Splitting Hairs

Ok, I'm annoyed with my hair. Y'all know I just had it cut back in May, but I'm feeling that it's grown a bit and now doesn't look as cute. I end up putting the longish part behind my ear and I don't really like the overall look. But I'm not interested in a trim to get it back to where it was because while I liked the cut, I didn't love it. So now I'm not sure what to do. Do I let it keep growing or do I cut it short short?

I've been collecting pictures of cute short haircuts (how did people get haircuts before the internet?!). I don't know if they'd look good on me, but I think I kinda maybe like them.

I like this Winona Ryder cut (I actually saved the first picture twice on two separate days):

I also like these Alyssa Milano cuts:

My biggest worry isn't super short hair (been there and done that before though much more stylized), which will grow back. My worry is that my hair can't do what their hair does. My hair tends to be very straight and well behaved. I don't know if it can have the piecy, textury look without lots of product or hassle. I want something simple. So blog friends, any thoughts???

I worry that you have too much hair for that style -- both women seem to have fairly thin hair. I know that stylists can thin hair, but I'm not sure it would work when it started to grow out.

And I think that you're right -- the style probably does require a lot of product!

(What about that haircut you blogged about a while ago specifically *because* you liked it so much? (I can't find it now!) Or do you want something new?)

Last suggestion (for now): could you try using product to keep your hair off your face, so you don't have to tuck it behind your ears? (Does hair-hold stuff do that??)

I think the first wynona cut would be fine - the second looks like a grown out version of the first - you probably would have to use some product - but not much and it wouldn't take very long since the hair would be short - it would definitely require more frequent hair cuts to keep up the style though - short hair like that usually does.
