I'm going to the hair dressers for the first time in over 6 months tomorrow

Soubriquet · 25/11/2016 12:10

And I have no idea how I want my hair.

It desperately needs a good sort out and I've had the same hair style for years. I want a change without going too drastic.

Fringes aren't really in anymore are they?

I don't want too much off the length either but I could be persuaded I think.

So please please please hit me with some ideas

Please excuse my ugly mug Grin

So the first picture is it all curled nicely for a wedding

Second shows its length from the back all straightened

And the 3rd was just taken to show the mess it is now

Long fringy parts at the front

Niiiiiice

FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:21

That sort of thing

Can see your kids and other photos at bottom.

FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:22

How do you know they're her kids?

Soubriquet · 25/11/2016 12:23

Can't afford a dye job this week. It's £50 for a cut and blow dry!

And thank you. I'll report to mnhq and see if they can delete that specific one and I'll re-upload.

I don't mind showing my children off but I know some people get a bit iffy

TheRavensFeather · 25/11/2016 12:24

I was just pointing out there were pics of kids visible. She may not have realised and wanted them there for whole of MN to see Hmm

FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:24

Soub do the dye yourself

Red is easy; looks like someone has bled heavily in the bathroom but on brown hair it's quite predictable how it will turn out

FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:25

Nice passive aggression Raven

Soubriquet · 25/11/2016 12:27

I hadn't actually realised so thank you Raven

Though the photos are teeny so chances of seeing them clearly are slim but I know there's a couple of photos of dd not quite decent

OP posts:
FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:29

Soub if you download from your camera roll then it won't be screenshotted so it will only be the photo you want to display

ageingrunner · 25/11/2016 12:30

Perfectly reasonable and helpful to point out the kids being visible. What's passive aggressive about explaining that?
Op I think you should have a fringe, but a longer and wispier one than in your photo.

FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:31

That's not what I said is it though? I questioned how Raven seemed to know they were soubs children.

If you actually read my comment. But obviously you haven't.

And it was passive agressive to use the Hmm face. HTH.

TheRavensFeather · 25/11/2016 12:32

Hahah Fizz. Calm down you sausage 😂

Soubriquet · 25/11/2016 12:32

There you go. Photo removed and replaced

And this shows when I had my hair black and red. Cost me a bloody fortune though...£120!!

Oh that looks super pretty! Do that again!

ageingrunner · 25/11/2016 12:34

Lol fizz you're obviously desperate for an argument Grin

FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:34

Raven you're rude

FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:35

Sure ageing because I came on the thread before either of you looking for an argument...

I would just go to AIBU for that.

ageingrunner · 25/11/2016 12:35

The picture of Jennifer Lawrence was a suggestion for the op, nothing to do with fizz. I didn't put that post together very well 😬

Soubriquet · 25/11/2016 12:36

Thank you Raven

I was....18 I think for that photo. So 10 years ago. There purple in the back but I haven't got any photos showing the back

OP posts:
FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:36

Not really sure how it's argumentative to ask how she knows they are her children (obviously we know now) but there we are. Fwiw Soub I like it red, it's nice, autumnal

FizzBombBathTime · 25/11/2016 12:37

Ageing I was hoping you were giving me tips too! 😜

Soubriquet · 25/11/2016 12:38

I've got my birthday coming up soon so maybe I could treat myself to a dye job

OP posts:
FeliciaJollygoodfellow · 25/11/2016 12:46

I think a nice deep cherry red as well. I like the Jennifer Lawrence pic and think it looks lovely on her but I can't picture the colour on you if that makes sense?! You've got that lovely porcelain skin that's just crying out for some dark dramatic locks!

Soubriquet · 25/11/2016 12:47

Ah thank you Smile

I love having pale skin. My family (mum, dad, nan etc) always took the piss.
