So, I'm thinking about getting my hair cut in the next week or so. I found a cut that I really like, but I'm on the fence about it. I LOVE the way it looks in the photo, but I'm not sure I'll like it on me. I've never had a cut this short and my hair is extremely thin on top due to PCOS and hypothyroidism. What do you guys think? Should I go for it? The first photo is a pic of the cut I'm thinking about getting. The second photo is a headshot of me.

    No. It's ugly and you are too young to have ugly hair!

    ..and I think you're really pretty. :heart:

    you can get that body with product. (probably the only time that phrase has been said on MFP that won't get flamed) but i would worry that the cut is older than you want.

    your face is too cute for an old lady cut, maybe show the pic to the hairdresser for an idea but ask for something more youthful

    it looks like the cuts 70 year old actresses have on soap operas, youre just too young

    I think that cut is too old for you. You are really pretty so i'd say nahhh on that cut and get something a little more age appropriate... Just my opinion.

    I think it's way out-dated.

    I wouldn't go with that cut and style if your hair is really thin. You won't get the "body" and the "volume" that the photo has, which is the best part about that style.

    When it comes to haircuts, it's not about what looks good, it's about what suits you personally. As others have said, it's old fashioned, which isn't a problem if you like it but... a few things to consider are the texture of your hair, hair colour, thickness/volume and face shape. You say you have thin hair, I'd look for a haircut that would add volume while defining your face shape a little more.

    I think you're too young and cute for it.

    But layers are great for adding volume to thin/fine hair.

    I agree, the cut reminds me of older soap actresses. But I also agree that some layers might help to give you some volume and body, so if you could find one like that but modified younger!

    Agree that cut is too old-ladyish for you. If you want layers, I think you'd look great with one of those cuts that's longer in the front and short in the back.

    Wow! I wasn't expecting this many negative comments. The woman in the photo is younger than me and I don't think it makes her look like an old lady. Oh, well, guess it's back to the drawing board.

    That's what I've done the last three times I've gotten my hair cut. I'm bored with it and was looking for something different.

    i think it's ok, but would go shorter in the back so it's more even....if that make sense? i like the inverted bobs :smile:
