I am having my hair cut tomorrow and need some ideas about what to get done.

I currently have jaw length very fine blonde hair. It was in a graduated bob but I am letting it grow out as I want it longer. I'm also thinking of going brown for a while but I have very fair skin so i can't have anything too dark otherwise I look dead.

I need to find the perfect shade of light brown that looks radient and not "mousey" and crap!

So - can anyone style me?

Oh and to make matters worse - I have a round face which means anything bob-like makes me look mega fat AND I have loads of new hair growing from having ds. It sticks up all over the place - so I'm thinking about a fringe - even though it will make me look like my 6 year old dd!

Isn't there a website where you can upload a photo of yourself and try out different hairstyles. Sorry haven't got a clue of the name.

I have tried that before but it doesn't really work very well!

I had a fringe once - when Helen was in Big Brother with her big sweeping fringe. I cried about it for weeks - it looked horrible! Mind you my hair looks horrible now - I think it's a case of deciding which is going to be worse!

something like This?

I think thats a bit too trendy for me - I'm normally into the girl next door kinda look aka Jennifer Anniston or Reese Witherspoon!

I'd never get my hair to look like that anyway - and I'm not sure I'd want to actually.

But THANK YOU for looking!

If you're going to a decent hairdresser then they should be able to advise you better than we will without seeing or feeling your hair.

Why dont you get it cut in the style suggested by Furball, you don't need to wear it done like that every day, but it will be nice and choppy and make your hair look thicker, you can sweep the fringe to the side if you don't have time to do it.
Also think about some brown lowlights, this will also add depth to your hair whilst still keeping you blonde.
Im also deathly white with a football shaped face so gotta be careful!
Keep the layers longer round your face and its fine though.
I have a cut very similar to this and its easy to keep.
