Whether or not a bob will work kind of depends on the type of hair you have. My hair is thin and frizzy/wavy/schizophrenic, so it really looks best if I keep it very short. However, then I have to keep getting it cut, and I'm too cheap/lazy to do that. If I have it in a bob, which I used to do when I was younger because I hated myself apparently, it just gets everywhere and tries to fro, but it quite can't manage it. It works best shoulder length; well, it won't grow any longer, so I don't know if it would work longer.

I usually just shove it into a ponytail anyway; not like I know how to do anything else with it except put a couple of hairpins into the ponytail to hold it up.

I have similar hair to you, and right now it's in this totally crappy mid-neck phase. The longest I've had my hair is shoulder-length and it SUCKS. If I don't wash it for a day it gets all sad and saggy, and the bits poking into my skin annoy me.

I shaved my head once (for a cancer fundraiser) and was surprised that it actually looked decent. Then the hair grew into a pixie cut which became a 'fro if not washed, but BEAUTIFUL when washed and combed. Not sure how to recreate that effect now without shaving.

Ahhhhh, the good old days. I miss that. (I was a hair model until I was 25 and it was fuuuuuuuuuuuuun <3) I have pictures somewhere of me in my various cuts/colours that I'd get like clockwork, every 6 months whenever the shows were on. *sighs nostalgically* I've had every colour except blue (dammit) and some pretty wild cuts too. *amused at my mum's reaction*

I later corrupted (as she put it) my sister into doing the same thing (becoming a hair model) tho she only did it once.

Now....I just put it in a ponytail and that's me for the rest of the day. Until I get annoyed and pull the hair tie out... *sheepish*

	lol, mine was never that wild. Every so often the salon (which does education) would hold a class and they'd need willing subjects. I was willing to go crazy but the novices weren't! XD (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Yeah, I always got chosen because I was willing to go all out, unlike some of the girls at the casting call. (mind you, this one girl, I totally DO NOT blame her - she had nearly floor-length hair and the stylist wanted to chop pieces off it. Not cut the whole thing but like...just parts of it. Too wild for her, so she flounced off home. *chuckles*)

Now I'm more like that girl, not willing to let anyone near my hair until I get desperate. I value my long hair (or what's left of it...the hairdressers here still seem to like chopping it off *wibbles*).
