looking btw, I just think short looks much nicer.)

[FingersCrossedLegsNot]

Short without a doubt, is that you in the pic with the short hair? If so you look absolutely stunning with it!

[OneMoreGo]

I actually prefer it long.

[Thumbwitch]

You do look lovely in your wedding photos (your scrabbling hasn't worked yet! ) but I agree as well that the flattened look isn't necessarily the best way of wearing that cut - a bit more body to it, maybe?

Short hair does suit you and give you a more distinctive appearance than the cut you have at the moment though. :)
