Going from long to very short hair: what should my first haircut be?
I've finally decided to cut my long hair short just to try something different. I'm just a little tired of long hair. I've decided to get at least one or maybe two different haircuts before I reach my desired goal, which would be a short crop like Jamie Lee Curtis.
My hair is half-way down my back right now. What is a good style to cut it into first?
Serious answers only please.
Going from long to that short will be a shock, but if you do cut it into another hairstyle first, I really think you'll not get to the shorter length. If you want a shoulder-length bob, then cut it to your shoulders, but if you really want an ultra-short haircut, go to a barbershop where they really know how to cut hair short. Otherwise, you'll never get there, and you'll spend a lot of time wondering how it would have felt. Just cut it real short and get it over with. If you like it, then you can keep it short, but if you don't like it, then you can immediately start growing it out.
