pixie cuts are cute too, I used to have a pixieish cut real short n spikey in the back and in the front i had longer choppier hair that i could style with barettes n such.

I think you should get the bob would be hella cute on you. :smile2:

Cute cute cute!! My hair is one thing I wanna change when I start loosing weight. Right now it's down to my bra on my back. Dh HATES short hair on me, so that isn't really an option. I think I'm gonna get it layed and change the color though (I'm sure it won't be long till the gray hair starts showing up anyway).

Okay gals you're gonna hate my advice:

I never NEVER advise anyone to go drastic the first time. I have seen way too many girls burst into tears in the shop and ruin their self image because I or another co worker gave them what they asked/INSISTED on getting.:smile2: If you have reaffirmed time and time again that you like how your face, chin forehead looks emphasized, then I say you are ready for the razor. I usually advise shoulder length, then in a month come back in...it is the shoulder and above that seems to freak people out the most. Getting any over the ear cut is drastic too...I say try a spunky choppy layered cut, try a brilliant red, or sexy chocolate...colors do wonders. I can't imagine my hair being any other shade than red...had it for over 15 years now. The inverted or asymmetrical cuts like the modernized wedge with longer lengths in front are all the rage...you can still keep your length in the front for security.. :Angel_anim:

I will say this...if you go drastic and love it...80% of the time, you never go back long again. It is too damn easy to manage. I am a pixie now...it is fab! I don't care about my face shape...my hubby loves it too. I have the crazy rooster/ducks ass neckline...so it sweeps into the center.

Hey April! I've had short hair before - a lot shorter than it is now. I was ready to go even shorter than she cut it this time. She was the one that was unsure. After I had my first daughter my hair was mid back and I cut it almost pixie and loved it! I kept it that way for a few years and decided two years ago I wanted to grow it out again. I've now decided short is for me. Not that I didn't love my hair long - it just stayed in a ponytail more than I wore it down. I can't stand it to be in my face. I think hair dressers can tell when a client comes in and just doesn't know what they want...that's when you shouldn't cut it. I was so ready! I love it!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
