Considering a change in hairstyle...suggestions? - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

Hi guys...Lately, I'm feeling like I need a change in hairstyle, but I'm not sure what I want. Sometimes I find others have better suggestions than me, or think of something I wouldn't think of and I really like, so any ideas would be appreciated. I have a picture in my EC album called Me so you can see what it looks like now, but its basically just long and straight with layers. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to upload a picture in here or not. If someone can confirm for me that its ok I'll put one in the thread to make it easier for you guys to find it.

You would look kool with bangs

and dye it like really dark brown or black, that would make your eyes stand out more I think

I think it'd be cute shorter and more punky:

I agree with Vamp too, I'd dye it a really dark brown or black. Black hair and blue eyes is a hot look.

I think you'd look fantastic with a shorter look. Sort of layered, cut to just about your chin. Maybe you could go with sort of a graduated triangle cut; where it is slightly shorter in the back, but softly gets a little longer towards the front, so it sort of frames your face. Nothing as severe Kate Gosselin's reverse mullet, so don't worry.

I also second Maverick's suggestion, as I dig the sort of punky, laid-back party girl hair.

If your hair is like your profile, I vote for keeping it the same, maybe having bangs.

I like your hair <3

And dying it dark brown (but not black) would be very nice! :3

LOL THANK YOU FOR AGREEING WITH ME!

I was thinking I might go for bangs, maybe side bangs? I kind of like having the length because it gives me the ability to do a lot with my hair, but I'm just tired of it being exactly the same you know? Also, I was thinking either a dark brown or maybe an auburn/red color for dye...I checked out some dyes today and was leaning toward like a medium auburn...

DYE IT BLACK,BLUE/BLACK or PURPLE/BLACK!! DO IT NOW!!

If you're looking at dark reds you can get some awesome ones by dyeing it mid-dark brown and then putting a very bright red or pink over the top, so you might want to look at some of those shades too.

So here's my $0.02... get it cut to about shoulder length with slight layering and a side part with asymmetrical bang. As for color, i feel like a dark auburn with medium brown highlights.

that's even closer to what i was thinking. side bangs would be a win, and i would go either black or auburn/red.
