I need some help! I cut my hair about a month ago. I am loving it short... but I think I want to go shorter. Or should I let it grow again? I don't have the best picture of my hair short.. I also think it makes me look like a 10 year old with it short. But it's so much easier to fix and manage short. What do you think? I am thinking I want it cut a lot shorter in the back, similar to Posh Spice. I think it's called a stacked bob? Let me know what you think I should do and feel free to post some pics of suggestions!! I appreciate your help!!

All the pics are basically the same style - just a diff. in length.
I think the stacked bob would be a good idea - probably about chin length or a little longer.  I would also go shorter with the bangs - you could still get them cut to blend into the sides.
You don't look like a 10 yr. old boy in any of your pics!

I Would do it with out a doubt. You have the neck line for a stacked / gradiated bob. Have your stylist take it short in the nape and blend the side into it. The bangs are fine. Leave length to tuck behind the ears if desierd. You will look greater!!!!!

Of these 3 pictures I think the first one fits your personality best and I also think it looks the best as well. The simple bob in the 3rd picture just doesn't seem to fit your image at all.
 
I see you with more of a fun hairstyle that has alot of flair and a more daring style that you could easily pull off. Something like this....
 
Although your hair does look great long but a style like I've just posted would look great too and you could pull it off.
 
You definately want something that shows texture in the hair.....it would suit you well.

I agree with mikecuts suggestion; I too think that you'll look awesome with a graduated bob.

I agree go for the Pob (Posh Bob).
 
Short at the back and stack it high.  I think you will look younger with it shorter Wink

Here's a great site for inverted bobs:
 
 
After the page loads, scroll down towards the bottom, click on the big rectangle, wait for the images to load and then click on a style on the left to display in the middle.  The bad thing about this site is that I haven't figured out how to download the pictures but there are numerous variations.  I think there are a total of four galleries.  Have fun!!!  Let us know what you decide.

Thanks for all of your suggestions! I'm trying to find the perfect picture, and then I'll get my appt. Here are some I found on the internet that I like:
 
#1
I really like this one a lot! Just kinda hard to see the back since her hair is darker.
 
#2
Here's the back of another cut I found.. I don't like how thick it looks though.
 
I really need a good picture of the BACK VIEW.. hard to find! Let me know what yall think!

What's up...I think you would look great with the type of style that Victoria Beckham has, you already look hot with your current style but could totally pull this look off.  Let me know what you think.

Lemonlime,

This cut would look wonderfull on you. Have a look at the link it's worth it. Just have the sides cut to blend into your bangs if they are not that  long. I would not have the bangs cut any shorter than needed. I still love the tuck behind the ears. If not you will have them in your eyes all the time. You have nice facial features. Don't hide them. Keep me posted.
Mike

i honestly think that short hair would not suit you at all i think it would look great if you had your hair like in the 2nd pic. Youre reall pretty, you could pull it of perfectly

Curlyred,
Natural curly hair is easier to cut but care should be taken not to hold too much tension on the hair when cutting. It also is easier to hide mistakes! Poker straight hair needs to be perfect in the lines desired. I can't say that this is not taught in schools today. I would just be very positive and reinforce the style that you wish. Not knowing your length it's hard to say how to cut and style it. Maybe a picture or let us know more about it.

Thanks everyone for yall comments, suggestions, and pictures! I'm so glad I found this message board! I will be making an appointment in the next 2-3 weeks, so I'll be sure to post pictures.. I just saw Victoria Beckham's new hair... I'm loving it. But I'm a little scared to go THAT short.
 
I found this one of her on another topic:
I'm thinking I'm going to go with this one.. I want the front to be a little shorter so it's more even.. or should I leave the front longer like hers??
 
I'm getting kinda nervous to go THIS short in the back.. I love the haircut on others, but I'm just scared to see it on me!! I am not liking the length of mine now.. it hangs on my neck and flips out.
 
Let me know if yall have more pics of her haircut.. I wish I was brave enough to go even shorter like her most recent cut.. maybe eventually!

My wife got hers cut like that and hate the front being longer than the back.  She and i both called them "dog ears"  She loves the length of this cut, but is wanting to go shorter in the back.  You have the features to pull this off, so go for it!  Its smoke'n hot!
 
You can go to photorazzi.com and bruno press, they all have good picks.

Conrad, Unfortunately i do not have a picture of the other side of the blonde hair about, but i might have another picture that will do.

Also that is not Poshs latest style. She has just gone blonde and shorter at the back. Check out the link
Then click on the link for Poshs Golden Locks.
