CALLING ON STYLE NATION .... I NEED YOUR OPINION :)

HELLO STYLE NATION !!!

EVERY SO OFTEN I GET THE OVERWHELMING ITCH TO CUT MY HAIR.
I ADMIRE AND LOVE SHORT, CUTE HAIR - BUT I HAVE TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION 
A FEW THINGS.... 
 MAINLY , WILL I HAVE A BREAK-DOWN IF I DON'T LIKE IT ???
A. I HAVE TO CONSIDER MY FACE SHAPE FOR ONE. ( I HAVE A VERY LONG NOSE AND BIG EARS )
B. THE AMOUNT OF TIME THAT WILL GO INTO STYLING IT.
C. IS IT HAT-FRIENDLY ?
D. MY HAIR QUALITY AND CHARACTERISTICS..... IT'S VERY, VERY STRAIGHT AND FINE !


COLORING IT ACTUALLY ADDS FULLNESS, BUT BY THE END OF THE DAY, IT IS FLAT AS MY BUTT, AND A DOZEN GRAYS HAVE SNUCK IN ... WITHOUT PERMISSION ...
I'D GO GRAY IN A HOT MINUTE ( I ADORE EMMY-LOU HARRIS'S DO ) 
BUT I HAVE THE SKUNK STRIPE GOING ON.
SOOOO ...
WHEN I GET SCISSOR-HAPPY, I CUT MY BANGS. ALL THE 'STYLE GURU'S' SAY THAT'S WHAT TO DO TO SCRATCH THE ITCH. BUT, I GOTTA TELL YA, THE ITCH STILL ISN'T SCRATCHED.
I'M SHOOTING FOR A FLATTERING STYLE 
THAT ISN'T DRAGGING ME DOWN.
A YOUTH-BOOST IF YOU WILL ;)


THANKS TO THE STYLEUNDERDOG, 
AND THE COMMENTS I READ AFTER ASKING HER IF SHE'D EVER HAD LONG HAIR, I DECIDED TO LOOK AROUND FOR A 'DO'..... AND WEIGHT THE PROS AND CONS OF THE FREEDOM OF CHOPPING THE LOCKS. IS IT REALLY FREEDOM OR MORE WORK?
( I ABSOLUTELY HATE TO WASH AND STYLE MY FRIGGIN HAIR ! )
I WENT TO THE PROS - THAT'S RIGHT - IN STYLE MAGAZINE !!!
HERE'S WHAT I CAME UP WITH SO FAR ..........

THE BEST IMAGE I COULD FIND....

(DON'T LAUGH, I WAS TRYING A BEACHY HAIR-DO AND FAKE LASHES)

     1. LESS BANGS                                                                                 2. LOT-O-BANGS

STYLE ONE :

THE CHIN SCRAPING BOB, IN DIFFERENT COLORS .

I HAVE ALREADY NOTICED I LOOK FRESHER WITH A TOUCH OF RED...

HOWEVER, 

SHINE DOES NOT HAPPEN WHEN I

 USE PRODUCT TO GET VOLUME...

STYLE TWO :

3.

A SHORT BLOWN-OUT 'LET THE GREYS GO' BOBETTE...

( NOTE, MY HAIR WILL FALL FLAT BY AFTERNOON .)

I THINK I'M VENTURING INTO SOCCER MOM TERRITORY HERE ...

4. KEIRA KNIGHTLY CHOPPED AND HIGHLIGHTED OUT THE ASS !

( I REALLY LIKE THIS ONE ! )

4A. BALLS-TO-THE WALL ......

 4B. BALLS TO THE WALL ....

4C. MORE BALLS...

                                            5.                                          6.

KA-POW BOBS WITH HIGHLIGHTS ( OR NOT )

THE SECOND ONE WOULD SHOW OFF MY EARRINGS ;)

7.  CHOPPY SIDE SWEPT

( WHICH WILL REQUIRE LOTS OF STYLING AND DROOPAGE )

8. LONGER SHAG

( AGAIN LOTS OF STYLING, I THINK ....)

9. A PERM WITH HIGHLIGHTS AND LOTS OF STYLING

( CONTRARY TO MY GOALS, BUT STILL MY DREAM HAIR )

1O. ROCKER CHIC ( WHICH MY HAIR IS EXACTLY THIS TEXTURE...

CONS : FREQUENT TRIMS ....

MAYBE JUST A TON MORE BANGS ? 

AND CHECK OUT MY MAKE-UP IN IMAGE 2, I SHOULD BE WEARING YELLOW-TONES...

WHO KNEW ?

                                           11.                                              12.

OR MAYBE THE STYLE I WORE DURING THE 90'S ( FIRST IMAGE )

AND THE EXACT BOB I HAD ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO ....

( MY HAIR GROWS VERY FAST :)
I PICKED THIS PARTICULAR BOB AS MINE ALWAYS LOOKED UNKEMPT ;)

ARRGH !!!!!

I WOULD MISS MY BRAIDS AND BUNS....

AND IS MY PROFILE SHORT-HAIR FRIENDLY ?

AND A CONFESSION :

IF I WERE SINGLE, I'D HAVE CHOPPED IT YEARS AGO !

MAYBE I NEED A FEMINISM INTERVENTION.........

OK, GUYS, WHICH STYLE DO YOU THINK IS MOST FLATTERING ???
OR JUST KEEP IT THE SAME ? THAT'S OK, TOO :)

PLEASE TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE TEXTURE OF MY HAIR AND LAZINESS INVOLVED ;)

( MY LONG FACE AND BIG-ASS NOSE AND EARS. )

ALL CUTE PEOPLE LOOK GOOD IN SHORT HAIR, AND I'M NOT "CUTE" ;)
