so you can see my face better
http://i582.photobucket.com/albums/ss...

Pretend that there is no celebrities and that thier is no styles in existance to this date and that thier is no trends. Then look at my picture and tell me what you think by answering these questions.

You must be logged in to vote:
  1. Up off my face and going upward
  2. pushed off of my face to the sides down or cut so it wont go over my face
  3. or down with bangs on my forehead

[poll: Hair going forward,hair going backwards(most likely not backwards because i heard it would make my nose look bigger)]

[poll: curly, wavy if you can do it, straighten it]

[poll: long(to my chin or cheek, medium(to my ears or temptles), short(shorter than to my eyebrows but longer than an inch), very short(less than an inch but i doubt i will ver go that short in my lifetime), buzzed(i dont have a very healthy scalp so it would look bad)]

[poll: soft looking natural appearance, sharp edges]
if sharp edges is your answer then should it be
[poll: soft spikyness, very gelled appearance]

[poll: keep the colour(which is kind o distorted in the picture so its hard to make out) I have ash brown, change the colour]
please tell me the colour below in a responce if you say im better changing it.

[poll:one length, layered]

[poll:smooth, choppy/pieced]

any other ideas put below in comments… thank you :)

and expose a pale dandrif ridden head? >.>

okay let me make it clearer….. a hairstyles consists of the qualities i listed and i dont want someone to just say a hairstyle because they will try and make me look like a celebrity they think i look like or they will try and make me fit in with the same trend they follow. so thats why i worded it like this.

you’re cute! ^_^ seriously! I’m sorry you’ve been depressed. I think you should just grow your hair out, it would look really good. However, if you don’t like that kind of stuff, I’d keep it the same. It looks really good! Or, keep in long in the back and short in the front, cause you’ve got interesting eyes. Just do what makes you comfortable. (Hope this helps? :D)

thanks ^^ *embarrassed* lol ….. long in the back and short in the front? you just described a mullet hahaha……. my hair sticks out really bad in the back actually and its longer than that now sice the first two pictures were taken in chrismas and the recent one is how i have my hair now since its too out of control i have to wear it in a pony tail and i have some hair hanging down in the front. but its begining to bother me and get tangled and feel hot and be in my way and looks to unstyled.

Honestly I don’t think you’d like bad with a shaved head. Just buzz it down with a 3 guard. Either that or get it cut shorter. Get a cesar type hair cut, but keep it a little longer on the sides and a little longer on top. But some crew palmade or wax and let your curls do everything.

I know but I also want to look and feel more ME. and on the inside I dont see myself as looking the way I do but I see myself as being able to be better.

what you mean by “go all the way”? lol and thank you ^^ Pulling it back and tying it is what i currently do for now but I want it different so im being very picky on how to get it cut. Only tricky thing is I dont want my personality to be stripped away with some generic plane haircut.

my scalps is pale and i have dandrif kinda so im sure that wouldnt work that great. caesar cuts hmmmmm its a bit too generic which i guess is why i never even considered it in the first place.

yea i dont know what the hair cut is called. usually I just told them to give me a cesar cut 3 or 4 guard on the side then i leave like 2 inches on the top. I got them to cut it with a razor so the lengths are uneven. Granted my hair is straight, but I what I meant is that you could leave like a a inch on the sides and have like 2 inches on top. You have to work with you hair being curly and wax or something would work well. Or just leave it longer and messy. If you are dressed up slick your hair back (only thing i can think of is ashton kutcher. Long messy hair, but he like combs it back to the side when he wears tuxs. whatever that movie was with him and cameron diaz)

Yeah its hard because some haircuts dont have names.

actually i heard making it go back is bad because it creates the illusion of a nose sticking further off your face, which is actually true from what ive seen and it makes my forehead look flat. lol

your best bet honestly is go to a stylist and just tell her that you want a new dew and tell her you’re going with whatever she recommends. Thats there job and they should be able to help out a lot.

Well it’s not their personality is it? Because ultimately you choose the style from the possibilities you’ve given them. I got colous in my hair for the first time in 6 years last week. And I wouldn’t say it was someone else’s style just because a hairdresses suggested some colour.
Why don’t you just leave it alone altogether

Because it helps distract me and relax me with shallow things because im a very deep person actually and have a lot to worry about right now and think focusing on something rediculous will help eas my mind haha
