My natural hair is dark brown but I’ve been doing a black hair gloss every 6-8 months. The last time I did it was January. I’m kinda liking how my dark brown hair looks but I’m not sure what suits my complexion better. What do y’all think??
Thank you in advance :) <3

Ps: can I to back without bleaching?

Hi everyone. I have wanted to get baby bangs for a long time, but I never got the courage since I assumed that it wouldn’t suit my face shape. This filter that I tried is making me think otherwise. Do you think short bangs would look good or would it be better to leave my hair as it is? Thank you in advance🙏

Hi everyone! I’m looking for some honest haircut advice/recommendations for my natural curls.

Growing up, I was never really allowed to cut or experiment with my hair, so for most of my childhood and teen years, I was rocking the unintentional dandelion look. Now that I have total freedom over my hair, I’ve been wearing it in a layered cut with small bangs. But lately, I’ve been itching for a real change.

I’m really drawn to a more alternative/edgy aesthetic and have been seriously considering a curly mullet or a modern shag/wolf cut. I’ve attached photos so you can see my natural texture and face shape (I think I’m somewhere between diamond and heart-shaped), plus a few pics showing how I've styled it across different lengths.

A bit of context: I work as a professional piercer, so a little bit of controlled chaos and edge totally fits my vibe and workplace. However, I’m also a med student, haha, so I need something that can strike a good balance between "cool and edgy" and "can still look put-together when needed."

I’m completely open to suggestions—whether you think the mullet would work for me or if there’s a different cut that would suit my curls and face shape even better. Honestly, I just know I want a change, but I’d love an outside perspective before I make the chop!

What do you think?

I have very thick heavy hair. I used to have it long until I got a short perm cut and fell in love with the short hair life. I then went for a straight pixie style cut and I love the style but idk if it loves me. Whenever I see examples of pixie/bixie transformations, it’s always on people with super cute button noses and narrow angular faces, and curly/textured hair. I have a pretty square face and thick, straight hair (without a perm of course), so I end up looking kinda mushroom-y after not very long. This is even after my hair is thinned out a lot - I even got a pair of thinning shears to try stay on top of it myself!

I guess my question is, does a short haircut suit me? Is my hair type and face shape a good combo for it? Or is long hair more ‘flattering’? Or even something in between?! I want to find a style I can go back to time and time again but I can’t seem to settle on something ‘signature’ for me 🥲

PS: I’m reposting this because I realized my other post had too many images and they were far away/with sunglasses. I think this one will be easier to vote!

So ..
1- short blonde hair
2- long blonde hair
3- medium light brown hair
4- medium blonde/reddish (curly hair)
5- even shorter blonde hair
6- long red hair (and red eyebrows)
7 and 8 medium red hair (lighter or darker)
9- long light brown hair

Hey! I’m booking an appt to color my hair. I want to go darker. I think espresso brown is the color that best suits my complexion without being too harsh (like black) and without pulling the red/pink tones on my face. Let me know what you think! 🙌🏻

I cant make up my mind!!

Been thinking about some change and these are just some *rough* ai tries. If there are suggestions you don’t see but think might look good lmk! I don’t mind whatever, and am open to suggestions. First pic is what I have currently. I’m naturally red, 2A fine hair.

EDIT**: OMG guys you’re so sweet 😭❤️ I didn’t expect to get so flattered posting these! You’ve been so kind!!

Is my hairline just not suitable for this? It's been this way for a long time.

I like to pull it back in a man-bun half up half down because I can't stand it touching my face. Wondering any advice on what style suits this strong widow's peak hairline with thick wavy hair.

Edit: thanks for the kind the comments. It stays!

What do I tell me barber, what products do I use, how should I dry my hair?
