    Cut or Not?
    My hair is at that most annoying not-short-not-long length and I'm not sure whether to get it cut shorter again, or let it grow and suck it up
    Only thing is, I wasn't too sure whether the short hair suited me or not......
    Any ideas?

    If you have your hair cut short then you can control it a little better.
    But if you wanted to grow it long, just have a trim every now and again and then before you know it, it will be past that mid length♥

    Thanks, I just hate it being mid-length, so it's always up in a ponytail.... :P

    Good plan I might do that
    I mean if it's done properly and I take time over it, my hair can look semi-decent, sadly, I don't always have the time for it :L

    If you're unsure then don't cut.
    I did use to have it just above chin length, but it meant having to take a lot of time to keep it in shape...

    i think the best thing for you to do, is if you are looking for a change ask a hairdresser

    Oh I know what you mean, i used to haev it short and my hair grows soooo slow..... The graduated bob I had was great, but just when you think your hair is growing long, you remember it's nowhere near as long at the back :P

    I always thought my hair grew super slow but i last had the bob cut in July and it's already long enough to tie up in a bun so apparently it's grown quite quick thank god ( got super curly hair so hated blow drying straightening it eve day arghhh!!)The hair dresser showed me my hair at the back the other week and it was an upside down U shape from where it's grown out ahaha felt a bit silly that I'd be walking round like that

    That's brilliant
    My hair tends to grow outwards instead of downwards, so it has to be de-afro-ed every 6 weeks or else i have this blonde mass of hair

    I don't have curly hair, but put me out in a slight breeze, you might as well just forget it
    Never mind when it gets humid or when it rains, and me living in Scotland, it happens quite a lot :L

    I recently had my hair cut in that style and I love it!.Never really had my hair quite *that* short before but it's so easy to look after.My hair before was just a mass of thick unruly hair.

    Going to stick with this style for the foreseeable future.

    know the feeling! no amount of styling can save me once it's damp out
