I don't like "boyish" or "edgy" hair styles, but I do like curls, waves, and updo's.

I always have worn my hair short and it's so easy to take care of, I'm getting tired of my mid length bob and thinking of cutting it again I drew more attention from my short hair but not so much with this every where bob!

I'm liking these ideas because I am planning a big cut in the coming months. I'm so over the angled bob though!

Short hair is the trend for girls now. I admit I cut my hair really short but not because I wanted to its because I had to :(
