Cut my hair or no?

Here is the haircut I just got a few weeks ago. Been growing my hair out for 2 years, but now I think I want a shorter do again! I have thick naturally curly/wavy hair and it is falling out cause it is so thick and I look like a poofball! In this picture it was flat ironed, but I hate having to do that everyday! Cut short? another way? Would like some suggestions as I want something new to reflect the changes I have made in my life recently!

    I have thick hair and noticed whenever I got it short my hair would become one big POOF.
    I would suggest maybe a medium length with longer layers in the back.. Maybe bangs? You seem to have a nice forehead for bangs.. Either blunt across or even feathered off to the side :)

    I had bangs, that what I grew out for 2 years lol! Had them my whole life. I am just so totally bored with my hair! Wish i had thinner straight hair. It's hard having hair that goes wacko!

    You should get a pixie, ala Michelle Williams... In this picture it's a bit grown out,.... but you can google her to see lots of other little variations!

    Yes this is cute. It's hard to find styles when my hair is wavy/dry/flyaway. I thought I wanted longer hair, but all I do with it is put it back in a pony tail and go about my day. I want something that is easy to style and will take away all of my shedding! My hair sheds horrible as it is so thick and I also believe some is falling out because of my anemia I suffer from due to my disease.

    I have very thick, naturally curly hair and I have mine cut in a short inverted bob and I really like it, but I do have to take the time to flat iron it. I also get my hair thinned EVERY time I get it cut because otherwise it looks like a giant poof lol
