Hair Haiku (Delay Due to Dissertation)

Had a slight delay
Hair is not cut nor colored
Needs to happen soon.

** I am a fan of Natalie Dee's comic illustrations. Much of what she does isn't quite as  ...  errr, uhhh ... clean.  This one seemed suitable
and appropriate for my family friendly blog.

Social Media Salon

I got a shorter haircut relatively recently (you know, a cut where people ask "I thought you were going to grow your hair out?") and now I'm rethinking what I want to do with my hair. It's one length (bangs too) that is right at chin level. I haven't colored it in three years, so it's a medium brown, very straight.

 
Here are my options:
  • Keep it at the present length and color it 
  • Cut it shorter
  • Cut it shorter and color it
Keeping it as is, is not an option.

 
I tend to get stuck in ruts when it come to hairstyles and such (another blog topic entirely :  ), so I thought I'd toss this out here on the blog and Twitter (follow @kateered) to get a wider variety of perspectives.  This strategy was inspired by a co-worker and fellow blogger -- Molly at The Snyder 5 -- who sought feedback on formal dresswear.

 
Please vote for which cut and/or color look you like (A is the top photo and F is the bottom photo; I think you can figure out the rest).

 
A: COLOR = Bold, chunky blond, red highlights CUT = Similar length to mine right now, but she has bangs.
B: COLOR = Very Subtle, highlights CUT= The length of her hair is just a touch longer than mine.
C: COLOR = Even bolder, chunky blond, red highlights CUT= Shorter than mine, with bangs and layering
D: COLOR = Deep red, burgundy highlights CUT= Shorter than mine
E: COLOR = Blond, light highlights in the front CUT= Shorter than mine
F: COLOR = Full blond (not likely to go this route) CUT = Shorter than mine

 

 

 You can provide your feedback in these ways:
  • Tweet on Twitter (follow @kateered)
  • Comment on Facebook 
  • Post a comment on EdenborgEdition.blogspot.com (right here!) 
I thank you in advance for your insights and will keep posting about the incoming votes and final results. (Don't let the faces in the photographs bias you. Just because a cut and color makes Jessica Simpson or Keira Knightley look good, doesn't mean it'll do the same for me.)
