side fringes are good for thick hair. my hair is thick and wavy a little like yours and a side fringe is very flattering and takes some of the weight out of the main part of the hair.

just do it. the good thing about side fringes is that you can pin them back and they take next to no time to grow out.

Mandy Moore's hair is quite pretty, except her face is oval, while yours is more round.

But go with whatever you feel is right. Seriously, you don't need people on the internet telling you what haircut to get.

And post pics when you're done

[alby]

alley: yeah, i'll probably get one

rei: i'm only asking caus i wouldnt have a clue what suits me
who's got a similar face shape to me?

[my sharona]

Drew Barrymore and Charlotte Church are the only two who come to mind.

yeash, i reckon Mandy Moores hairstyle would look good on you... but i dont know about the colour, it would quite possibly wash you out...

[alby]

mandy's colour might wash me out a little bit....but my hair used to be this colour so it shouldnt be too bad:


rei: i dont think drew's hair would suit me. what about someone like nat portman, tammin sursok or catherine zeta-jones?

i like this, but i think maybe some highlights red-ish?

[mmm_sofay]

i reakon zeta-jones colour with red highlights would actually look realleh good on you.

[PerfectByNature]

yeah, that would prob look good.
you really are very pretty

[alby]

i'm just mucking round with combos here....what about something like:
this (maybe with some highlights) on a or b (probably a bit shorter)

thanks perfect

[PerfectByNature]

aww... i cant see those pics... can you post them another way... stupid school computers

one thing you have to bear in mind, when looking at celebrity hairstyles, is that they have their hair and makeup touched up like every three minute. By professionals. Your hair may look kickass right after it's been done but you need something that you can manage in the longer term.

kaylz: yeah, i know. my hair looked awesome just after she did it (also caus she's got a good straightner), but the day after it started to look a bit average. now that i havent gone to her for a couple of months (last time was feb-ish) and i probably havent been taking the best care of my hair, its looking pretty bad.

i'll probably talk to my hairdresser in the holidays (when i've got time) and see what she sugests

From what i gather, you want a long sweeping side fringe.

Just be aware that to have a long fringe (i.e. over your eyebrows) you have to manage it. It gets pretty dirty easily, gets in your eyes, mine needs blowdrying every day so that it doesn't get all stringy or messy.

So yeah, go for it and don't look back.

[alby]

i think i want a sweeping one, but i dont want it too long (ie. a bit shorter than this one. i was thinking one that reaches my eyebrows or just past as apposed to one that's long enough to get in my eyes

thanks for the help/suggestions guys

be careful, side fringes that short can make your skin oily and you need to wash it more often than you would normally. Also, if you have any kinks/curl in your hair the shorter you cut it the more curlier it (generally, i seem to be the exception to this rule) will be so make sure you've got a good hairdryer/brush/straightener if necessary.

oh also, does anyone know what the treatment is where they sort of perm your hair but only so it goes slightly wavy and not tight curls? I want to do some research on prices and stuff but have no idea what its called.
