Can I pull this hair cut off?

I am looking for 100% honesty here.  I saw this pic the other day and was immediately drawn to the cut but I'm not sure if I can pull it off.  I fear my face is too round/not long and slender enough to have it this short.

Here's the cut:

And here's a current pic of me (with the chunker) for those of you that don't know me:

    i think you can pull it off. its just hair. it'll grow back if you don't like it.

  • As much as loveeee short haircuts. I dont like that one the length has the potential for a bowl hair cut to emerge. However I want a Michele Williams pixie cut bad.

    OMG I love her hair but that's wayyyyyy to short for me to even think about right now.

    Also, I can totally rock the bowl:

  • I'm with Kernal -- it's hair, it grows back. I say go for it!
  • I think you have a similar face shape to the model.  I think it would look fine on you.

     

    I am in love with your old beach pic.  So cute!

    I think you rock the bowl well! The one thing that always holds me back from

    Short  hair is the upkeep. I'm hair lazy. 

  • Oh my gosh your LO is adorable. 

    I like that haircut...if you like your stylist (and trust him/her) you could take the photo with you and see what he/she thinks. I used to have short hair and I sometimes miss it. The only thing, is that you can't really pull it back in a bun or ponytail if you're in a hurry. I found that I always needed to style it. When I didn't have time, I'd slick it back wet with a headband and that looked good.

  • Honestly, I think you can rock it.  It'll be a huge change, but I like it!

    Also, Jack is beyond adorable, seriously.

    This. I went "short" (shoulder length) and loved it so I went shorter (almost a bob-cut) and, while I loved the way my hair looked, it took more effort to style that hair cut than it did when my hair was more than halfway down my back. I'm growing it back out now.

  • Styling it is part of what's holding me back.  But I think I would certainly save time from blow drying my hair each day (I use a round brush on my ends and bangs).  And I would think all I would need is some pomade or other product to make it piece-y.

     I wouldn't be doing this until the fall so I've got time to mull it over and talk to my stylist at my next cut.

    Thanks ladies!
