Calling all hairdressers - Thinking of cutting my hair short!

[burstingbug]

I have fine straight hair which is past my shoulders almost to mid back. I'm thinking about having it cut short due to my 2 ds's 18.5 mths and 3wks constantly swinging off of it. I have no idea on how I want it. Any ideas for styles greatly recieved. Obviously I'll need a quick, easy to manage style.
TIA

What about something like This? or This?

Do you have/want a fringe?

I don't have a fringe, no objection to having one. Both me & dh quite like the 1st style.

Be careful with the first one - it could easily look like a mullet imho

The second one is lovely though.

I am a hairdresser, imo I would opt for a layered textured bob, that way if you want to grow it again, it will be alot easier.

I think the first one is nice, cut using a razor I would say.

May I hijack to ask a question, as I'm in a similar situation myself?

Would this style work with glasses? (And with slightly wavier hair, so probably more like the smaller 'Next Style' picture.)

ohhhh me too bursting bug. I need inspiration but I don't want layers as find it just goes fluffy and hate using loads of products in my hair.

those styles are nice but don't look wind resistant

please be sure before yiou cut your hair that you aren't pg cause thats when I get the urge to cut my hair and regret it immensely

No style is wind-resistant! {grin] Not unless you yank it back into a pony or bun, or glue it down with products - or shave!

PrettyCandles - I wear glasses and that would annoy me. It's very heavy round the front.

what about something like This?

I hope i'm not prg! not had sex since conception of ds2!
So was the verdict 1st or 2nd pic or keep searching ?

burstingbug - what about This?

yup, quite like that one too, although dh just said 'its alright' in that bloke tone they use!

Mmm, that's a possible, too.

Crossed posts, I mean the one that Furball suggested for me. Do you want a fringe, burstingbug? I don't - I've had one for years and want to try something different. I've been growing it out now for neraly 9m.

I don't mind a fringe, been years since I had one, been over 10 years since my hair was short and in a bob eugh!

I'll probably end up with one eventually, cos my hair grows straight down at the front. But at least I shall try something different to the usual chop across the eyebrows.

Bob looked really good on me! But high-maintenance.

Furball that one looks a bit newsreadery
