Ok, first of all, thank you so much to all of you who commented on my hair trial post . Your kind words of encouragement and tips on how to better communicate with my hair stylist were (as always) greatly appreciated!
I have to admit though, I was keeping something from you, and unfortunately, I think some of you caught on (ahem, Spaniel). The truth is, as much as I was confused about whether or not I liked the back of my hair, I knew that I didn't like the front - which is why I didn't include any pictures of my face in the post.
Here is what it looked like:
I am seriously awkward here. Any tips on taking decent looking self portraits?
Now, in the stylist's defense, I did tell her that I wanted my hair like this. I wanted it simple and classic, but after seeing this pictures, I just don't like it. It looks so.....slicked back.
This experience has me questioning my hair choices. You see, I have had bangs in some shape or form for most of my life. I even had the ugly, thick, bangs that seemed to be all the rage in the early 90s. Kind of like this, except less styled:
As soon as Mr. P and I got engaged, I decided that I would begin to grow out my bangs. I felt that this would make my style choices more versatile and classic. However, seeing the pictures from my hair trial, I am starting to miss the way my bangs look in an up do. Just take a look:
Sister P, Puddin' Pops, and me
Now keep in mind that the two pictures of me aren't really comparable: one is a casual pic with bad lighting, while the other has me dressed up and in full make up. If I were to try the no bang look again, I would ask for a style more like the one Catherine is sporting here:
So, I turn to you, Hive, with the ever important question: Bangs, or no bangs?
