it's all about me, obviously

Okay, this is possibly the most narcissistic post EVER, but I need the help!

I'm home for Spring Break (oh beautiful, beautiful NC, I am such an East Coast girl now, what am I going to do?) and I have tons of work to do but - that can all start tomorrow. Or Monday even. Today I am loafing about stalking people's pictures on Facebook (what do you do when bored? lol) and getting bored with my hair.

I AM BORED WITH MY HAIR. I WANT CHANGE. I think. But I don't know what I should do with it. Cut it? Color it? Perm it? Right now it's the longest it's been in a while; I have a tendency of getting dramatic cuts then letting it grow out long, then cutting it short and starting all over again.

I AM SO INDECISIVE. You have no idea. I was talking to [livejournal.com profile] lille_bean on the phone about this and she suggested I just make a poll and have other people make my decisions for me, hahaha. SO TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.

Keep in mind that I have to look professional as a law student. No crazy highlights. :(

Options (with pictures to help!):

-Long and black (as it is now? and I'll just a get a trim because split ends alksdjfd ew) | # #
-Long and brown | # # #
-Mid-length and black | # #
-Mid-length and brown | # #
-Short and black | # #
-Short and brown (I've never had this...no pics!)

Vote! :DDD

[Poll #1361540]

YEAH I'M KIND OF A BIG DEAL. Right. Totally.

Help?

I went with the short black hair, for you wanted to look "professional" and that looks so like "me = law"
but I like the mid-lenght brown as well. ^^

You look cute with short hair! :D The only con I have for short hair is that it gets sort of annoying when you grow it out; I cut my hair super short (like Coffee Prince!YEH) and I liked it a lot while I had it, but then when I was growing out I'd toss my head like a horse & look funny. >|

I like long-and-brown-hair pic #1. You look really pretty~

lkshdfslkd but then when I was growing out I'd toss my head like a horse & look funny. >|

LAUGHING. ♥ Oh Sarah.

I like short hair too - the problem with it is that you have to get it cut constantly because if you let it grow out to that weird midlength thing, it looks all funny and you can't do anything with it. :(

TY! I was dressed up for a Charity Ball. I should have more occasions to dress up...

;______; Not helping, Sapphy! I am indecisive just like that! I like being able to do things with my hair but I'm also mostly incredibly lazy about my hair, haha. Dilemma of the perpetually lazy.

aksjdfl aww thank you. Mostly I am lazy about my hair though, which is why I'm sort of :/ about the short hair (needs maintenance!) so maybe I will stick with long hair like you suggest~!

[identity profile] havs.livejournal.com 2009-03-07 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I think you would look nice with whatever hair you choose to go with, since... you look nice in all those pictures. DB

If you're not opposed to neutral highlights, I think some nice warm-toned highlights would look nice in your hair if you decide to keep it dark.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-07 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
HIGHLIGHTS. I can't believe I didn't think of those. There's a possibiliy for a not-so-drastic change. And I haven't done those before!

Also thank you~~ ♥

I'll be honest, I don't like a perm on you. Also, in the mid-legnth brown photo YOU LOOK LIKE HYORI. But I vote short and brown, because you've never done it before.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-07 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahaha I don't think I want to do a perm either. It just got put up there as an option because, whatever, WHY NOT?

That is what [livejournal.com profile] black_goose said also! And you both make a very compelling point.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Hahaha FINE BE THAT WAY.

Yeaaaah, I think I want to do that for sure sometime. I'm actually thinking I might get over myself and just stick with this long hair for now, grow it out a little more, then when I want to get it cut for sure (maybe summer?), I'll dye it too. Short and brown! :O

[identity profile] callais.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
\o YOU CAN PULL OFF ANYTHING. -IS OF NO HELP AT ALL-

Okay, okay, srs time. BI You look really pretty with long black hair but you want a chaaaaaaange so scratch that. Short and black makes you look older? If you want to look older and stuff, I would pick that. And then I really liked both long brown and mid-length brown. But you look cute in any style so don't mind me! XD ♥

-flops away-

aksdj so sweet ♥

My problems in life are so trivial, haha. Maybe I should actually go do something useful instead of being indecisive about my hair.

