New hairstyle help?

So I want to completely change my hair style. I'm so sick of my current one.

Most recent picture of me.

I already found a picture, and I'm completely in love with the style. I'm just not to sure if it would look flattering on me or not.

Here's the picture.

I think that hairstyle would look great on you! The only problem with it is it requires a lot of "up keep" you have to iron it everyday if you want to get it to look like the picture(even if you have straight hair). The other problem with this cut is that it grows out quickly and you'll have to get trims often for your hair to retain the shape and style because as soon as it starts growing out it doesn't lay as nicely. (these things are from experience, I had that hair cut a couple years ago)

I do really love the look of the style but I think there are better ones out there that are more popular now.

It would help if we would know your hair type (ie. frizzy, thin, thick...) and your age (if you're uncomfortable posting it could you ball-park it? Like for example: high school/college/young adult...

Also I think that same hair that you posted in the pic would look even cuter if it ended after the shorter layers and completely chopped off the longer part so it would go to about the chin.

Since you have an oval shaped face you can do basically any cut you want. But for you I would go for a bob or a really cute, girly super-short pixie cut!

I personally LOVE this cut and I totally want to get it for myself hahaha

I just turned 19. I've always wanted a haircut like that, but since I wasn't paying for it I couldn't get it. My hair is thick and depending on the weather and how much I blow dry my hair it gets frizzy. I don't care to much if the style isn't in style. Not really my thing haha. I like having something different.

I realized it would take a lot of up keep and I was actually planning to get my hair trimmed every 6 weeks or so. This would keep it healthy and the shape from disappearing. I have researched this extensively, hair products and all xD!

The picture you posted is adorable. The thing is I'm terrified of going that short and I love long hair. I've gone short before, a long time ago, and it did not look good on me at all. I think the furthest I'd go is just above the shoulders.

Thank you for your answer, you were more helpful than my friends haha. I feel a little bit better about completely mutilating my hair now. c:

i'd try it, if it doesn't work out you can just let it grow out or something.
also, as Lo says, oval faces look good with about every type of haircut. that haircut would look good on you i think. and you have AWESOME hair. or at least in the picture of you, it looks real pretty.

You can wear the cut, but I'd worry about my hair... That cut (in my opinion) really only works for people with asian and indian type hair. Lighter hair always flys away, frizzes out and breaks.
I've had that choppy thing, and it really wasn't my thing. But, then again, I can't be bothered to style my hair, like, ever. I did when I was 14, but when everybody pulls your pigtails and boings your bobbles, you give it up. (Heh, I really wanted to say that XD)
Personally, I think that you can find a more versatile, less damaging hair style and still achieve the same vibe

Whenever you get it cut ask about getting it "razored" and if it's right for you. If it is it looks great! I had my hair razored many times and it's kind of scary to get done because they pull out a razor and start cutting away at it but when it's done it looks really cool! You get a super choppy and super layered cut. Something like this:

that looks really cool, the razor hair style. i've got very thin, light, straight hair so i doubt about it working for me, but if it is done right and with the right hair type it's really pretty.
