Should I chop my hair??

[twentytinytoes]

Okay I am seriously thinking of cutting my hair a lot! I will call tomorrow to make an appt but i am unsure of if it will look good with my face shape. So honestly, and you wont hurt my feelings! Tell me what you think!





the before pic lol

[crecia27]

I keep toying with the idea too - I kept wondering how it would look with my big ole fat face too - then I realized that 75% of the time I have it pulled back in a pony so whats the difference? I say go for it!

[ZaCola3]

I like the 1st picture a lot...I think you are gorgeous so I'm sure you can pull it off!

[ditzyscrap]

I really like the top style...I think it would suit your face shape!

[tuneskids]

I like the top one too - it's similar to what I will be doing to my own hair soon.

[LibbysMommy]

Love the first cut, Katrina!! I think you should go for that one!!

[melrio]

Yep, the first one! I wish I had straight hair to do that one.

[LeeAndra]

You have a cute lil' face in your avie... so a cute lil' cut like #1 should suit you just fine.

[Joan]

Another vote for #1!

[Kat Stokes]

Definitely #1!!! I think it would look so cute on you!!!

[amyb]

I love that first pic!

[rainydays]

OoOo!!! The first one is gorgeous!!! Go for it girl!

[rochelle789]

Definitely #1, and it's still long-ish. It's a really cute style!

[Micheline Lincoln]

Def. #1 it's awsome!

[Becca Bonneville]

I would have to agree with everyone! #1!!

[Amber1279]

#1 for sure!

[uptowngirl]

Another vote for #1... still long enough to put in a pony too!

[twentytinytoes]

Thanks girls! and if i hate it i can throw it in a poni like I do most the time any way! I will be able to donate about 15 inches to locks for love while I am at it so its a good cause too Ack I am nervous now! Im going to call and make an appt tomorrow!

[Becca Bonneville]

That is awesome that you can donate to the Locks of Love! It will look fab! Just make that call! And don't forget to show us after you get it done!

[nesser1981]

I love having short hair. I think that would be really cute on you. I promised Sean I wouldn't cut mine again until Cooper turns 1. But I think short hair is my favorite. I can never make long hair look cute.

[digi-gee]

Katrina, I do love the 1st cut, but you could getaway with any of the choices and I think you would look fab in the last one too. I've always had longer hair and would just love to go for it once and try something really different. I think it's awesome that you want to donate to 'locks'. Be sure to post your new look. I'll be dying to see it.

[pbumbaca]

Katrina, I love the first one too but let me tell you my story just for another side...

I have had the same hairstyle for 25 years. It was down to my bra-strap(that's it's stopping point) and I really wanted one of those 'flip-up' cuts. So last May I bit the bullet and did it. Everyone loved it! I loved it, it took me 5 minutes instead of 1/2 an hour to do my hair. But DH HATED it. He literally did not speak to me for days. He still hates it and it's grown out about 4 inches since then. Also, I could not put it in a pony tail at all for a very long time (just an FYI) and it was about the same length that the first cut you are showing is because the pieces underneath are shorter and they will not go. Also, while I do love that style I do miss my long hair a lot of the time and add that to the fact that DH hates the new style has me stuck as to which way to go now, hence I haven't cut it in 6 months! LOL!

Anyway, I am sure you will be gorgeous if you do cut it but I wanted you weigh all your options. Although, I think just the donation part would do it for me!

[meems]

i like the 1st and last. good luck with the cut. short hair is much easier to manage i think.

[joelsgirl]

So maybe I'm missing something, but does nobody else totally adore Jessica Simpson's hair?! Cuz I'm now thinking about cutting my h air like that; think it'll make me look like her? Probably not, huh?

Oh, and about YOU, Katrina, I think you will look cute with any of them, and while I really am not a fan of Elisha's cut, I think SURELY you could pull it off better than she can.

[mrs_jb]

I like the first style Katrina! Go for it and my theory is always that it will grow back, ya know?

[newfiemountiewife]

Tony likes my hair very long, like Pam's DH. I told him last night while we were chatting that I wanted to cut my hair, he just made a loud noise LOL. My hair is SO thin it's awful, and long hair just does not look good on me, yet it's down to my braline again. After 10 minutes it looks stringy, just because it is so thin. My hair looks best when it's completely cut off, like SHORT but it grows so damn fast, I need it trimmed every two weeks, and you know I don't have time for that LOL.

