Hair a bit meh- what to do (pic)

I have very fine hair with highlights in currently on top of faded red hair (natural red head). I’m booked for colour and cut on Saturday. I’m toying with short bob (dull?) or v short or just something less “mum”
Any ideas?? Colour wise I was thinking more copper back in it to try and find my youthful red! Thank you

what about a pixie cut with copper colored highlights through it? it would be a big change but i think it would suit you, it also is not a 'mum' style. best of luck, please show us what its like when done!

My ears stick out which makes me fear v short but equally pixies are well known for their ears no?! Wink

I think a. It of copper added back in would brighten up your hair and look lovely. A bob can look stylish if you have it cut in well especially a short bob with the back wedged (not sure what you call it really but I mean when it is cut right under). Or an asymmetrical bob but you have to be good about keeping on top of it.

Not the colour but the shape but not sure I have enough hair!

i think that even if you are not sure about your ears, you would still look great with a pixie x

If you go copper, how will you manage re-growth? I am a faded reddish too and have gone blonde on top (naturally) but still reddish at the back Hmm I have deep gold highlights. I'd love to go darker but am prob much older than you and don't want to pay for roots doing every few weeks.

Long pixie with root fade (you'll need some root boost and a round brush, but it's worth it!)
