I feel middle-aged and frumpy. My hair has always been dead straight, fine and completely lacking in body but since DS was born 7 months ago it seems to have got worse. While I was on maternity leave I tried to grow it from a short crop to a bob, but it was taking ages and seemed to look a permanent lifeless mess, so just before I started back at work I decided to go back to the crop.
Disaster! I think this is possibly the worst cut my stylist has ever given me. It's not short enough to be a crop, the layers on top are too long and sit flat to my head, and the sides around the ears are too long and kind of flick out (not in a flattering way). My highlights really need doing again too.
I'm booked in for next Saturday - highlights, cut and blow-dry - but haven't a clue what to do with it. Thinking of leaving it long on top to tuck behind my ears, then tapered into the neck at the back - had this once before but means that the back hair is dark while the top hair is quite blonde and not sure I'm keen on the two-tone look.
I need something low-maintenance, trendy and easy to manage as I am useless at blowdrying and only have 5 minutes in the morning to spend on my hair. Can any of you wonderful ladies help me?