I think either cut would look great, and being about to donate it is really really cool! Let me know what you're going to do!

[ajf9597]

I love the first one and think it's great that you are donating it!!

[LibbysMommy]

I can't wait to see pictures!!

[Angie4b1g]

The first one is almost exactly what I'm about to get. Maybe a TAD shorter.

[ditzyscrap]

LOL, Pam & Jamie. My DH likes my hair long too, but at least he doesn't stop talking to me when I cut it off (I do quite regularly, lol...I just get tired of it after a while). But my BIL wouldn't talk to my SIL (DH's sister) for a long time...she cut her hair off to really short just before they went on a cruise...when they got here, he was SO mad, he just wasn't talking to her, lol. I am sure he talked to her during the trip, but I'm guessing he didn't forgive her, lol.

[Nettio]

Wow, I can't even imagine my DH not talking to me over a haircut. But then my philosophy is it's my hair, I have to take the time to do it so too bad for him.

I had my hair cut just like #1 for a couple of years in college. I actually find it really funny cause it is so much more popular now then it was then. It was really cute and fun but it did require me styling it everyday. My hair is longer now and I wouldn't say it takes me less time to do it - my hair is just thick and wavy so anything related to drying it takes forever, lol. I say go for it.

[Leila]

I'd go with #1 as well, if I were 200lbs lighter and didn't have such a square face. I think it'll look great on you though, Katrina!

My hair is literally the longest its ever been at just below the bottom of my bra strap. My mom always kept my hair not quite collar-bone length or shorter when I was younger, and then I was just too chicken to let it grow out. Then I got married, lol! I actually had my first hair cut in two years just a couple months ago. They guy barely cut anything off...but I hate it. I'm just going to keep letting it grow for now. I figure I'll cut some length when I need two boxes of hair color to cover everything.

[my3hens]

I love number one too!! You can tell your gorgeous even from the side. I know it would work!! I cant wait to see the pictures!

[ColleenSwerb]

I've chopped off my hair and donated it to that cause 3 times now.

The last time I did it, my fiancee was not that happy wtih it. I chopped it and highlighted it. He doesn't like my hair short or blonde, LOL! But it's my hair, and I'll do what I want with it. He's also gotten used to it. It's one of those "I hate short hair but I love the way my wife looks" kinda things.

Speaking of which, I need to make an appt for next week to get mine trimmed and highlighted again, lol.

Enjoy! I can't wait to see the pics!!

Oh and ps - while the back pieces aren't long enough to pull into a pony tail all the time, a lot of the time I pull just the front pieces back and use a clip. Still looks super cute, and it keeps it out of my face.

[lizzyfizzy]

i am a hair cutting advocate! i hate it when people get stuck in a rut with their hair...hello it grows back! LOL i have had pocahontas long and halle berry in cat woman short! i love it all...definately consult to make sure it fits your face shape...then do it! you will love the change and hey if not...it grows back. =) i love that dramatic a-lined bob on top. i've had it and it's so easy to maintain and it's hawt!

[twentytinytoes]

Yah thats another thing that freaks me out, dh doesnt want me to do it. Usually I am really good about chopping my hair off. When i was in my bad girl days I actually took a razor to my head with a friend and we shaved em bald LOL and my hair was to my butt. Its almost there now and its so long now that it just seems to get in the way! Im always lying on it or my husband is and when i bend over to bath the kids my hair gets wet lol Ill show you guys if i like it but if i hate it you may not see another pic of me for a year! LOL

[my4boys]

I am voting for cut # 1 too...I have been wanting a similar style but my hair is SUPER stinkin thin not sure if it will work on me. GO FOR IT girl

[twentytinytoes]

OKay I made the appt. Friday at 1:30 eeeeek! LOL

[tracey]

Good Luck Katrina! I am sure it will look fabulous!

My hair is the exact same way, yet my husband likes it longer too. I gave up trying to please him though a long time ago and I do what I want, and my hair looks better because of it

Katrina, I am partial to the first one too. I just got my haircut that way three weeks ago and I love it. Maybe it is time for me to change my avatar!

[scrappychic]

Def the 1st one!

Go with number 2 FOR SURE! If you get it cut like that and DON'T like it, you can always go back later for the shorter cut. Plus, it's a GREAT haircut! Totally my pick.
