It was an awkward phase - too short to pull back, too long to look short-chic. Now that I'm past that, I'm pretty happy with it, and it's so nice to have options. And, while I'll go very short again someday, I'm having fun with it now. <br />I do agree with the other commenters that your hair looks GREAT short-short, so if that feels more you, then go for it. mainlyclearskieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15382325172921750055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1145183089731808312.post-64937093874817270312013-05-15T21:11:48.488-07:002013-05-15T21:11:48.488-07:00C'mon, at least TRY the dryer sheet (for volum...C'mon, at least TRY the dryer sheet (for volume). You can rub a dry dryer sheet on damp hair, or a wet one on wet hair, or wet on dry hair- up to you to figure out the "best ratio" for your particular hair. (and amount of volume desired). Rub it on the roots/wherever you want your volume You can't really tell at first how much is going on- it's a learning curve- you'll be able to feel it as it dries, but not see it. You can also "squish" it if it's too much hold and it loosens up. Bonus: smells great, easy to carry around/touch up, massively simplifies hair styling time and process :) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1145183089731808312.post-28821180519550991352013-05-15T20:06:48.107-07:002013-05-15T20:06:48.107-07:00PS: I have fine, thick, slightly wavy hair and sho...PS: I have fine, thick, slightly wavy hair and short, well, it rocks.

I would say I like it at least five times as much as your other picture here. Then again, you're also lit better, wearing awesome lipstick, and smiling bigger - so it makes you look way brighter. <br /><br />I long to go back to short hair... But I promised my man (ARGH I KNOW) that I would get it at least past my shoulders for once in my life. Stupid boys, and their (sweeping generalization) fixation on lady hair. I'm not sure I can keep this promise. I start feeling really unlike myself, and more like a boring college freshman, when my hair touches my shoulders.
