DIY fringe, DH says it looks bad!

[CollyWombles]

Shameless picture attached. I randomly decided to give myself a fringe today, bored with the usual grown out long boring hair look. DH doesn't like it, says I don't suit a fringe! What do you all think?

It looks fine. He's probably just not used to seeing you with it yet.

well....it's very well done but goodness it goes a lonnnnng way back, very pudding basin meets Cleopatra.
you have beautiful skin and hair colour though.

I like it!

It's too heavy and long.

Thank you! I cut it fairly far back as I actually have quite thin hair and pulling it up in a pony tail left wide lines of scalp! My hair isn't naturally black however, it's a dark brown, I've dyed it black for many years though. I started going grey when I was about 20! Skin colour comes from the Irish side of my family.

I think you look great!!!

It really suits you.

Ignore those being bitchy, doubt they could carry it off and perhaps - -guaranteed- - those being mean would probably look better with a brown paper bag on their heads

Lovely! You did a great job.

I think you look lovely

I can take criticism, it's fine, could have come out really bad. I used a YouTube video, you basically section your hair and then pull the fringe section down, comb it through and then twist it one full turn, then cut across. Seemed simple enough!

I think it's great. I like the whole look with the glasses and ponytail.

I think a strong fringe would look better with the back of your hair down.

Obviously I don't know what it looked like before. So I'm being objective as much as I can as if someone had just asked 'what do you think of this haircut?'
I think with your glasses it pulls all the attention to the top of your face making it look a bit unbalanced. There's nothing wrong with the fringe per se ( nicely done!) but I think you'll need a fair bit of obvious make up like bright lipstick to balance the focus across your face. Heavy fringes are difficult to pull off.

I like it.
I always wanted a proper fringe but my forehead is so shallow it's postively neanderthal

I think it looks too heavy for your face. Perhaps cut it a little bit shorter, or wear it a bit to one side?

I like it. It looks quirky in a good way.

I like it. It is on the longer side of how I have mine.

I think it's done well. Maybe he just doesn't like the style? I think you look pretty.

I also think it's too heavy and long. On the plus side your hair is straight enough to take a fringe. I have wavy hair, and the shorter it is the wavier it is. It makes fringes out of the question.

We need to see a pic without the fringe to see why he is complaining...

Somehow it suits you but I didn't see it before! Normally a heavy bowl fringe would look awful but good for you that you can carry it off!

Sorry - it’s too heavy and long. I think it should be lighter and swept to the side. That would be more flattering.

It’s not even and it’s not jaggedy enough, so it just looks crooked. You tilted your head and the frames hide it a bit but it’s still visibly crooked. Have you tried taking the scissors straight up and cut (instead of parallel with your forehead)? You’ll get that messy, softer outline

It’s not good

I love it, think it really suits you

Do you have a before pic op?
