Breakups = New Hairstyles

Sooo... what does a girl do when her relationship has ended and she's extremely brokenhearted? Get a new hairstyle of course, WINNING!
Now, some back round information. I have had every hairstyle through my 29 years known to man (except for a rat tail, which I one day hope to achieve), from blue hair, pink hair, red hair, self pixie hair cuts, bleached, bangs.. etc. everything courtesy of me and many many shitty hair stylists who promised me they were the best. So yes, I have trust issues with the hair stylists you could say :( Fortunately I found some stylists who backed up what they said. Even when I moved back home, and go on my bi-yearly visits to Miami, I would still come in to my trusty salon. And 4 hours later "VAVOOM!!" That's when I started believing in miracles. Unfortunately they have both left my trusty salon, and moved far far away. Due to the holiday season my budget is very limited, and I am not going to Super Cuts again and risk getting albino highlights with shit brown dyed hair (I'm a natural blond) think J-Woww Jersey Shore Season 1. So I decided to take matters in my own hands. That's right.. usually not a good idea when I say that. I was going to give myself a slight hair makeover. Nothing overboard, but I figured, ehhhh it's just hair and it will grow back and everything will be groovy again. The same way I feel about my broken heart. I needed a change. Normally I would get a tattoo, but I decided to go for something a little less permanent this time around. Still I won't rule the tattoo out.

My hair influences, singer Duffy and Jenny Lewis. It was a big risk for me, since last time I tried to cut own bangs due to being sooo completely inspired by Duffy I ended up with a mullet/bowl cut look. But since I am one who doesn't learn from their mistakes, nor remember half the time I thought I'd give it a go again. I can honestly say I didn't do too bad of a job. I will post pics soon of my OWN hair as soon as I make it somewhat presentable. Its just the dye job that made my hair orange which was not the color I was going for at all... Oh well :/

The hairstyles pictured are amazing. And are absolutely some styles I would try. I need to get to my stylist soon. I have been growing my hair out for a long time but I need a new cut desperately bad.

After a breakup, I would ALWAYS do something different to my hair. After a particularly bad one, I chopped it all off and into an angled bob. It turned out cute, though, so I'm okay with it ...

I truly love a thick, shaggy bang. All the more so because its not something my hair is capable of achieving--it's too thin and wispy. So obvs, I can't wait to see how yours turned out. You better post pictures soon, ok?

Hope you had an awesome christmas.
