I don't know why my hair is so curly. All my life it was straight. In my early 20s I got a couple perms and now I am left looking like Mr. Kotter

Most hairstyles are not permanent. I say that you should give it a try for a while. I think it looks great and super fun--something us older gals need once we hit "a certain age".

I like it, too! When you said "asymetrical bob", I was thinking that it was going to be really dramatic but I think that it's just asymetrical enough to be age-appropriately hip. I think it's cute and you should give it a try; you can always have it evened up later if you like.

The girl who does my hair is only 27 (I am 48). I give her parameters to work within, and other than that, she has free reign. I do it that way on purpose because I don't KNOW what's current so she keeps me from looking like a little old lady (hopefully). I think it's great that you've got a fresh, young lady cutting your hair and she did a good job!

losermom, dragonwoman, & Windchime - thanks for sharing your thoughts. I DO tend to get stuck in a rut with my hair and my glasses. One of my goals this year was to update my look while still being age-appropriate.

Which leads me to Gary's comment -

if you're feeling uncomfortable, or like its age inappropriate, just get the other side cut so its not asymmetrical.

do whatever feels comfortable to you!

I think it looks very cute on you! I agree that you'll look very 'hip' at school and the kids will love it--the girls anyway, you know boys-they don't notice things like hairstyles! I think you look great
