Looking for a new look
I just got a new corporate job (I was in retail for 4 years after college) and DH told me to go spoil myself at the salon and update my look in any way that I wanted. Problem is, I'm totally indecisive. I am open to color and cut as long as it's not blonde-blonde (I have olive skin and it looks weird. I also have dark brown hair so after a while, it turns to rust color) or really short like a bob.
Here's a picture of me:
Sorry it's a little blurry. My mom took it and she sucks at taking pictures. My bangs were originally the full-front bangs similar to Zooey Deshanel (sp?). However, they've grown out a bit so I've been pushing them to the side so I can see. My hair currently falls about one or two inches short from the middle of my back.
Thoughts?
Re: Looking for a new look
It looks like your hair is pretty straight. I always told myself if I had straight hair, I'd do the bob? where it's longer in the front - a little longer than chin length and shorter in the back. That'd be my suggestion. I'd also go darker and a lot more ahsy.
I agree with a bob. It's professional but young. Darker would look good especially with olive toned skin.
Get some good quality, key pieces of make up to use on a daily basis. Some good eye shadows or a bright lip stain. Do one or the other.
