Help me (hair.with photos)

[StillMedusa]

Hair cut tomorrow I'm 51, don't wear makeup and have a big nose (I'm really selling myself here )

My hair is brown and grey streaked.. gave up the dye 3 years ago and I'm not colouring it again, and after a particularly bad short hair do 18 m ago I have been vaguely growing it.

I don't want to go short but I am fed up of it hanging there (straightened) or just fuzzing out (naturally wavy). Shall I get a fringe? Layers? any ideas?

You're beautiful 😊

I think you'd look fab with a fringe.

I think you could go shorter and a bit sharper.

Don't get a fringe unless you've had one successfully before. You look like your fringe area hair grows up and back and out to the sides like mine does (instead of forwards) - as a result I have never managed a decent fringe!

I actually think your hair is amazing as is.

Agree about the fringe. A soft long layered “French fringe” would highlight your lovely cheekbones.

Wow, I love your hair. It looks gorgeous. No useful advice from me..... although would suggest some colour for a change.....not a solid colour, more some interesting tones added through it.....

I don't think you should get a fringe. You look lovely. Maybe a bit of a trim and some long layers to take a bit of the weight out. Maybe try a loose wave. My hair is a similar length and I get the hairdresser to do a loose wave with the straighteners which I love, just haven't managed to master it myself yet

Lovely hair!

Agree a tad shorter, shaper lines and graduated slightly.

Your beautiful btw!

I'm with the fringe brigade! If you don't want a full on sharp fringe you can brush it to either side a bit.
And your hair (and you) look lovely
Pls post an after picture

No to fringe

A chic graduated bob I'd say

Don't go for a fringe.

You're beautiful.

You are lovely looking.

I like your hair but if anything would just have a sharper long bob.

I could do a side fringe... a 'proper' fringe won't work as my hair just splits as per the picture...I can blow it down a bit but not fully.
I'm not colouring again ever (even though I know I might look a bit less old!) because I LOVE the freedom of no roots, less expense.and actually I like seeing my white streaks appear and spread... I tend to wear jeans or harem (proper nappy pants ones) a lot of the time so aged hippy is fine by me!

Perhaps some layers and a bit of graduation then? Maybe a bit of a side fringe (I did have one but it's grown )

Any pics would be great! I'm hopeless at asking for haircuts and have had more disasters than I can count...

I think just a trim and some long layers then loose curls like this. Wouldn't go much shorter. Maybe try and find some good products to help add some shine?

Side fringe is nice it softens people's face, also layers do bring shape to a hair cut.

We’re not much help are we, the thread pretty much reads get a fringe, don’t get a fringe, get a fringe, no don’t get a fringe

I think work with what you’ve got, and that if your hair is naturally wavy then you should try some different products to minimise the fuzz. This is totally hypocritical of me as I’m always straightening my wavy hair, but it’s totally frazzled as a result.

That’s my hair that’s frazzled by the way, I’m not saying yours looks frazzled!!

I actually love the colour of your hair. I would ask for a sharp bob. I wouldn't have a fringe through.

I think a long side fringe would work but NO LAYERS. Your hair is a bit like mine and layers just fluff out on me. I'm the same age as you.

I'd say, just a few inches shorter, with a side fringe and shaping in at the ends.

Just a little shorter would look great. You look good already.

Maybe a little shorter and a side fringe?
It looks great as is, though.

Lovely hair! I'd get a tidy and shape - sweepy fringe if you want a fringe as blunt ones grow out in minutes
