I don't know if anyone remembers my previous thread but just to recap I'm 27 and Look about 14 I got lots of useful advice regarding making myself look older and I am getting my hair restyled tomorrow. I was thinking of going for a shorter bob. I have attached two pics of my hair now and will attach some.more of the sort of styles I was thinking.

Are any of these good? Am I in the wrong ball park altogether? Which ones do you prefer? Please feel free to add your own better ideas

What about a lovely Claudia w big blunt fringe? You're very pretty and I think the heaviness of the style would look a more stylish mature look?

The bibs are nice but trends such as shaved sections / undercut may emphasise your youthful looks with the bang on trend styles!

I know you’re looking for a change but I think you look absolutely lovely in your first pic.

I’m debating something similar myself. I love this look but then I wonder if it’s more the fact that Marion Cotillard is stunning than that the hair might look good on a mere mortal!

Those are lovely. TBH I think as soon as you actually have a haircut then you'll look older whatever the style is. Do you have a regular hairdresser? If so speak to them about what will suit your hair. If not, ask your friends with nice cuts who does their hair and go to them and have a discussion about getting a cut that works with your hair. A lot of hairstyle photos are all about the styling and are a pain to recreate in real life, you want a cut that you can wash and go with on a regular basis even if there is the possibility of making it look more done when you want.

I think your first picture or the miriam one would work. The second looks a bit fun festival goer to me. As pp says though you'll give of a more professional vibe with the shorter styled hair anyway. How tall are you by the way? I'm just thinking of how you might dress etc as had a similar chat with a gorgeous girl in our office this week who doesn't feel she's being taken seriously so we discussed her work wardrobe which was coming across a bit too playful although she always looks lovely, just not business like.

You have such lovely hair it would be a shame to go very short. What about trying the longer blonde bob from your pictures? You could style it sleek or messy and see how you get on.
