Excuse the crap picture of my miserable face, I loath having my photo taken but needs must! There is one of my hair up for face shape and one down.

I need to do something with my mop, I have booked a hairdresser but if I don't ask you lot first I'll go and get an inverted bob then grow it straight out because I don't like it much.

Things to consider;

The expanse of forehead that I have
I don't have oodles of time to 'fix' it every morning
It's thick, way thicker than it looks, thick enough to make hairdressers charge me extra Hmm

So, what do you suggest I go for? Currently it gets slung up in a messy bun with a few strands down my face to hide mount forehead but that's getting old now.

Wow.....it looks great. Knew a full fringe would suit you. I have always had one and love it. Smile

Aww Titsalina! You look beautiful!

Right. That's me. Next haircut, fringe and some layers, a la Squoosh's pic.

You look lovely - the fringe is great. I only read this blog post on blow-drying fringes the other day. I watched the video and it made me want to get one!!

(the method here is The Way, IMHO. Decent normal brush does a reasonable job BTW. Don't think product is a must either, TBH)

They look completely different on you with the fringe IMO

No new glasses yet. I'm working on that for my next to-do. Smile

Ace! And have you got new glasses too or do they just look more glam with the fringe? You look fab Smile

Love the fringe! Proper fringe envy going on here (they always look awful on me!)
You look fringe-fab :)

It's always been this colour Smile I won't change that, I like the cut though, it really pleased which almost ever happens when I leave the salon. Smile

I took loads of pictures with me and come out with a fringe that I love! Especially when up. :)

I haven't taken a down picture yet because I walked straight from the hairdressers into torrential rain and gale force winds so it went a bit nuts, but here is my fringe! :) thanks brain for all the help and advice. You guys rock!

Love that Marie Claire thing! Thanks.

Have a go OP. It is really obvious really quickly what suits you, which for me is shoulder length, loose, side parting, long layers. Very boringly, that is what I have already so top marks to my hairdresser. I guess I'll have to accept what I have is as good as it is going to get.

I cant decide for you between the blunt fringe and the long layers but I reckon it will sort it out for you.

Off to do the eyesahdow thing now....

Will a very slight side part work? I part mine literally a centimetre off-centre, but it makes a huge difference. Like you, mine doesn't like to part at the side, but it will cope with a teeny side part. I sometimes use a snappy slide thing to keep in the place when it's being really stubborn.

Go for something like the Alexa or Lily pics posted above - they're both more fresh, updated layered versions of the picture you really like.
