    Question Bored with my hair

    OK ladies, hope you can help with suggestions. I have long (almost to my waist) wavy, dark brown hair. I love my hair....its very healthy, shiny and easy to take care of. The problem is, I've had it the same way since college. thats about 3 years. I don't want anything drastic like a short cut or dyed a crazy color (am willing to add color though) and bangs looks really bad on me (been there a few times) but i'm bored to tears with my hair. Also, I'm super lazy. I straighten it every now and then and curl it only for special occasions although I think it looks best when curled. I'm looking to get it cut/changed somehow before the new year. I have a heart shaped face and light olive skin so something that goes well with that please thanks!

    look on websites like allure.com or style.com or any magazine website. They usually all have a beauty section that has new haircuts that are in style for different shaped faces and different textures of hair. Also look in magazines or online for pictures of great hair with a similar shaped face.
    Only she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossible.

    Hey,

    I know exactly what you are talking about as I’m in the same boat as you…
    I have dark brown hair just about waist length. I had it long like that since college as well (I wish that was only 3yrs ago hehe), but last year I cut it a lot shorter that usual and regretted it for quite some time until it grew back, and I know you wrote that you didn’t want anything dramatic.
    My advice to you is, check out some vids on different hairstyles and play around. It’s amazing what bobby pins alone and some imagination can do!
    I like these two sisters on YouTube that make hairstyling videos. Check it out, and let me know what you think.

    This is their channel.
    I hope this helps, I think they are awesome and they have some pretty simple and creative ideas.

    Cheers!

    I totally suggest ombre highlights for you!! You described your hair and that's what came to mind immediately. Google it!

    I turned my hair ombre too. It's naturally blonde but I dye it dark and it's down to my hips. Since the color change happens lower down, you don't have to worry about how it looks with your usual makeup or anything. Everyone says they like mine a lot and it looks good with curls and everything. Do it!
