Short hair picture from about 5 years ago, was based on Victoria Beckham style when she got married . Not a great photo unfortunately.

Or long hair picture from 5 minutes ago.

Stay long or go short again?

neither lol

I would say you would look fab with a layered bob to frame your face

Short short! Like it better.

SugaryBits · 15/07/2008 20:23

Don't think I qualify for the style council but I would say short.

forevercleaning · 15/07/2008 20:23

short

Leek · 15/07/2008 20:24

Short, most definitely. Or, at the least, lots of layers if you keep it long.

WowOoo · 15/07/2008 20:24

Shorter.

I've done bobs, bobs are a nightmare as my hair is really fine and fly away. It doesn't stay tidy in a bob.

I like short.

NickiSue · 15/07/2008 20:24

short

Fimbo · 15/07/2008 20:24

Definately short.

I had long hair up until a fortnight ago and have just had it chopped it feels great. (I have very fine hair though lots of it and it just didn't look right long)

theinsider · 15/07/2008 20:26

Short, definitely. It looks like more of a "hairstyle" and is much more flattering. The long hair just looks like you haven't had it cut.

cocolepew · 15/07/2008 20:26

Short(er). Your hair is dragging your face down, I keep my short for the same reason, cut a sweeping fringe in as well. You'll look younger.

AbbeyA · 15/07/2008 20:27

Short.

Vote for short. Maybe a slightly more contemporary style since it's 5 years on

MyDingaling · 15/07/2008 20:28

short

cocolepew · 15/07/2008 20:30

No Daphne I'm putting my foot down. No wispyness not on fine hair.

You really shouldn't pay any heed to me, I cut my own hair

CoolYourJets · 15/07/2008 20:31

short with a fringey bit.

megcleary · 15/07/2008 20:32

short

fishie · 15/07/2008 20:32

short of course and with a fringe.

you have a lovely neck.

LittleMissBliss · 15/07/2008 20:32

Not too short i think your old hair cut was a bit harsh for your face. I think you need something softer like this lovely number!

flowerybeanbag · 15/07/2008 20:33

Ooh I'm glad I opened this giddy, get to nosy at what you look like!

I vote short as well.
