Hey everyone! I just wanted to get your opinion on a new look. Hal did a simulation for me. I'm really considering doing this but would like to get some feedback on the look. I'd have to let my bangs grow some for the new look. They're about 3/4" longer now then they are in my picture from a month ago.

Thanks!
Becky

Wow Becky!

That looks amazing! I think the cut and color look awesome on you. It's hard to believe that's a sim.

When are you going to do this gorgeous style, and will you take lots of before and after pics?

I don't think you'd have to grow your bangs, they'd look great as they are with your new style.

You're absolutely beautiful as you are, but oh my...I say yes!

Please keep us posted. :)

Wow. The simulated cut looks incredible in the picture.

I don't know if your bangs wouldn't look as good with it. You could try it with your bangs as they are now, and if they don't look right, you can use product to blend them in while they grow out.

Thanks guys!! I appreciate all the positive responses. I'm going to go to a stylist tomorrow for a consultation. I want to see if he thinks my hair texture is right for the cut, plus get his opinion on going that light. I'm really excited because he was trained by Paul Mitchell to do 3 dimensional color.

I'll keep you posted on what I decide to do... and definately pics!

Wow number 1- You look great - I think you could wear that style with how the bangs were in the 1st pic. You could always grow them out if you don't like it. but don't wait to get the other part cut and colored- it is perfect for you.

Wow number 2 - that is an awesome simulation. How was that done?

loveshort&blonde - I did it with Photo Shop. It was pretty easy since the face structure and colors were so simular. If I do say so myself, it's a perfect fit. Style and color, I think that is why it came out so well.

Anyone else want to see how they may look?

Might be a bit of a hassle to get and keep your hair that light, but even if you didn't go that light, it would look just as good in brown or red. It really as an adorable style.

I like the new style you picked. I think you would even look better in that style if you kept your beautiful dark hair color. That would look even more pretty and natural on you.
You have such beautiful big brown eyes and just a beautiful face that you really have the features to wear even a much shorter hairstyle and look stunning, like an Alyssa Milano pixie would look great on you!

You look beautiful both ways, but I think the color and cut on the sim really flatters you!

Just wanted to let you guys know that I have an appointment tomorrow to get the cut... but not the color. It takes 3 hrs to do the color and I don't have time for that right now. So I'm going to discuss colors with him when he cuts my hair. I'll be sure to post a pic next week for you all to see. Thanks everyone for the kind words and support! I appreciate it.

Becky- I was really taken back at how different you looked in the second style....Very sexy and bold. I guess if the look better reflects your personality, you should wear it!! I hope the stylist is able to copy the cut.

Show us pics!

Ok... I did get it cut about 2 weeks ago. I didn't go as short as the sim and I didn't go with the color (at least yet). My husband was really against both cut and color, but more so color. Anyway, here's a link that has the sim, front shot, and back shot. Please keep in mind that these were self taken pics, so they're not great.

Becky, the cut looks great on you. You could definitely pull off the shorter cut and color, but why upset your husband when this longer 'do looks so good?

It looks nice, but IMO a little shorter and blonder would be awesome!

Blonde bombshell comes to mind. What do you think?

My two cents.