[identity profile] http://users.livejournal.com/_houseki/ 2009-03-08 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
I'll say, if you're going for something more feminine, long and black is good because you have such pretty hair. *_* For a slightly more serious look, mid-length and black is good too. Colouring is okay I guess but the growing out process is tacky so unless you want to keep colouring your hair, which, I think, will kill it in time.

:D:D:D

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Awww thank you~ ♥ My mom might have convinced me to just keep my hair long for now, though I'm still considering highlights. I'm definitely going to get it cut short in the future but I think I want to grow it out a little more (and donate when I cut it)!

Yeah, not a huge fan of coloring in the long run. :(

[identity profile] downpour.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
I like the short black hair with the (somewhat?) side bangs going on. :D I'm just not a fan of the brown hair, probably because all the asians here do that and it looks bad on 95% of them. :|

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
It is so the "in" thing to do among Asians, apparently. If I do it, it's mostly because I'm bored of black hair but still need to maintain some veneer of professionality. But it's also kinda expensive so I probably won't haha.

[identity profile] coyotecolored.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
I voted short and black! I think it looks by far the most professional, and as far as maintenance, I found that it was always more of a hassle to keep long hair looking nice than to keep short hair looking nice. long hair you have to brush like 24038 times a day or it gets full of flyaways and looks tangled and careless. not a huge fan of brown hair, honestly, or I wouldn't spend all of my time trying to go other colors xD

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
Brown is a little exciting for me after a lifetime of nothing but black, haha. And other colors really don't show up. But I am also lazy and indecisive, so I don't know what I'll end up doing with my hair. I agree that short and black is probably the most professional on there! At some point in my life, I know I'll end up back there. XD

[identity profile] svz-insanity.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
You look cute in every single picture. *am jealous*

I vote for short and black. Maybe a Hebe bob from Zen Me Ban (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9Wgy1wUpzQ)? :D I bet that would look super cute on you. :D

*am also incredibly vain and picky about my hair* I also have random attacks of 'OH GOD I NEED TO CHANGE MY HAIR IT'S SO BORING WTF'. :D SO MUCH FUN. (But I'm also terrified of change and looking horrid! DILEMMA.)

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh I do think her hair is cute. I might consider that when I get my hair cut - I think I'm going to let my hair grow a little longer for now and then donate it when I cut it.

But hahah oh god I get bored of it so easily. I'm always thinking, hmm, I shold do something with my hair. But oh I'm lazy!

[identity profile] uminohikari.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
I think they all would look nice, but short hair would be pretty hard to maintain if you don't get it cut often? And mid length is a bit more professional looking, so...

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I feel that way too! I think I'm going to stay with long hair for now (grow it out a little more) but definitely going to get it cut to be professional later.

i think the short black hair makes you look the oldest and the most adult? my second choice is long and black/brown. although i guess i am just normally a sucker for short hair :( i also think this looks really nice.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Thaaaaaaaaanks. :D I will hold off a little bit on a haircut but when I do, it's going short, and I shall have pics!

[identity profile] aisutennyo.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
You look younger with short hair in general. Which isn't always bad, just keep that in mind.

You are gorgeous with the long hair. Well, with any of it, you are still gorgeous.

I'd go with medium black though. Like in the second pic of that that you posted. It really flatters your facial shape and the layers worked really well for you. It was just a great cut haha.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-09 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks for your opinion! Things to keep in mind as I deliberate over my hair, haha.

[identity profile] risabet.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 04:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I also say short and black. Idk, it just looks really good on you in the pictures? And, in my opinion, the shorter cut sort of frames your face beautifully, and makes you look not only cute but also professional. It works either way.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
:D Aww thanks. I think I will go with black and short in a little bit - gonna grow out my hair a little longer for now.

[identity profile] papered.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
your photos, they're so cute. ♥

I like long and brown or short and black best. I chose the former in the vote (idk, I'm just biased towards longer hair XD), but you really pulled off short and black well too. ♥

Also, yay for spring holidays! We had ours in the form of a "reading break" back in February, so I'm not getting one in March, which means I'm totally jealous of everyone off school right now. *____*

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-03-09 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
Don't be too jealous! I had a fun (long) weekend (went out Thurs & Fri too!) but come tomorrow, I have to do a ton of work to prep for everything after Spring Break. ;_; Oh, school.
