Long to short

Gosh, my nose looks enormous on that photo!

Getting fed up of all this hair ? at my age (68)

My hair has been very short as long as I can remember. I like the pixie cut too. I'm glad you like your new hairstyle HAZBEEN.

Thanks for the update Hazbeen. My cut sounds similar, it's exactly as I had it in my late twenties when I went from very long, straight hippy hair to a very short cut. Loved it then, love it now. Hope you enjoy yours. It's so easy.

You could sell your pony tail HAZBEEN? There is a company who will pay £7.00 for 25gms of hair. You could also donate it to a company who makes wigs for children and young people who have lost their hair through chemotherapy. www.littleprincesses.org.uk/donate-hair/

Well its done and I love it! It feels so much lighter on my head, I think the style (a pixie cut) will be easy to manage. I now have a plait of my hair which is about 12 inches long so I am trying to decide what to do with it.

Good Luck HAZBEEN I hope you are pleased with your new hair style.
What a kind friend to pay for your hair to be cut.
I am having my roots done tomorrow but Oh! I am so tempted to let it go grey. I will speak to my hairdresser about the easiest way to do it.........and then maybe?

I'm sure you'll love it.

Good luck with the new look! I'm sure you'll love it once you're used to it and wonder why you put up with the faff of long hair for all those years. (And, in the unlikely event of you not loving it, then you always know it will grow again).

Sounds good. Post a pic later?

Thanks ladies! I will let you know later how it all went.
Just had a lovely suprise though, my friend has just called in to give me a receipt for my hair cut. She had gone in yesterday and paid for the whole thing as a present for me!
Isnt it lovely when someone does such a kind thing for you?

Good luck, as a short hair person I am sure you will find it much easier to look after.
A friend who'd had long hair all her life decided she was fed up with it a couple years ago and had it cut short, she was very nervous about it. It knocked years off her, you don't realise how much hair can drag down your looks, and it suited her so much better and she has kept it short.

Good luck with it! I have a friend whose beautiful long hair had been her pride and joy. She decided to let it go grey and have it cut to chin level. She was very reluctant and worried. She needn't have been. She looks fabulous

Oh sending you loads of love and hugs xxx

I have shoulder length hair, and like you as soon as it's hot, on holiday or even at the gym it is tied back. I have numerous Pinterest boards with short and medium length styles but just very scared to go for the chop!!!!

I think it is because I do not like my face, and focus on my hair. You have given me the inspiration to have another think and go a tad shorter ??????????
