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?

Oh and you can use a little product to style it and it and give it a little weight. If you liked the style in the link!

That's nice actually LMB, my hair might not be thick enough though.

They won't be there for long Flowery!

I was inclined to have it cut but I can't get a straight answer from anyone I know in RL. Thanks all, you've given me what I need! I'm going to book an appointment.

Highlights will make your hair look thicker, too.

I did once have a 'moment' where I cropped long hair with a pair of kitchen scissors.

Another vote for short

janeite · 15/07/2008 20:51

Short; it's lovely and makes your face look prettier and more delicate.

Pinkchampagne · 15/07/2008 20:52

Short

ExterminAitch · 15/07/2008 20:53

gosh, you're beautiful, you can do whatever you want. my hair's quite fine, i have a bob, i cunningly get it sliced with colour that is darker on the underside, makes it look like it has more depth to it, iykwim?

LaDiDaDi · 15/07/2008 20:53

Short, but not quite as short as before.

This is the era that my cut was based on. I still think she looks a lot better with short hair than she ever has since.

I think you've got the message now but another vote for short!

BibiThree · 15/07/2008 21:02

Short

girlnextdoor · 15/07/2008 21:03

short, short, short!

You have a long face and a high forehead- you should have a feathery fringe- with a side parting. You should also have some width at the sides to balance your long face. Maybe a chin-length layered bob, or even shorter?

Def. not long!

brimfull · 15/07/2008 21:03

short

your face is long and long hair accentuates that

ShinyPinkShoes · 15/07/2008 21:03

Short
