Rochester, don't wait a second longer and get that haircut!!! Stop thinking that nonsense about not deserving it. You are deserve it just like anybody else. It is important to feel good about oneself, regardless of weight.

I love Winona's hair but I am afraid her cute face has a lot to do with the fact that she looks so terrific no matter how her hair is styled. Unfortunately, my hair (even with gloppy gel etc.) won't hold the spiky look, unless my stylist does it. But that's fine, I adjusted.

I have always loved asymmetrical haircuts and I used to have a very fancy one myself when I was around 30. The one that I would like to have, but I am not sure if I can (because my hair is so fine and I sweat like a pig when I exercise) is the hair of Ali Vincent's (the winner of The Biggest Loser, season 5) mom. I would DIE for hair like that. Her hair is quite coarse, you can tell (I have better pics at home, but this is the only one I could quickly find).

Oh wow! That's so cute! I wish I had the balls to cut my hair like that. You seriously look really awesome with that hair cut.

Mulder-The bangs are especially flattering on you!

Rochester-Add me to the "get it cut now" camp! You deserve it!

I am going to try to get a pic of my hair and post it here. I am liking it better. I don't have a flat iron, and I kind of like the way it is looking with my natural wave. Still not sure about the front, I combed it back more.

Annie it took me a while to get used to my hair and even longer to figure out what to do with it, of course, my idea of 'hair care' is combing, and I refuse to do much more than that, I finally found that a combo, read: build-up, of mousse and hairspray get my fine, thin hair to fluff on top. Running my fingers though from bottom to top doesn't hurt either. :dizzy:

Oh my goodness...wow! :lol: Thanks for all the encouragement! I might compromise and get a cute-for-now cut and save that stellar do for goal weight.

@Tomato - I love the haircut of the woman on the right in the photo! Is that the one you were referring to?

@Patchwork - Have you ever tried root booster? Garnier makes one that works fantastic and is a lot cheaper than the salon brands. A few spritzes of that, a few secs with a blow dryer, and...vavoom!

@Wannabe - Winana Ryder is SO hot and she always has the sexist hair! :)

I have naturally curly hair, but am fascinated with pixie cuts....but I know I'm not going to mess with straightenning it, and it can look like an afro otherwise. I have it longer in the front, the back is short- like boy cut short. I love it, and I also have utmost trust in my stylist. I get compliments on it from people I've never met and I don't have to do anything with it.... ppl often ask me what my husband thinks about it, like how dare I consider short hair because 'men don't like short hair', he's not the one who has to deal with it! When it was longer, people suspected we had a dog because of the hair on my clothes....no, it was mine.

I say go for it, but find a good stylist who isn't going to cut it just because you want it cut. I'd love the Posh Spice thing, but I also don't have the petite features she does. I have found there is a short hair do for everyone....it's just a matter of finding it

Optical Goddess - that is hilarious about 'men not liking short hair' because my husband's reaction was amazing... I can't go into details but yeah :)

See, its that blow dryer thing. I think I have tried that, but I appreciate the suggestion. :D

Haha... I'm actually aiming for the opposite. At my highest weight (probably around 220... didn't actually weigh), I cut my hair short. I'm now wanting to grow it out... to have it be gorgeous long hair by the time I'm down to 140. :D

When I first moved to IL my hair was to the middle of my back, and it's gotten progressively shorter. I didn't want the same hair I had when I was 21, which was the same that I had in high school. My husband is rather indifferent to my various hair styles. The only thing he says is that he doesn't want it to look like a 'shrubbery', i.e. an afro. I tried a pixie many years ago and it turned into an afro, or would be too short to even curl, like quite butch... otherwise he's okay with my hair.Not swept away by it, but then again, he's never had an emotional reaction to my hair

Thanks for all the compliments!

i decided to get a pixie cut for my birthday kind of like carey mulligan's, and i don't regret it one bit. http://www.short-hair-styles-magazin...EPTEMBER25.jpg

i'm thinking of razoring half off though

Yes, Betty Sue is on the right, she is Ali Vincent's (on the left) mom. Ali is a hairdresser so I always suspected that the haircut got created by her hands, but I don't know for sure.

Do NOT save it for your goal weight! Do it now! You so deserve to feel great right now. Like my girlfriends try to pressure me into doing something, can you hear them? DOOoo IT! Hairstyles change from season to season. Why not have the very latest do when it's super trendy? Don't wait.

I usually wear my hair chin length because it's the most flattering on me. Right now I'm alot blonder than my avatar. :cool:

I actually get what Rochester is saying. I am getting my hair styled soon, just layers, but when I reach goal weight I want a special haircut. I'm also going to buy a fabulous outfit, get a mani/pedi, and just celebrate by going out to the city to my first ever club visit.

I'm not waiting because I think I don't deserve it now, I just want to save it for the final reveal. ;)
