I feel I am in need of a total change, but I am a little bit scared that I might not like it. Have you done anything drastic like this with your hair, and did you like it.Has anyone had their hair cut from long (below shoulders) to quite short.?
i had mine just above a boob length then more then a year ago i had it cut about 5 cm above the shoulder
a year later its growing on a snail speed, i regret having it cut, its just about below my shoulders and im getting hair extensinos
so if u wana change make sure that u are ready to face the consequences! why dont u just change the colour or get a fringe as its a litle thing but a great way to change your look :)Has anyone had their hair cut from long (below shoulders) to quite short.?
i had really long hair for a couple of years then this year i got it cut for a change cut to the shoulders but it 's growing already.
Don't!
I am trying to grow out a very short cut--and it takes forever and is a PAIN!!
okay when i was really little i did and i hated it but i got a HORRIBLE hair cut then!! But if you wnat to go shorter , you should go with a shoulder bob with medium layers and side swept bangs!! That would look really cute .! i was going to do that myself but i didnt want something that drastic because my hair is kinda long !
Yes I have,
in the beginning it takes time getting used to, but in the end I really liked it: easier to take care of, and your hair looked healthier as well.
I say you should just take the risk.... otherwise you'll never know if you look absolutely fab with short hair!!!!
Go for It!!!!!!!
hope it looks great!!!!
i think if your hair is that long then you should cut your hair short, because i think when people do that they look so much better because of the change
I did...I went from halfway down my back to barely 3 inches.
I acctually liked it, but it all depends on your facial features.
My suggestion, if you're really concerned about how you'll like, ask your hairstylist.
She'll have an idea of an ideal hairstyle for your face.
Go for it, it's a bit strange at first but you'll get used to it. I had long hair(down to my butt) for 20 years and my sister in law gt me pissed and took me to a hair dressers and I've never been happier:-)
Tis a big step but I'm sure you'll be happy!
yup, i have.
i think my hair is quite alrite actually.
as long as u kno wot suits u and all ull b fine
My hair was down to mid-butt length. I've always had my hair long. Then I decided to cut it. It was just above my shoulders. I cut over 2 feet off.
Although it did feel great, cooler, and made me feel sassier, I soon grew tired of it. I couldn't pull it back off my face. I noticed a pony tail, or a flip was cooler than the hair being short.
I would look at other girls with long hair and miss mine.
I haven't cut it short since then, 4 years ago. It's actually a little longer now than it was before I cut it.
Long hair makes me different, makes me stand out. I feel like it's one of my best features.
If you really love your hair, don't cut it. But if you do cut it, it will grow back out. Maybe it will take longer to grow out than mine, but it will grow.
i have. i always had longer hair but i love it now, i love it short! because its new to me and it does look gorgeous. but im using clip on extensions for when i want long length.
- dont do it unless your confident and have a really good hair stylist.
Yeah,i went from long curly permed hair to a crew cut. I loved it but no one else did so i let it grow again...
Yes I cute my long curly hair to like chin-length and I HATED it. But if your hair is straight it would be easy to adjust to short hair.
well i cut mine nto a bob and it didnt look that bad actually. it depends what shape head you have. if you have an oval shape, it doesnt go too well with a bob. i think if you have an oval shape, you should just cut it up to your shoulders and layer it. it will look nice.
yer i had myn cut short but it luked horrible x
Yes, i used to have long hair, and a beard, i looked like shirly temple had joind the kings of leon. It was to high maintenance, but then again i'm a bloke. i think a change of apperance is good now and again, show's people you have an adventurous side. Have you seen something you like? Give it a go, it'll grow back, or why not try a change of colour, a blue rinse perhaps?
My hair was long, i needed a big change so i went shorter in the style where its longer in the front , and shorter at the back but you can chose what to have. there is somewhere on the internet where you can download your picture and on there is loads of different hairstyles to choose from , and that way you can see what you like.I am not to sure what the site is called try putting in 3d hair picture hopefully something will come up.Dont be scared of getting your hair done, it will make you feel like a new person.
i just had 8 in cut about a month ago, i miss bieng able to pull it up but it has so much body now and is a heap more healthy, go ahead and do it it will grow back and sometimes it needs to be cut to get it back in shape
Something worth trying is getting your hair cut to just below your shoulders. It'll give you a better idea of whether you like it, and hair tends to grow quicker once it's past your shoulders if you don't like it. As a rule of thumb, shorter hair will make you look older and more mature (to a point). And if you have a round face you might find that long hair suits you longer, while short hair often suits a longer face.
ETA let us know what you decide!
yes i've changed my hair lots of times, i recommend going to a good hairstylist who isn't afraid to take a risk. read lots of hair mags and take photos you like of the style with you. A good stylist will tell it like it is. I have naturally curly hair so if i take a photo in of a woman with straight hair, my hairdresser laughs and says she can style it like that but it will be hard work to style and won't look exactly the same. don't DIY colour! i've done it many times and it never looks as good as professional colour.
Good luck and remember you can always grow it back! :)
i have my hair was to my waist and niw is above my shoulders
Yes. I used to have my hair nearly down to my bum until i got it cut because my hair up to my shoulders was dead and it looked really short but i got used to it really quickly i liked it lots and everyone else liked it too when i went into school the next day it is okay having your hair short just don't get it cut too short because it might not suit you
Hi honey, I went from below my shoulders brown, to short blonde and spiky on a whim, and although I loved it for a while, I eventually got bored of it again (but that's just me!) I've now got a concave bob, and am experimenting with different two tone colours to satisfy my need for change. A change in colour may make you feel a little better perhaps? And is easier to rectify than a drastic cut. Also can I suggest that you go to the website below to try out your face with different styles to see what does and doesn't suit you...
Good luck with it and have fun!
DONT do it, I had it dont around christmas last year, I hated it so much I cried for days! I would suggest you dont get a major amount of it cut off because it will be a big change, and if you dont like it.. it could take ages to grow out!
done it 3 weeks ago my hair was half way down my back and i was getting fed up with it so i went on a whim to the hairdresser and got it cut and layered just up to my shoulders and i love it no more detangling etc..and it feels so much better.. mind you everyone was shocked i got it cut that short
I HAD it below my shoulders cut up to my ears, I liked it for a while, but now it s taking forever to grow out
yes. i just had mine cut from past my butt to a little past my shoulders and i love it!!!!!!!!
I had hair down to my butt all my life, then I started dying and bleaching it just broke off. So I had to cut my hair to Chin lengh. of course I hated it at first and I was crying, but after realizing that it was my own fault and i had to make the best out of it, I put some layers in it and just tryed different hairstyles. Now I am as happy as i can be with it.
i recently just cut my hair....my hair was pretty long..it almost touched my waistline...and i cut it up to where it barely touches my shoulder...i put it in layers so it looks even more shorter than it actually is...i did it for a good reason though..i donated my hair to a charity LOCKS OF LOVE....and the truth i really didn't like it...there are many reasons... but the main one is because i never looked right with short hair...so pretty much it depends on the person's face shape, hair type, and other things like that ...good luck!
I have, and liked it..don't be scared...if you decide to have the chop..experiment using gels to give body...you will have fun..
I had hair down to the middle of my back, i felt like doing something different to it so i went to the local college and had it cut short,layered and highlighted blonde. It was the best thing i ever done with my hair and it only cost me the fraction of the price because a student done it (there was supervision from a trained teacher) so just go and try something new. Good luck hope this helps.
