eleanorhurting Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Hey! I have a beauty appointment tomorrow and I want to change my hair up. Ive had dark, blondish, short, long... I've had it long and dark for a while now. Any advice would be appreciated short and dark about 2 years ago http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/94/dscn0277in.jpg/ dark and long like it is now http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/824/pelolargo.jpg/ short and blonde-ish http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/254/n121900499307893587433.jpg/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/502/yo2007.jpg/ long and blonde-ish http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/707/n121900499310236304163.jpg/
Andy_K Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Long beats short. Blonde beats dark. Long and blonde gets my vote by a mile.
dasein Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Based on those few pics, I think the dark matches your skintone and eyes better than the lighter tones, and no preference on length other than slightly prefer the shorter length pic, but that doesn't look really short.
ShannonMI Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Long beats short. Blonde beats dark. Long and blonde gets my vote by a mile. I agree. You are cute as a button, Andy. I saw your pic in a past thread. Where are you from?
Author eleanorhurting Posted December 1, 2011 Author Posted December 1, 2011 thank you im ready for a change
Author eleanorhurting Posted December 1, 2011 Author Posted December 1, 2011 maybe this is a better representation of what i mean by short http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/7/christmas2009.jpg/
ShannonMI Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 thank you im ready for a change I do like the dark on you. It suits you. Blond is nicer though. I was brunette for awhile and how I have blond highlights.
oaks Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Hey! I have a beauty appointment tomorrow and I want to change my hair up. Ive had dark, blondish, short, long... I've had it long and dark for a while now. Any advice would be appreciated How ridiculously cute. Toss a coin - you look good in all of those. You could try actually going short - I wouldn't call any of those photos 'short'.
iris219 Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 You're cute, so it doesn't really matter, but I like you best with bangs and medium length, dark hair. I say go with bangs regardless of the color or length. They make you look stylish/trendy.
Feelsgoodman Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 #2 looks best. Blonde-ish looks worst. With your facial features, long, big, dark hair is the best match IMO.
Andy_K Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 I agree. You are cute as a button, Andy. I saw your pic in a past thread. Where are you from? Exeter, in the UK. I think I'm in the minority on this board not being from the US!

I say go with bangs regardless of the color or length. They make you look stylish/trendy. I agree. You are darling. And just remember: Blondes might turn heads but brunettes are remembered.
Author eleanorhurting Posted December 1, 2011 Author Posted December 1, 2011 this is the shortest i would probably go. Its just so long right now sometimes i feel like i look frumpy. I have a heart-shaped face i dont want it to get lost in my multitude of hair. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/42/cimg2785u.jpg/ like this picture where I feel i look like a drug-overdosed frumpy junky http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/600/37903810150446077125903.jpg/
Feelsgoodman Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 You could try actually going short - I wouldn't call any of those photos 'short'. ^ don't listen to this guy
Author eleanorhurting Posted December 1, 2011 Author Posted December 1, 2011 Thank you for your opinion everyone! I'll let you know what i did and post pics
ShannonMI Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Exeter, in the UK. I think I'm in the minority on this board not being from the US! Ahhhh another British boy. Gotta love them. You are the minority for sure. You and Oaks are the only ones I know of right now.
Untouchable_Fire Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Thank you for your opinion everyone! I'll let you know what i did and post pics I liked short and dark for what it's worth. Honestly though with your face nearly any hairstyle will wind up looking good.
oaks Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 like this picture where I feel i look like a drug-overdosed frumpy junky http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/600/37903810150446077125903.jpg/ Not frumpy! But I know what you mean - it's probably too long.
carhill Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Late to this but IMO two shades up (lighter) with a light weave and leave it long, though a bit shorter than in the long brunette picture, or go shorter and shatter it a bit. I wouldn't go blonde with your eyes, brows and skin tones. I'd have to rummage around but this is close on color. My exW is a professional colorist. I'm an amateur admirer Good luck and looking forward to seeing the after pix.
dasein Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Blondes might turn heads but brunettes are remembered. I agree. There was a point in my life when it seemed every woman I dated or was around had the same very expensive blonde hair. Then was at an event one night and looked around and noticed that there was a sea of blonde hair, all the same length, all the exact same color, all extremely expensive coloring jobs. I do tend to remember brunettes in that kind of environment, maybe it's different among younger women today. No idea.
IfWishesWereHorses Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 I like the first pic, short and dark. I think the dark color looks best with your eyes. I've also always been jealous of dark haired, dark eyed girls! I know it's fun to change it up every now and then, though!
carhill Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 For length, here's what I had in mind. That's a picture of one of my female friends. I couldn't find any pix from when my exW weaved her but she looked pretty awesome weaved. She's almost 50 so give her a break on appearance.
futuregopher Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 I vote long hair and a blonder blonde. Does that make sense? lol :x
carhill Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 Here's Lindsey Lohan as a blonde and a brunette. Is the blonde the 'blonder blond' you're thinking of, or ?? Though with a short haircut, it is noticeable how the blonde hair washes out Jessica Biel's olive skin tones? IMO, on her, brunette is far more attractive, though perhaps the blonde isn't optimized.
