How short would you go?

[*Ali*]

I have LOTS of hair and it can be relativley curly as well, I wear mine shortish (not super shot), but I have it razor cut to have all the bulk taken out. It is so easy to blow dry and straighten into a style- my hair kinda looks like this Lisa Curry

I would do it in stages - maybe start with a short bob, then if you like that maybe go for a pixie cut (like Posh) then if youre still keen go for your shaved do! I think that way if you decide you dont like it short you havent gone the whole shebang iykwim?!

I've had my hair cipped back to a number 2 and a huge variety of short-short styles. It's so much easier to style and manage when it's short. I've never hesitated for a moment to cut huge amounts of hair off - it's only hair and it always grows back.
If your hair is pretty thick I'm guessing it grows fast too. Mine grows pretty fast which is great because if I decide I don't fancy a style I can grow it out and get a new style really soon. The down side is that keep your short style looking sharp you do need to see a hairdresser at least once every 6 weeks.
My husband always says he doesn't like this and he doesn't like that if I ask him about it so now I just go and get it done without discussing it first and he always likes it. Wjat he likes in theory and what he likes in practice are differant things lol.

I have very very thick and wavy hair......I'd had long hair for a while, then gradually got shorter and shorter. Like Ali I get my hair razor cut to take out the bulk. I have had short hair for a while now (not as short as a #2...I think you should be pretty slim for that otherwise your head looks too small for your body IYKWIM) and I'm over it and want to grow it back.

I am living overseas at the moment and don't trust that I won't end up with a bowl haircut if i go to the hairdresser here!!!

My BF at home is a hairdresser so she would always be trimming it for me....now it's just feral!

I always say to friends 'CUT IT'...it's hair...it always grows back'

My hair was down to my bum. I have thick and lots of hair. Always had it tied back or plaited. I was told i looked matronly and older than i am. I got a short bob, so got at least 40cm chopped off in the one go. I loved it. So easy. Then i wanted to go even shorter.

My hair is similar to this but brown and i love it. So easy and i look so much younger than i am and my neck looks fantastic too.

I would cut my hair to that of your image, only if i had the guts.

CUT IT!

I think if I lived in tracky pants and tshirts then super short hair might not work, you have to keep your image a bit edgy to get away with short hair - I think if you weren't making an effort with your face and clothes you might look unwell but if you are pretty good at maintaining your makeup and clothes then I think it would work well.

I've gone as short as an inch in length and loved it. My hair is like yours - super thick and wavy and having it too long is just too much hassle. I had it to just below my shoulders but got 4 inches cut off it the other week so it's more of a bob now and it's more manageable. I don't think I would go short-short again though because it made my face look really round and I didn't like that much.
