Help!

I'm getting a haircut tomorrow. After I had my oldest, I just pretty much stopped doing my hair, opting for an everyday ponytail instead!! It's been eight years and I think I want hair in my face again!

Imagine a chubby face (me!) with naturally curly hair (that I can straighten!) and hair to the middle of my back....sorry about the big pictures!!

Haircut ideas?? I am looking for something trendy and not too short, would love to be able to have a ponytail on bad hair days!

Here are a few pics of what my hair looks like now...

I think your hair is beautiful but I can understand wanting a change! I want one too but never sure how to cut it either. Good luck!
 
OMG! Your face is so beautiful it seems you can probably pull off any look you want! I can't wait to see what cut you get!!
 
You girls are so sweet!! It's funny...but I always had short hair until I had kids. After that, I just fell into a slump. Every once in a while I will straighten my hair, but it's so blah! No shape to it at all!
 
maybe something with long layers? that way you have versatility - if you want a ponytail, you still have the length, but it's shorter and sassier so you get a lift too? thinking some variation of Halle below, because you both have such gorgeous cheekbones...

 
I would keep the length but get long layers. Not sure how layers look in curly hair though so that might not work. I have long wavy hair and just get long layers that I dont really have to do much with but blow-dry and it looks nice.

I like this!!! Thank you!!!
 
Awww. Sam! I love your hair!

If I were you, I would keep it long enough to still pull back...I still wish I could pull mine back some days!! If you go too short, you are going to be miserable transitioning from pony tails to having to fix it every single day. Just go slowly!

Good luck and don't forget to come back and show us pictures!

Hey girlie! First of all....you have gorgeous hair!!!!

Here is my suggestions :

If all of that curl you have is natural......layers are going to make your hair "poofy" if you wear it with your natural curl and just let it "air" dry. If you leave alot of your length that you have....the weight of your hair will help with that alot tho.

When we have the time and want to straighten it......omg......long layers would be gorgeous!!! But, if you don't have the time.....keeping it close to the length you have will still allow you to wear the ponytail you are used to.

You are gorgeous already and when you add those layers and straighten your hair, blow dry your hair while combing the sides and your bang area toward your face. It will be Gorgeous framing your face.

One other tip.....if you don't have one....invest in a blow dryer with a diffuser. OMG.....I would love to have your hair and be able to use a diffuser on it!

Oh....one more tip.....make sure to protect that gorgeous hair with heat protection styling product. It will help a ton to not damage your hair, keep frizzies down and help the shine. Try something like Biosilk or Redken's Heat Glide.

Can't wait to see pics!

P.S. Had to be technical.......sorry......Im a cosmetologist..........
