hair thursday makeover 46

Well, hello there! We’re finally back to our regularly-scheduled Hair Thursdays.

Except that, um, we’re not. Don’t worry, voting is included, but this one isn’t going to involve much writing.

You see, we are leaving on vacation early tomorrow morning and I haven’t started packing.

(Did I mention that our vacation involves a 14-hour road trip? With a toddler? And that I ENCOURAGED THE ROAD TRIP? “No honey, let’s not fly. We always fly. Let’s take a road trip! Where’s your sense of adventure?! Wito will love it, I’ll love it, we will ALL LOVE IT.” Famous last words, I’m sure.)

Let’s get crackin’, shall we?

Meet Mary.

Mary’s hair:

Light mousy brown, gets auburn highlights. Happy with color.
Normal condition
Wave pattern is wavy on top, underneath is stick straight
Large cowlick
Open to all lengths beside super short
Uses a flat iron when straight, curling iron for waves
Looks “fuzzy” when straight

Try these options on for size:

Shoulder-length with heavier, sideswept bangs (to hide cowlick) or keep the length with less bang?

Our next participant is Heather:

Heather’s hair:

Has worn her hair in this style for 15 years
Considering donating her hair – needs to take off 10 inches for Locks of Love
Works an overnight shift – would rather sleep an extra thirty minutes than style it (Amen to THAT.)
Wants to stop wearing ponytails all the time

Shiny, happy hair in need of a change. What about these options?

Keep it long with face-framing layers OR go for the gusto (and Locks of Love!)?

See you on the flip side.

    I chose #1 for both participants! I think they’re both going to look so gorgeous with their new ‘dos! :)

    I’m with Leah — I could cut bangs beginning at the back of my head and my cowlick would still push them over to the side.
