Show us a transformation.

This is me at work in April 2002 (before getting all pregnant and puffy with my son).

This is me at my brother's house in April 2005 (when I was still carrying a lot of baby weight).

This is me this morning (April 2008).

Me April 08

Actually the main purpose of posting these photos (apart from them fitting with today's Vox Hunt theme) was to seek some feedback on how to get my hair cut. Should I go back to really short as in 2002 or grow it a bit longer? the problem with my hair is that it tends to have a mind of its own particularly when the air is moist. It is looking okay today as I straightened it to within an inch of its life yesterday. My worry is that if I get it cut really short, I will put on weight in the face again and it will start looking awful as it did in the years between the first two photos (part of the reason I grew it long again). Any suggestions most welcome.

I think it looks nice now. If you grew it longer you'd want to keep it layered. Maybe you could grow the top a bit longer but keep the bottom cut in shorter.

[this is good]

I agree with Cat. You look much fresher now!

Thanks Cat. It does have a tendency to go a bit mullet-ish at the back so good advice.

Thanks Connie. :)

I've heard there are different haircuts for different ages. You look fine now, a little bit shorter?? perhaps! without looking like a 'devoted' lesbian, it's ok!! :p

What Cat says sounds okay!! :)

You have to watch your weight all the time, though!! I think you're the kind who can lose weight ratherly easy than with difficulty, am I right??! OK, take care!! :D

Thanks Mario. I wish I could still lose weight without difficulty! I used to be one of those people who could eat all sorts of rubbish and not put on weight but the older I get (I am now 40) the harder it is and I have to work pretty hard to get it off. Will post a photo of my new haircut once I get it done.

I think your current hair-cut is the best. Probably not what you want to hear if you're in the mood for a hair change!

Well, thanks, if I can: waiting to see for that new haircut is going to be!!! ;)

The fact that you can pull off a short haircut and look fantastic slays me! I would love to cut my hair short but the last time I did, I was mistaken for my brother! How sad is that ? :-D
