Posted: 06/20/05 - 17:12 Post subject: trim, medium, or short
my hairs are getting long......what to do???
I'm wanting to go short, short for convenience, I look best in chin length, past my shoulders, it looks scraggy but I likes the long pony when running.
what to do?????? I gots 'til Thursday.
Bryce says "not short, it makes you look evil" .....hmm compelling

i'd say go with what makes you comfy

I hacked off my hair a month ago and it can't grow fast enough. I hate not being able to easily put it in a pony and while now it is at least long enough to pull back, I still need a do-rag and some clips for another few weeks So, my vote goes for "trim".

I perfectly understand, I've been there....although that "can't pull back yet hair on the neck" length looks good on me when I'm cleaned up....but it looks silly when I pull it back for running. (think spout....I have a clip I could provide, but I supply enough BAD running pics on this site)

preach it. Its a cute little cut, (when fixed) it looks cute on me too. But you know Texas summer, I just wish I could pull this back when I walk home, etc. Its JUST at the point where I kind of can pull it back then put the rest behind my ears. But for running, if I don't wear the gangsta do-rag or a hot hot hat I get hairs stuck all over my schweaty face. makes. me. crazy.

My non running sister: cute sassy short short hair that takes her 5 minutes to fix, and by "fix" I mean rub some pomade around until it all stands on end and she looks like a supermodel.
pffff however: fat face, natural curls. can't do short. where is the justice?

but I'm past the barette, clips stage....no bangs.....I yank my hair back so tight on race day, it's like an instant face lift. I'm frightened to go to bangs .
wonder what the best look is for someone with a micro head?

I like to keep mine as short as I can possibly get it, and still have a ponytail. Short hair looks completly ridiculous on me. I got wedding pictures to prove it.

My sister doesn't dry hers either. Just swirls it around messy like. And this is the end result. I hate her.
she'd beat me for this...

TRIM.
That's what I always do, except I went in two weeks ago and had inches cut off my hair. It was very long though and those were needed inches.

The "evil" look could come in handy on race day - intimidate your opponents into submission. Other that that, I have no meaningful contribution to a hair thread.

Is your hair pretty straight? I can't give advice on that. I keep getting mine progessively shorter, because 1) it won't grow long anymore 2) the curl does whatever it wants anyways.
I've had the messy hair look for years now.
