Does anyone feel that their hair looks better when it is bra strap length or shorter like shoulder length? Does anyone think their hair looks better when it is in a v-shape/u-shape or slightly layered or long-layered?
When I wear my hair straight, I don't like it.
I feel like it's so long that it doesn't have a shape...it's just SO boring looking to me. I honestly feel too self-conscious to even leave the house with it down.
When I had my hair relaxed, I always wore it down. I did not own a big mirror to check out my hair everyday before leaving the house. Could it have looked like crap for MANY years in the back and I never knew b/c I never looked and thought it looked ok b/c it did in the front? (I did get compliments now and then.)
Compliments....I wonder sometimes if people just compliment your hair for being long simply because it is long...not because it looks beautiful? I went to the salon for a trim yesterday. I had flatironed my hair and so it wasn't salon perfect by any means...and the ends were straight...I didn't want to curl them since I was getting a trim. Well, the girl who put my robe on me complimented my hair saying "Your hair is so pretty and long." Of course I'm thinking "Wait a minute, let me show you my breakage."
When I look at others pictures, I see some beautiful hair that is bra strap length or shorter and slightly layered.
I want my hair to look nice when I choose to wear it straight and when I choose to wear braidouts during my transition. What style/shape can I get for this? I want to be happy with my hair now!
Sorry that this is so long...anyone have any thoughts or understand what I am going through?
