I just pinned this. It's a straight style but I think could be cute curly because of all the layers. I am having the same issue as you. My hairs are growing back and look terrible. Plus on too of that my curls have given up and decide by the end of the day to just look horrible so that the baby hair sticks straight up over the curly long hair instead of hiding. I want my old hair back.
I think it looks great. 8 inches off is a big change, and I'm sure you will get used to it/hair will grow. But you do NOT look like a soccer mom at all. So stop it with that nonsense.
