Spitfire, your curly hair is beautiful! It looks nice straight, too, but I sure wouldn't go to the trouble of straightening it if I had hair like yours!

Guess maybe I'm just sick of it. When it's curly the back is probly about 3 inches of my head. I'm a tiny gal and sometimes feel like I'm the hair lady.

Escapee I totally like you style but my hair is about 5 times thicker than that.

Actually, I have very thick hair. My poor sister's hair is so thick that you can't get your hand around it. Lil sis is the same way, I am not quite that thick, but still I have a ton of hair. I just got a cut that works with that not against it.

Love the curls!! Texturizing it and cutting some layers will help get rid of the bulk. Get a product like Paul Mitchell's super skinny serum and put it in your hair wet. Then you can just let it dry naturally or use a diffuser.

Escapee your discription or your sisters hair is what mine is like....especially curly.

So I'm thinking that everyone likes the curls. I look the same as what I did back in high school 20 years ago. No joke! My face has not changed since like grade 2. I was 7, that was 27 years ago. Wow....I'm suddenly realizing I not in my 20's any more. :-)

What about bangs? No right!

When my hair is curly I have so much product in it. I use a ton of mousse. Gel doesn't work but I will look into the Paul Mitchell stuff. I ALWAYS diffuse...upside down. It takes me about 15 - 20 to get my hair dried.

BTW Escapee that is a beautiful picture of you.

Thx Twinks. Spit I think the cut that Yankee has would look perfect on you. It's short but not super short. I can't see your curly pic too well but from what I do see it looks a lil 80s.

You really will need a good stylist who can remove the bulk but not necessarily make it short. I'm also gonna say no to the bangs.

Jeep I'd just make the 4hr drive every other month lol. But then again gas is still going up...

Yeah I was thinking a chin length cut, maybe a bit longer to compensate for curl, maybe a-line and leave it kinda tossled. The shorter the hair, the more curl, the less product, right? I say no to bangs unless someone has an unusually large forehead. Check out some hairstyle websites to find some inspiration. www.hair-styles.com is a good one.

Jeep, ask who she recommends for your hair. When my hair gal retired, she recommended someone else, who I hate to admit, does a way better job on my hair!

Spitfire, I have crazy thick and curly hair, too. I'm actually on my way this afternoon to get it cut.

I usually do soft layers to round it all out a bit... the shortest layers probably around the cheekbone, and then a few more until just below the shoulder. Ask your stylist to pull out the thinning shears once she's done the cut. Seriously, I can't get enough of the thinning shears. If you look back to this page of the archives, near the bottom you'll see a before and after shot of my hair. It's not as curly as yours looks in the posted photo, but it's thick, I tell ya.

Pix Pix Pix! CLICK HERE for pix in my folder of the 'shocking' new 'do I got this week. (I luv it!) If you scroll up a bit in my folder you'll see a pic of my hair recently (last month), and can compare. :-) I also posted pix of my wacky painted nails.

Mame, I love how kicky and fun your new cut is. It makes your hair looks so healthy and shiny.

I am in desperate need of a new style and just haven't taken the time to pursue it. My hair has alot of body and tends to "bouf" up too much with my shorter cut when I style it with the dryer and round brush. Plus I have an addiction to hair spray and end up with the "southern girl big do" if I am not careful. My DH would absolutely love if I had long hair, but I have an oval face shape and try to avoid anything too long and straight looking. Is there a good site that anyone has used to try out new styles on the net?

Thanks Beachcomber! My hair goes POOFSIES too when I blow dry it. So I have it ironed at the hair salon. :-) I have naturally wavy hair, to be honest. It's not curly, but it sure is wavy and has a mind of it's own.

Anyhow, I know there are sites on the net where you can upload your photo and see yourself with different styles. But I've never used them so I don't know where they are... I will try to google something for ya... but chances are someone else here will know more than me about it.

PS/ I love the Southern Girl Big Do! It's dh that loves the straight sleek look so I do it for him. Me... I'd be going around with poofy big hair every day. Personally I think its sexier on me. But ya know, it's not a big deal, and if a sleeker look keeps dh happy... (wink)

no pics yet but I finally went short on Friday and I LOVE it! It's like the Victoria Beckham style but w/o the severe angle. My hairdresser kicks butt!!!!

next I have to touch up my color but I go in my pool often and didn't want it to wash out. Need to rid of those pesky greys.

Panda ... I'm dyin' to see your pix. I use my cellphone camera nowadays and then email the pix to myself. It's THAT easy! :-) Also the pix don't need resizing from my cellphone, but they do from my regular digital camera that I use for professional stuff, which makes them humongous and way too big for the Clubhouse, and I always have to resize those. Not sure why I'm babbling on about this... just cuz, I guess. LOL
