I want people's opinions!

[unforth]

So every number of years, I start thinking about cutting my hair short. The last time was in the Spring of 2001, and before that in 1995. But apparently it's come again. However, it's a big decision, it takes years for my hair to grow back if I cut it short (about 4 years to get it back to it's current length, maybe 3). So here's the question I want opinions from ya'll on:

Should I cut my hair short?

Short is about chin length - not long enough for a pony tail.

I want to hear what you think, and why! :)

(I'm leaning heavily towards cutting it, though I can't say why...)

I think you have a lovely face for short hair!

Here are some longer short hairstyles:

But I think you'd look adorable with one of the new pixie cuts.

Also, really long hair doesn't really do much for anybody, in my opinion. It just kind of hangs there, or is worn back in an unflattering ponytail. I've always found it a curious vanity, considering how much better most people look with their hair cut/shaped/layered into some kind of style.

Those hair cuts are so cute!! I've been trying to decide just how short to go - I've never had my hair as short as any of those pics, but I'm seriously considering it - I've wondered how I'd look with boy-length hair for ages, and so I was considering just going for it and figuring at worst it'd grow out again. :)

I think the trick to keeping a feminine look with short hair is to keep lippie on hand, even if it's just tinted gloss. Heaps of women look stunning in short hair, and I'm sure that nobody looks at them and thinks "boy hair" - don't worry about that. :-)

I say go for it! When I cut my long hair short (I went from long to medium, and then to short, and then to REALLY short) I got kind of addicted to the sassy, high energy feeling that short hair brings about. It's transformative!
