New hair style advice - new colour maybe?

This is the first time i%26#039;ve asked a question!!





Basically, at the moment - I have brunette hair, with bits of blonde in it - though it is growing out quite quick. It is now about 3%26quot; below my shoulders. I have quite a pale skin tone, with blue eyes.





My Boyfriend has suggested I have a new hair style to get over a painful couple of months, the start of a new me maybe! .. But i don%26#039;t know WHO to ask for advice.. I don%26#039;t trust my mothers advice lol.





I dont mind having a frindge - not got one at the moment. It has to be slightly presentable within 10 minutes of getting up i nthe morning, but have the ability to spend ages and look amazing for nights out! ... also i have a budget of 5.00 per normal week (can invest 50.00 initally) on keeping it up!
New hair style advice - new colour maybe?
Having a new style that suits you depends on a lot of things, the condition of your hair, your face shape, how much time to have to do it in the morning etc. I couldn%26#039;t really advise you without seeing and feeling your hair.





The best person to ask is a professional and talented hairdresser. If you know one you can trust then go to them. If not then stop a person you see in the the street who has lovely styled hair and ask them where it was done and the name of the individual hairdresser. Most people will be flattered and be happy to tell you. If not then ask someone else. If you can%26#039;t do this then make an appointment with a reputable chain like Tony and Guy. Even if you have to pay a lot for this first appointment it will be worth it because then you can go to a cheaper salon next time and ask them to replicate the cut.





Make an appointment to see the hairdresser and specifiy that you need a restyle. Tell the hairdresser everything you can think of, whta you%26#039;re willing to do and what you aren%26#039;t and ask them to advise what the best style and cut will be for you. Trust their judgement, (unless they advise something super radical).





Once it%26#039;s cut well it%26#039;s will be much easier to maintain, style and also to get cut the next time. Invest some time and money now and it will be easy and cheaper in future. Good luck!

Reply:do layers around your face..go a deep red with blonde highlights or do blonde highlights and black lowlights with the color you already have
Reply:Red! Side bangs, choppy sholder length with hidden layers





looks good on anyone, cute up or straight or curly





use aveda serum and hair straightener for up-keep
Reply:Try to get a pro haircutter to cut your hair , so its like you have bangs. If I were u I would try to put them to the side. A lot of celebrities have their hair like that. Side bangs are the latest style. Its cool that you have brown hair, so do I . I%26#039;ve always wanted blonde highlights, kinda like u have little bits. Maybe you could get highlights. I think that would be really cute
Reply:Dont go red as it fades tooooo quickly! up don%26#039;t need the up keep! i agree with Petra go and see a good hairdresser but don%26#039;t let them go crazy and ask for a practical style which doesn%26#039;t need constant re styling as it grows!!


good luck honey!
Reply:Go for layers keep the brown and add some golden tones as fine highlights
Reply:My little girl has a CD-ROM that lets you upload your photo and then you can change your hair styles and see what you look like. They have loads of hairstyles/colours etc to choose from.





Bless her she never gets to play with it as I am always playing with it!!

Have fun and good luck with the new you!!

Reply:I may not be the age of some of you great ladies, but one thing we learn at school is how to look beautilicious - you wont believe how many of us Year 11s are in the toilets using curlers and straighteners before school!





Well, first, I don%26#039;t think bangs are gonna work out for your long hair. If the blonde is going, I say put it back in well some maroon and rad shades, but don%26#039;t go crazy or you%26#039;ll look like a freak!!!





Then, yeah defo a fringe totally. But get it to curve out, dont get a dead straight one!





And layer it to get that perfect look!





Hope it helps - u deserve great hair

Reply:maybe blonde
Reply:Erm, well i guess blonde could be good, but thats more summer time and we are still in winter.


Maybe you could try feathering you%26#039;re hair but a fringe sounds cool!





Good Luck!
Reply:I think i would go with the idea of your boyfriends, the concave bob, its a little longer at the front than the back, it looks really nice too, you wont need products to keep it styled either. If your looking for colour, i would stay away from the blonde, perhaps add a little red , purple or even blue to the underneath, that Way you won%26#039;t see the roots when it starts to grow out, plus those sorts of colours are all the rage at the moment, everyone that comes into our salon are having jazzy colours and different styles of the bob....
