heres a selection of the colour and styles its been. basically ive only ever had a bob (it was angled at the back) in a few different shades and sometimes more layers. i always straighten it because i cannot stand the frizz. the times i have left it naturally curly i only take photos when its looking particularly smooth. I find by the end of the day when wearing it curly i throw it up in a pony tail becuase its annoying the hell out of me. lol at the fact i seem to take all my photos from the same angle and only when my hair is down
this is me a few months ago (its my staff photo but i actually like it!) and my hair has been this length and style for about 3 years now
i told my nan i was going to shave it super short and she looked so sad, my mum was like go for it!

Splodge2003 : I think you look fantastic with a short bob. I wouldn’t shave it all off if I were you, but what about going for a darker colour? Brunette? Maybe with deep purple highlights if you want something more unusual?

Also have you ever tried a fringe straight across your forehead?

I’ve donated 2 or 3 times so far. If you go that route, just make sure to do your research first. Locks of Love is actually a terrible organization.

I think you’d look really good with a long Bob with a straight across fringe in a bright red colour!

valintine : I liked the bob but I had to straighten it every.single.day… if I leave my hair to it’s own devices it just doubles in volume and the curls are so uneven and frizzy. The slightest bit of moisture and it just poofs up and if it’s straight the curl returns in the most annoying places. I had a blunt fringe once and it looked nice for the first half hour after I straightened it but as soon as I walked out the door it just fluffed up and started to curl lol
im going to donate to a uk charity called the princess trust who make wigs for kids who have lost their hair for any reason and they give them to them for free.
Im thinking of going this sort of length and eventually growing out into a pixie. It will be fun to see what kind of textures I end up with 🙂

I am currently growing out an undercut!
I have had a wide variety of wild haircuts and colors. From a shoooort pixie, to blue/pink/purple hair. My favorite has been the undercut. I get the best of long hair and short hair. I’m growing it out for my wedding, but mostly because after my wedding I’m chopping all my hair into a pixie/bob again.
I love doing funky things with my hair. In the end it grows back. If you hate it, just wait a few months and it’ll be fine.

beevincent18 : Yes, I did see that after 12/31 they are not accepting donations, but still working for the next 4 years on making the wigs. Their justification is that synthetic wigs are so good now that they don’t need as much real hair, which is obviously a good thing for patients.
