I've never been on the fence about cutting my hair like I am lately, I don't know what the deal is! I really want to do it, but then I wonder if I'm going to miss the long hair the minute I cut it. I know hair grows back and that's always been my thinking behind cutting my hair but it's been so long for quite awhile now so that probably has something to do with it.
For reference, here's what it looks like now, straight and curled...
And some ideas I have for a cut...
I'd probably just do the cut now and worry about color, if any, later.
Gah!
I don't know if I'm asking for advice or just talking or what lol.
So here's the cut. I'm still trying to figure out styling it. At the salon she curled it with a 1" curling iron which I wasn't really digging. At home I tried "fixing" it with a bit bigger curling iron and it helped a little. I slept on it and this morning used a flat iron to curl it. Finally I can get this technique to work! I could never get it to work on longer hair.
My hair is about as long as yours and I'm ready for a chop too. Mine is curly though, so it poses some challenges. I think both of those cuts would look great on you. And your long hair is amazing too.
