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 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.
