It is gorgeous hairdressers will be swamped mark my words!

CybilWar · 27/10/2009 18:29

I got dh to print the pic out at work (our printer NEVER works but thats another story), so I can show my hairdresser like a geek.

nightofthewakingdead · 27/10/2009 19:29

Ooh will look forward to reports.

Am quite relieved to see those piccies - my hairdresser cut my hair MUCH shorter than usual a couple of weeks ago.

It was supposed to be a kind of angled bob, but actually it just sits on my collar line and so turns OUT not in (a little à la Lily Allen).

I am coming round to it.

It is blond (highlighted) though, not dark like Lily's and my fringe is a bit shorter.

AitchTwoToTangOh · 27/10/2009 19:33

hah! cyb, i saw that photo and thought she looked LOVELY. if you have thick, thick hair then it'll be lovely.

CybilWar · 27/10/2009 19:35

Oh I do have thick thick hair.

It's curently the longest its been for ages and its fine on the day I wash it then goes tits up and I end up wearing it scraped back in a booble. Not a good look

RainRainGoAway · 27/10/2009 19:37

Just done something like that and I look fairly MILF with it!

CybilWar · 27/10/2009 19:43

oh goody!

vacaloca · 27/10/2009 23:32

what's MILF again?

CybilWar · 28/10/2009 07:26

Mother I'd Like To fuck fondle

Basically, the look we're ALL striving for

vacaloca · 28/10/2009 09:35

Oh, I like that.

MIL has already got used to me calling her 'MIL' on emails and she quite likes it. I hope I don't start saying Dear MILF by mistake.

stakethroughtheheartofgold · 28/10/2009 17:23

well i kind of did it

i did say "like lily allen's but longer" and took the picture in to show my hairdresser, but i also asked her to blend the fringe in at the edges as i look dreadful with curtains, so the result is half lily allen, half purdy - a longer version of one of my favourite ever hairdos so i'm a happy girl. she did cut the fringe lily-length to start with but asked if it was going to get on my tits nerves being in my eyes all the time and i agreed it would so she cut it shorter (and it'll get there soon enough, last time i had it cut was august 08 ).

oh but as predicted it looks terrible blonde. i have pink and dark brown hair dye, not sure which - if either - i'm going to go for.

cocolepew · 28/10/2009 17:49

Ohhh get you lot, is this the offical MN haircut? I have similar except I have it short over my ears and the back is short. So basically it's nothing like it . Buy kirby grips, when you're at home long fringes are annoying. I pin mine on top of my head and DD thinks I look like Elvis .

stakethroughtheheartofgold · 28/10/2009 18:41

lol coco, on way home i bought sparkly kirby grips

stakethroughtheheartofgold · 29/10/2009 10:34

heh left hair to dry naturally this morning. since dd2 it's gone from poker straight to fairly wavy. have realised i don't have a lily, i have a dobby

CybilAviationAuthority · 29/10/2009 13:27

Wow stake you did it!

I am going tomorrow, can't wait as I have my hair in a Cocolepew/Elvis kiby grip combo at the moment and it aint doing me ANY favours.

Next...A Lily Allen face transplant.

cocolepew · 29/10/2009 16:13

You insulting my hair cybil?

CybilAviationAuthority · 29/10/2009 17:30

No no lol.

cocolepew · 29/10/2009 17:33

We could form a band

CybilAviationAuthority · 29/10/2009 17:35

lolas long as I don't end up like this
