I need a new hair style!
Help!
My hairdresser is coming over tomorrow night and I have no idea what to ask her to do.
My old cut is the same as the Katie Holmes do http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ry6Y4MCjDE...400a073007.jpg and it works ok for me but it would be nice to try something else.
At the moment my hair has grown out a bit so I have a bit of length to play with but I want it short so it fits under my beanie. DH complains if it is too short so a short style that appears longer is always a plus lol.
I have fat cheeks so nothing that wouldn't suit a squirrel.
Not asking much am I? lol
ETA - no bangs!! I have a cow lick so they don't sit.
And it needs to be pretty much wash and wear.

What about something that's longer in the front but shorter at the back?

I have an angled bob, longer in the front shorter in the back.
It's very wash n wear but you need a good hair dresser or it can end up very "helmetish" at the back.

I have a bob too, slightly longer at the front (back is about bottom of ear level, front an inch longer), no bangs (have a cowlick too). Works well when I straighten my hair or leave it to go curly naturally. I can pull it up for the gym or use a headband. I also have it thinned, but that is done at the end after it has been dried/straightened.
I don't own a hairdryer (need to get one, keep on forgetting!) but do own a straightener, so when I do straighten it, it is dried with a hair towel and left to almost dry naturally before it is straighened, I just top-up the straightening every day or so if I'm keeping it straight. Currently it has been straight for nearly a week, with the cold I have at the moment I might wait until the weekend to wash it & let it go curly.

That might work seeing that I ride to work so I get helmet hair anyway

If what you have works, i'd stick with it!

Have you tried those online or iphone apps that you put your pic in?
Mine is longer at the front and about 1-2inches short at the back. So easy, love it!

Firstly, what is your face shape and does you hair have a slight wave or is it dead straight?
Katie Holmes has a heart shaped face if that helps...

Thanks to the wonders of the internet, a web cam and a ruler I now know that my face is somewhere between heart and oval. And that squirrel isn't actually a legitimate shape.
My hair is wavy.

Ashley Judd has a heart shaped face too, so anything that works on her would be good too...

I like the pixie cut but I know that DH would hate it. He would say it looked great but secretly hate it and tell me a year later....

Gah, men
How 'bout a Scar-Jo bob? http://fashionrules.com/tag/mango/ Last picture, although I like the new one too, but might be too close to what you already have...

DH says he doesn't mind a short style so long as it is sexy
So pixie cut it is.
I have to admit I'm a tad nervous. It's been about 8 years since I last had a short-short style and I'm pretty sure that my face looks different now..... maybe I'll chicken out and stick to my short bob lol.
