Remember the Hairstyles I Showed You?

Finally, I went and got my hair styled and cut.  I did that about a month ago.  I loved the stylist and the hairstyle [which I had pictures of], but decided that the next time, I would have it cut even a bit shorter.  Well, today was "next time".  And it is shorter.  Just to refresh our memories, I'll share a few of the styles I was choosing from and then show you what I look like today!!

It was really difficult deciding on a "look" and I didn't have the time to even make an appointment until last month.

This is the style I chose last month - not too long and not too short...just right.

But, today I got a bit bolder!  Look...here's the cut I got today!!

OK...not totally.  I didn't get my hair colored like the picture shows.  And the sides aren't quite as short...And....

Well, here's what it looks like today!

Quite a difference from when I first had Bell's Palsy in 2014, isn't it?  I can certainly see the weight loss in my face...and how everything works so well!!

Hairstyles - More To Consider

Would you believe it?  I still haven't gone and gotten my hair cut.  What I did do, is only trim the longer, shaggier parts around my ears.  That helped considerably.  I hate it when my hair starts growing long around my ears or my bangs grow out too long but, they are the two parts that are easiest for me to trim.  I have always loved having my hair short.  It's thick and coarse...and has lots of body...some wave...and little curl.  In the interim, with all the business I've been tending to around here...I did find several more hair styles!  The first one's my favorite.  I could see me in any of theseand you'll be the first to know when I do get my hair cut...

and styled.  For the time being, I'm still trying to figure out for sure, just which cut will be the one.  And I'm working on my very long and cumbersome To Do List...so it may be a while.

  

More Do's for My "Do" List

Busy with so many other things, I just haven't decided on a New "Do"...and besides that, I've found several more.  If you haven't seen the photos I've shown of New "Do's", in my other posts, you can find them Here and Here.  These are the NEW photos I found...I'm liking the tiny bit longer version of the Pixie Cut, too!!

UPDATE:  still a month later and only a trim has been done on my hair...by myself.  I am really a chicken when it comes to going to someone else to have them...

cut my hair.

Didn't Get My "Do" Yet - Still Looking

Although far from my haircolor, I love this Pixie Style Hairstyle.  The Pixie is for me...now to just narrow it down to a couple, to show a stylist...or to go on when I cut my own hair.  Since I don't have a specific reason to get my hair cut at this time, there is really no rush...so this could take a while.   It's been over 8 years since I've been to a hairstylist and that time, she butchered me.  I mean, where bangs and sides frame the face...she cut my bangs way too short so it looked like a V was chopped into the sides at the temples.  I'd been going to herfor about 2 years when she did that...

 and I just resumed cutting my own hair.  It's cheaper, quicker and easier sometimes.  If I just knew someone who was getting their hair cut in a Pixie style and was going to a shop around me...I might feel more comfortable.

I sort of like this...with the tad longer sides...but it looks like too much hair to me.

I have noticed that alot of Pixie Cuts are combed up from the back, like where a collick would be.  I can't decide if I like that look.  But, I do like this shorter bangs, longer sides, windswept look. 

Another reason for hesitation at going and getting my hair cut, with shorter bangs is I have no eyebrows of my own.  When I was 21 or so, I had a non-cancerous lemon size tumor removed from my thyroid gland, which took a while to even be diagnosed.  During that time - about 6 weeks, I gained 30 pounds, lost my eyebrows and eyelashes and alot of my hair...and lots of unpleasant things from an almost inactive thyroid gland.  While my hair is thick now and my eyelashes have grown back in [not as thick as previously], my eyebrows never grew back in.  I have several stray hairs, but nothing that even comes close to resembling an eyebrow.  I've tried many products over the years to add eyelashes to my face...but some of them make me look ridiculous.  Some aren't so bad and don't look too bad with a longer bang line.  But, I'm getting tired of that look.

Today, I purchased a new Eyebrow Crayon from Maybelline.  It really doesn't look too bad and goes on rather easy too.  Problem with it is, it wipes off easy too.  So, if I accidentally touch my face near my eyebrow, say to scratch an itch...I could be mono-eyebrow.  I wouldn't like that.  I'm going to try something else with it, to see if it works tomorrow.  This is the item I purchased - at Walgreens for $8.49.  Thanks for stopping by!!

I Need a New "Do"...

Since I've been looking for a different way to cut and style my hair, I thought I'd share some Hairstyles I've found.  I've almost always had very short hair.  I feel I look best with that sort of cut.  Over the next several weeks [or more?], I will show you a variety of styles that I like.  I guarantee you there will be nothing outrageous - as a matter of fact, the pictures I choose will more than likely have several things in common with one another.  The color of the hair doesn't always reflect my "color".

Today I have a couple of Short Hairstyles - #1...This one is OK.

2.  I like short, cut around the ears [yes, even in winter], with wisps of bangs.  I need height on top and softness all over.  I don't want a hairstyle that looks to angled or too masculine.

3.  This looks attractive on her too.

4.  This is very nice...I like a little fullness to the sides...especially in the sideburn area.  Glasses wreak havoc with skinny little sideburns.  They tend to get flattened and then they curl up!  Awful!  I know, because it's happened to me.

5.  Nice...but not for my hair.  I have a bit of curl/wave and thick hair.

I'd have to say #2 and #4 are my favorites...in Very short Hairstyles.

How about you.  Do you wear your hair short or long...or somewhere in between?  Is your hair curly, wavy or straight?

I'll be back with more styles next week...and maybe even some new colors!!
