    Default should i cut it or grow it out?

    i have fine, wavy/curly hair but due to years of straightening I have a bunch of broke off pieces on the top so I have to wear it straight or it looks like a mullet. This has become SUPER annoying.

    I was thinking of doing a concave bob to cut out some time getting rady. Below is the cut, my hair when it was kinda like that (5 yrs ago) and what its like right now.

    Whats yalls advice?

    I'm assuming you're on the right.. I'd say cut it. Growing out the crappy hair is just going to give you longer, crappy hair. I'm kinda going through the same thing. I had a bad haircut and am growing it out. I have to grow it, then cut it a bit, then grow it and cut it. I just don't like super short hair on me otherwise I would have just cut it of and started over. I think the bob will look cute on you though

    I like that first hair cut.
    I have dyed my hair so many times and flat ironed it so much that it has caused quite a bit of damage... my face is not made for short hair at all so as damaged as my hair was I refused to cut it. Eventually I cut a few inches off and cut layers all over and got rid of some of the dead ends... now I use this deep hydrating stuff I got from the salon... my hair is still a little damaged but it has a looooooong way from what it used to look like.

    if short hair looks good on you I saw go for it and get rid of some of that bad hair...

    Cut it! You can get that awesome short hair cut and really take care of your hair as it grows out, making sure to give just as much repair to it for as much as you style it. Good luck!

    I think that first hair cut is really ugly. I like the second one. A lot.

    I really need to cut mine too. I have a lot of dead on the ends, but my hair is almost to my butt, so it won;t be that drastic. I have cut like a foot off and went short and it was really fun and EASY. I kindda miss it.

    Would you have to straighten your hair alot if you got the first cut?

    That's a sexy cut. I did it today for a young lady and it looked great on her. I think you should definately get the ends trimmed either by getting layers or taking all the length up to your shortest broken off piece. If you get layers you can still let it grow out. Think about it and make sure it's what you want before you go to the salon.

    Actually after looking at your last picture I think a graduated concave bob would look incredible on you with your jawline and facial features. With a graduated concave bob it's basically like the first picture only stacked up in the back. Here's a pic of Victoria Beckham's g-bob.

    I think thats cute^ but the first pic is TOO long in the front. The 6 people in my living room all thought the first pic was ugly too (boys and girls).

    Do the victoria one.

    i would have to straighten just as much, but it would cut down my time getting ready.

    i really like the posh cut a lot! but im scared to go that short with it... maybe a longer version, thats not so extreme as the first picture?

    You could try the longer version and if you don't like it you can shorten it. Its hard to cut off hair so doing it in stage might ease the hair loss pain.

    What do you use for straightening?

    umumumum paul mitchell hair straightner, and i spray my hair with some bumble and bumble crap before I straighten.

    I really dislike this straightner. I used to have a solia and it was AWESOME. folica.com rates it as #1 (or atlest they used to)

    I know this isn't all about straighteners, but I just wanted to give my two cents since it seems straightening your hair is a big part of your life as with mine lol.

    I had the Solia, purchased from folica.com too... it was ok, got the job done. When that broke, I decided to go for the Chi, which I LOVE, minus the fact that it's prone to breaking every 9 months... but folica.com's good about sending a new one & you only have to pay for shipping.

    & About your haircuts, I like the Vicky Beckham look. Not many woman can pull this off, but you definitly have the face for it.

    The only negative thing about this haircut is if you ever wear fake hair when you dance & whatnot. I don't know if you ever wear extensions or not, but these kind of haircuts aren't ideal for extensions as they don't blend well.

    what kind of chi do you have? that was the first one I ever had but didn't like the fact you couldn't change the temp. I think they have new ones now where you can, is this the kind you have?

    I agree. The first cut is hot and looked great on you. I say def cut your hair, and have it like you did in the first picture. I would get my hair done like that but I have grown it out so long that I am going to let it stay long. I would hate myself if I cut it again.
