    Angry Hair Rant

    I am so tired of my hair right now. I dont have my extensions in anymore because they itch and make my head hot. So now I have short hair barely over my shoulders. I mean its cute just not for the SC. My head sweats and makes my hair wavy and un-cute. Being half black and half white I only have a few choices: wear a clip in fall, more braided to my head extensions, clip in extensions (which might not look cute after all my head sweating) or just leave it. Im so tired of finding hair solutions all my life. This is all I have left... Any other mixed chics out there that can sympathize?

    Hmmm, looking at your hair in the first pic, I can totally picture you in a bob (thinking Kelis I'm bossy lol) Do you have a problem wearing short hair in the club? I think it would look hot!!!

    I am having the same problem. I think your hair looks cute short. You are just use to the extensions. In had long Paris Hilton like extensions and I took them out and have hair your length. I use the clip in extensions now, they work fine for me. Good luck

    I think a bob would look great too! But then again I'm only a white chick.

    I like the bob. I'm not mixed and my hair is naturally pretty long and I have no experience with hair extensions. Sorry, but I think you look adorable as is!!!

    get an a line! its a little shorter in the back so itll help with the sweating making your hair wiggly, its cute and you can add extensions to it if you get a longer one. check out these:

    ^^ i love love love your avator.

    I think the current style you have is hot. I had shorter hair before getting my extenions and did actually pretty well. Honestly as weird as it sounds., I always got the " you have a classic look" I think I might have been more approachable. Hell at this point with my extensions rather than straightening and than setting them., i've been leaving them wavy to match my real hair that shows., and i get approached way more.

    at any rate.

    On the extension side, can you do great lengths or fusion ? That is what I have., and truly only the first month it sorta itched a bit but once my hair got use to it and the bonds slipped down a bit it wasn't so bad.

    A black dancer friend of mine had a long straight weave because she was convinced custies wanted "The Fantasy Girl" look....but you're on the West Coast where a short modern bob would still be sexy (the rest of the US seems to have old-fashioned ideas about women's hair.)
    I'm putting henna in my hair today- does African-American hair "take" henna? (I have a Indian-Jewfro I have to start flatironing & the henna will coat the hair shafts...) I'm curious...

    I was going to suggest an A-line too (although I only heard it called a V-cut). That link is a good one; I think this one in particular would look best on you.

    I think it's super-hot the way it is, maybe take off two inches which will give it a bit of extra flair . . . the cuts the other posters have suggested all rock.

    As a dancer with short hair myself (cut to about my ears) and an alternative gothy look, I used to wear extensions; I no longer do. When I work at clubs where more mainstream guys frequent, I find that overall, fewer people tip me on stage than tip the other dancers, but I also seem to get quirky older guys totally hooked on me a bit more often -- men who are looking for a "real girl" often like my short hair and my sense of humor, and buy dances.

    I'm wondering how I'll do when I go to a mohawk. I'm really starting to get determined to do this REGARDLESS of what anyone thinks, because it's my damn head and I'm stubborn like that. =) (Hey, if it totally sucks, I can wear a wig.)

    I used to torture my hair with straightening it every time I worked. I've got very naturally curly hair and as soon as I would get hot, it would start to wave...ick. I was convinced that I could only make money on the "sleek and sexy" style...but I got tired of spending so much time in the dressing room straightening my hair all the time.

    I finally broke down and decided to go curly. I'd pull it up with curly tendrils falling down...pin it back...whatever...I banked. The guys loved it. Sure enough, shortly after I started wearing my hair all curly and stuff...several other girls started doing the same thing.

    The only time short hair in a club is a no-no is if the cut looks bad. But, your hair looks great!! Let some of the natural curls come out and just go with it.

    Lovely ideas for the meantime, and very cute.... but are we forgetting the Walmart Hair pills? My hair is growing like CRAZY, and sooooo super thick and soft and shiny. Not bad for $3 a bottle.

    I'm native american , black and what we think is mexican (my grandma can't remember) But I imagine you have to straighten you hair to get it straight like that... as do I . I don't recomend a bob... i think you'd have to have a perm or straighten it to get it to look good. unless you already use perms (they don't work on me)... but then again if you rapped your head at night that might keep it straight through out the night... :\

    btw : my hair was your length 2 years ago when I lived with my parent ... and no just from getting actual hair bands (not rubber bands "barrowed" from my moms work) plus buying the right hair conditioner and not striaghtening it for months at a time.... its well past my shoulders.... I was freaking out the day I could but my "bangs" in my mouth.... I felt like a white girl ^_^

    I don't know if that helped I bet I was just rambling... But I know how much it sucks to be stuck inbetween two distinct hair types...

    Oh yes, I can definitely relate here.

    I have this inbetween hair. I usually get it chemically straightened but I think I can just straighten my natural hair with a flat iron so I have been growing it out for a couple months so far. I am so sick of it breaking off. I also have highlights like you, so it can get EXTRA dry if I'm not careful.

    I've done braided extensions, weaves, clip-ins, glue ins, all kinds of shit.
    I have to say I loved my braided extensions, and my clip ins.

    Maybe look into fusions?

    EDIT: WTF. Nevermind.

    To update this thread since it was brought up again:
    I have thin hair but wear clip in extensions for work now. I like my clip ins as long as I like normal colored hair. I'm still planning on dying my hair purple but want to find a wig that fits right.
