I’ve been bored with my hair for several months now. I’ve been putting off doing anything to it in case I regret it, but that’s no fun. My original plan was to try to grow it down to my waist, just to see if I could. I’m only about 2-3 months or so from this goal, so essentially I know I “can” do it. It’s just that it sorta looks crappy lately. I’m not very good at styling it, and I’m tired of it.
I want to get something completely different, like a long A-line cut or something.
But before I cut it all off, I may as well have some fun with it and dye it some funky colour for no other reason than I want to and have never been able to.
Poll —————————————————————————>
Some pink examples (the second one is actually me in a wig, so you can see the pink with my pale skin tone)
How the hell do I vote? Blue, in any case.
I know a girl who always gets an A line cut, and it NEVER looks good. People tell me it suits her, and perhaps I’m old fashioned. Regardless, my vote is against A line for one good reason. If you don’t like it, the only alternative is a boy haircut or waiting. You can’t pull it back, you can’t style it differently, you’re stuck with your A cut.
Shoulder length, long enough for a pony tail, is always the best option. Then you can do whatever you like with it.
And funky colours wash/fade really q
uickly and require bleaching before hand (generally). Again, perhaps I’m old fashioned, but I’d recommend going with a really deep brunette or red. Try something natural that you could wear in a business meeting. Perhaps you’d like it. Perhaps again, I’m old fashioned.
As boring as it may be, I am going to have to agree with Gord. You’re going to need your more adventurous friends (like Ian) to help you with this. 🙂
@ Ian: Does the poll at the right now show up for you? It should be right above the “categories”.
@ Gord: I know they need bleaching and fade; I’m going to be cutting most of my hair off anyway so I may as well fry it before it ends up on the floor. ^_~
Whenever I dye my hair red the dye stays in for months/years until I cut it out, so I’m trying to avoid anything red-based for a while.
I wonder if they make veggie-based dyes in normal colours; it’s the fact that the dyes are vegetable based instead of chemical-reaction based that funky colours fade so quickly compared to “normal” hair dyes.
And if nobody likes the A-line idea, what other haircuts are good these days? I’ve had the same damn haircut since grade 10, just at various lengths, and I’m tired of it.
I can see the poll (and I could before) – what I can’t see is any way to vote in it.
