Sexy short hair!
I have been envious of short hair for a long time but for most of my morbid obesity, my hair was shoulder length as I didn't think I'd look good with short hair. I was feeling good about myself so I decided to cut my hair shorter than I've ever cut it and I LOVE it!!
You won't believe all the compliments and people are coming up to me saying "wow you've lost a lot of weight". I've recently lost 10 lbs that were sticking on me but other than that, I've stayed the same for the last 2 years.
The thing I've noticed is my neck looks a lot thinner and longer and my collarbones are really popping. My husband also definitely approves.
Anyway, while looking for hair cuts, I ran into some awesomely sexy short hair cuts. I was considering going with something like this but the stylist said I'd have to be willing to devote some time in the morning to it but uhh yeah I decided I'd wait a while :
Anyway, what are your favorite shortish hair styles?!

I love short hair. My hair is naturally curly and I hate it. I usually keep it to my waist but last year cut it pretty short and have kept it there. But I have no style to it. It make me look older than I am. I need to look and find me a GOOD style. Thanks this will give me something to do this afternnon. Look for me a new do

I had very short hair or the last few years and am growing it longer now, for a change. I love short hair. I think a side part with the bangs getting longer to one side, then very short in the back is very sophisticated, especially with dark hair.
I also love asymmetircial hair!

You should shop around and find a stylists who knows how to cut curly hair which can be tricky. You might call salons near you and ask if they have someone who is especially good at it.

I had long hair but I just coldn't take care of it when I broke my shoulder so had it cut (trauma !) and had a perm, I don't like it and am condidering going into a shop and having it cut and styled. That makes me nervous, too.

Here is a pic I took to my stylist yesterday. After she got done styling it, it looked alot like the image. When I styled it this morning.....not so much. I love the length, but not sure about the style, esp. the long in front part. I'll mess with it and see how I get to liking it.

Three years ago I had hair down past my butt, and thought I'd never get it cut. Eventually I did, going up and down in length, settling on a pixie type cut, short in back and around my ears but getting fluffy on top. My hair is straight so the best I can hope for is fluff, no curl.
check my profile picture for my hair, but I'll see if I can dredge up a mugshot. When I like a certain look my hair gets I take a mugshot, and take that to my stylist so she knows how I like my hair, so I get the same look again.

My hair has been every possible length, from almost-to-my-waist to butch-short. The last haircut that I had that I really liked was nearly 2 years ago. I had this horrible moment of thinking that I was too fat to deserve pretty hair. I've just been hacking away at it myself ever since. It looks pretty awful.
This is the haircut that I want to get, at some point. Maybe goal weight? Maybe before?

I had enough of my long hair. I was going to wait until I lost more weight, but said "forget it! I'm chopping it off now. I had enought ( 12") and donated it to Locks of Love. I actually got it got 2x. The first cut wasn't what I really wanted, it's what the stylist wanted. He convinced me ( temporarily) that my face was too round to pull it off. I then went and got it re-cut the next day with someone else. She listened to me and agreed that I could pull it off. I guess the 100 or so people who have complimented me agree!
I say, why wait, chop it off.
Here's a couple of pictures The first one (blonde) was what I was aiming for, the next one is me with longer hair, and the next 2 are me with the short hair.

I guess it's just that I want the glamorous new do to be part of the beautiful new me. I want it to be part of the whole transformation.
@Mulder - I can't believe how much that hair style changed your whole look! Fantastic.

Rochester, I see your point, but I don't feel you should have to wait until you lose some more weight to start the transformation. Start now.
Mulder, I will admit to total ignorance of who the blone is, but her hairstyle looks good on you. And you have a very cute dog.
