Off Topic: The Hairs
I have a history of chopping off my hair and not telling anyone. Did it in college, grew it out, and did it again 9 months ago, lopsided. But like anything that that’s been sitting around that long, my hair will soon be a new creation. I’m going full pixie. And I’m telling you about it. (HUGE!)
For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to chop all my hair off. As I told the Mr., “as near as I can get to a feminine buzzcut.” Slowly I’ve worked towards that but it’s time to commit. My present asymmetrical haircut just needs a trim. I’m still having fun at this party but I think it’s best to leave early.
So, how about a little help from you guys? The last thing I want to do is walk into my amazing hairdresser’s place and say, “Give me that haircut from the girl in Breathless.” PS Jean Seberg.
Or say, “Give me the subtle elegance of my girl, Audrey Hepburn.” (unoriginal)
Let’s hear it, are there any other classic short-haired hotties?

I totally took my vhs copy of ‘hackers’ into a hair dresser when I was in high school. Angelina Jolie in that movie was my quintessential pixie cut. Oh, Winona Ryder had a great one as well.
Ohhhh hackers, excellent suggestion!
ohhhhh I am fawning all over Michelle Williams’ hair in Vogue – see http://www.stylelist.com/2009/09/15/michelle-williams-opens-up-to-vogue-about-life-after-heath-ledge/
Aw yeah, super cute. Thanks for sharing!
Posted this partially for you sometime back:http://enchantedroyals.blogspot.com/2010/02/dalliance-into-hair-discussion.html
Also, my friend Kate has pretty amazing hair, and posts photos of it on Flickr often:

Ah yeah! Thanks duder. My hair ended up somewhere between the Jean Seberg and your friend’s hair. Love the Michelle Williams do, I think blonds have all the fun with short hair because their roots add awesome depth.
the actress, Ginnifer Goodwin is currently sporting an adorable pixie cut and at one point Audrey Tautou chopped off her hair and it looked amazing. these two looks are my favorites.
I am a huge fan of just about anything that aygness deyn does with her hair! http://z.about.com/d/teenfashion/1/0/8/6/-/-/agyness3.jpg
It’s so nice to hear that i am not the only one who does this! it drives the hubs crazy! i always say that i am growing it out and then one day he’ll come home from work and it’s back to pixie!
Shirley Maclaine in The Apartment!
i just cut my hair super-short last month! mia farrow is a good reference point; the hairdresser will have a fair idea of what you want. have them razor cut the perimeter and go back in with scissors after the over-all cut to point-cut the back and use texturizing scissors throughout.
i keep mine styled with the short pixie bangs pushed to the side. it keeps them off of my forehead and gives it a more polished look. highly recommend short haircuts–they take less than a minute to style!
I love it. I did it when I was in my early 20’s and happy to have …I’m old now and need my hair 😉 It hides my wrinkles! DO IT!
How about Twiggy ? [http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/twiggy.jpg]
like natalie portman in the darjeeling limited :] pretty its so bold i wish i could pull that off!
I totally did this too last summer. All of it off. I love Jean Seberg’s hair – I think it’s the inspiration for mose who go for the chop. I also love Ginnifer Goodwin’s chop.
And don’t you just love how easy it is?
Stumbled here when I saw pinwheel instructions (thank you!) but so glad I saw this discussion since I was just admiring Stuart Sutcliffe’s girlfriend Astrid Kirchherr’s cute cut in a Beatles documentary I saw last night: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1846314771/daytrippinmagazi
And as far as brunettes in the nineties go, who didn’t have a hair-crush on Maggie in Northern Exposure? I thought Janine Turner was one of the most stunning women in television then.

I’m glad to know I’m not the only one that loves randomly chopping off her hair and surprising the world. I always grow my hair out really long then chop it off to the point that someone has to do a double take to make sure it was really me. I never really ask someone else their opinion on it because they always say ooooh don’t chop your hair off and it makes me doubt myself. So, I say find the best picture YOU like, take it to the hair dresser and just do it! I’m sure it will look great no matter what!
I have had a pixie-ish cut for some time now and I love it!
I am even thinking bout shaving one side. Well not completely, but having it considerably shorter on the one side.
[…] blog’s header, changed jobs, and am growing out my hair after consulting with you guys to axe it all off. Whew! But you don’t need to know that to read this post. […]
