Title: hair help
Post by: SophiePeters on March 25, 2013, 04:16:30 AM
Ok seriously tired of the wig but my hair is still so short. Both my avatar pic and this one were taken within days of each other. Does anyone have ideas on how to work with this so it looks more feminine (https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi1354.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fq690%2FSophie_Peters%2F484328091615684_zps4124ea24.jpg&hash=992a24254d7ed98c512a06936797e8ca56bd1832)

Well I started with hair that short and went to a pro saloon and they basically said - grow it and we will work wonders, at the moment you don't have enough to work with.

Not what I wanted to hear.

My hair is now below my ears, styled, coloured, highlighted, gorgeous and I have a fantastic group of hairdressers who care for me and want the best form me.

You look very cute in the wig, it suits you and it can't be too big and hot.  I'd try and stay with it for a while and then get professional advice.

Ye it can be expensive, ye it's worth every single penny. I would never have done to my hair what they have done, they are also teaching me in how to style it - girl 101 we miss out on.

You have a very pretty face and very nice features so look forward to life with pleasure! You will need a stick to beat the boys off!

Oh if you can get your eyebrows shaped, only cost about $20 and will set your eyes off, which are gorgeous and are a great feature in your facial structure. If you can, get advice from a make up counter of how to bring them out.
