Hi girls !

Well I feel bad to post this here but I thought it can also interest you as I am doing a marketing project in Sydney about the differences between French and Australian in terms of view of beauty and their hair!
The thing is that beyond this I would be so happy to discuss my results with you (what is your vision of beauty, what kind of hairdresser you said you prefer :)) I have a survey with only 10 questions which is below, it would be so helpful for me that you could answer it:


Once again I would love anyway to talk about haircare an compare our point of view as I think it changes according to the country :)

Thanks you so much !

You’re so cute! Definitely stop putting yourself down.

I think you would look great with a long bob with layers – and maybe a few lighter foils to break up the colour.

I agree with the above comments. Layers and balayage.

I agree with other comments above. No reason to put yourself down, you look great! Since your hair is quite straight and long, i would suggest to have some layering…it might feel very light after the cut, but you will love it. It ill give your hair more body and texture. My hair is also long and straight and i always have it layered – cannot live without it! and like other comments suggested, may be do the fringe…probably start with a side sweep fringe! and remember, you are beautiful!

Dont put yourself down Thina, you look great as it is! And a big well done on the weight loss.
As for your hair is it naturally straight like that? Its really nice already but if you want a change perhaps you could talk to a hairdresser to see what types of hairstyles would suit your face shape and not take too much effort to style each day.
I think cutting some more layers in, a fringe and maybe some highlights would suit on you. I think highlights might be good to start with so you can see if you like them. Also if you get regrowth you dont really need to bother that much with it, unlike a completely different colour all over.

Find a really good hairdresser,ask your friends and neighbors who they might recommend and go to them and let them help you with finding what would suit you and your hair. It does not matter if you find a style that you like and it looks good , keep it. Do not worry about trying to keep up with what is trendy. If you look at some film stars you will find that they have had the same style for years and no one says a word. Good luck and I’m sure you will come up with something great.

Thina, you look gorgeous as is. However, if you want to change your hair I would suggest going through magazines or look online for styles you like. Take the pictures to a hairdresser & see what they suggest. The pictures of styles you like may guide them a little. It could also be that you don’t even need a drastic cut but just a slight change in colour. A fresh colour always makes me feel good.

My hair is actually quite similar to yours, just not as long. I added some blonde and caramel foils into my hair because I wanted a change, but didn’t want to do anything drastic.

I have also had a bit of a side fringe cut into my hair, it’s actually a bit longer than I wanted, so i’ll probably get it cut shorter next time. And I also have layers at the end of my hair which give it a bit more volume and life. It looks like you have quite thick hair though so you might not need volume.

I’d say start with adding some foils, and maybe while you’re getting that done ask the hair dresser what else she thinks you could do to your hair.

Ah really? I’ve been told many times that my hair is very fine?
but Thank you for the suggestions!
I might add foils to my hair since that’s what many people have been suggesting!

You look gorgeous Thina. I love your hair as it is but if you would like a change then i would suggest either adding a few layers to your hair to keep the length or keep the fringe long and cut shoulder length and if you want to add a splash of colour maybe some caramel coloured foils through your hair just a sprinkle 😉 Goodluck hun x p.s Congrats on losing 50lb, thats awesome work xo

Hehe thanks Animal lover,thank you so much for the suggestion!
