We have another Lovelyish reader in need of hair advice. Help this chameleon find a new look.
Before each semester, I have gotten a new hairstyle and now, it’s about that time.
1st semester

Razor haircut with highlights.
2nd semester

Still razor, but but with bangs. Dyed black with blue highlights at the bangs.
3rd Semester

Hair color almost all natural, just a few remaining highlights in the front. I went the natural way, and got something that flattered my curly hair. It was supposed to be like a bob for curly hair.
Currently

When I finally straightened it, I saw that is was very similar to the razor cut I had, just with the layers a little different. It’s also dyed a lighter brown. In photos, it looks dark.
For this semester, I want something different, not another razor cut. Something that I’ve never really tried — an actual bob. I did some research. For my oval shaped face, I can experiment with lots of cuts. Although, bobs that have more volume on the top of the head are better for people that need to balance out more features. Round, square, and heart.
I have looked online and found a few that I really like.

I’m looking for something fun and stylish, cute and sophisticated, yet young. Also, something that is easy to put together in the morning. I have to cut it a little on the short side because of how long my shortest layer is. I also saw how some of them looked when they curled it, and I certainly can leave my hair curly if I’m super lazy.
Do you think a bob would look good on me? Which cut do you like the best? What else would you recommend?

I think you could pull off a bob with heavy bangs. The first one is my favorite, but you’d probably have to make sure you have volume. The fourth one is also cute, but it might be a little short if it’s super curly.

if you consider your face to be narrow, then a bob might be good for you, as bobs tend to work for people with narrower face shapes.
i think your hair looks good long as it is, i’d just suggest some side bangs if you wanna change your hair.
if you have a lazy day, you can lazily straighten (somewhat) your hair and then scrunch it, since your hair seems to be quite long right now. with short hair, its hard to pull off the really curly look (like in the 3rd semester) since it will be too short.

I think a bob would look awesome on you! Maybe try a bob with a little more length than in the pictures and with bangs – fringe or side-swept.

I think you would look absolutely lovely with long straight hair.

I think a bob should try out good on you, especially since you have a ovalish shaped face. I think u need to pick the cut that will be best for you when you have those moments when you dont feel like straighten it.

I think 1 or 2 would be just perfect! Go for it!

You should show all of these positive comments to a certain someone who said you wouldn’t look good with a bob haha.

I think you look better with longer hair.

I think #2~ it’s what I kinda have right now too.. and it’s less risky than the others. I think you need to have thick hair to pull off the more layered and choppy bobs. So I guess depends on what your hair is like? But long hair is good too.. more options for styling and such.

I do like the bob, and it is versatile.

i suggest that you get full bangs and haircut 2 would suit you best if you’re going to straighten it.
guest
number one
guest
NUMBER 2
guest
With the general shape of your face I’d say anything with full bangs would work. Good luck!
guest
I like number five.
It’d look really cute on you.
guest
I personally like your current photo with longer hair. However, if you were to go with a bob, the 2nd photo looks best.
guest
You have a good face shape for a bob, but I wouldnt bleach it out like those. Keep your color.
And I think you should go with number one.
It’d be cute
guest
Go for it!
But dont dye your hair blonde like these girls cuz ur eyes wont really work with it.

i love short hair (ive had it since i was born :])! and those pics are fab
HOWEVER..i dont think short hair would work on you
i think you look fine as is. If you’re going to get a new do (due? doo? hair do?), I think bangs would be the way to go.
guest
2 is cute!
guest
try it!!!!
guest
I like #2 =) go for it

i say go with what you want, but i think 2 is super cute

I’m a guy who just had my long hair trimmed into a layered, shaggy bob with some highlights (even wrote a blog about it). I wouldn’t recommend a roundish bob with a heavy bang. Go for those wispy bangs than can go sideways with ease. And I like no. 5.
guest
look at pictures of anna wintour. i think her hairstyle (bob with bangs) would look great on you.
(:
guest
I like #2.
I’m also a chameleon, and I rarely get the same haircut twice. On my next trip to the salon I’m getting an inverted bob.
guest
number two is cute !:)
guest
I think you should go for it just for the sake of doing something different. Never know until you try. And if worst comes to worst, just have someone fix it.
