OK ... so I'm really sick of my hair. It's long with layers in it. It looks good if I style it, but I never have time to do so, which means I just end up scrunching it back into a clip, or hastily blow-drying it and tucking it back behind my ears all day in the hopes no one will notice how cruddy it looks.
Anyway -- I'm NOT cutting it. At least not right now. I've had short hair before and I like it a lot, but I'd like to keep my hair long for awhile before going back to short hair. So although I want to do something new, I don't really just want to get a haircut because there isn't much more I can do with it without going drastically shorter. What I was thinking was a perm -- but like a body wave. Something more subtle that would give some oomph to the layers and mean that I wouldn't have to sit there for a half hour with blow dryers and curling iron and hair goop to get any kind of body. I would kind of like something that looks sexier too, because I am sort of feeling right now like I have the sex appeal of the average Holstein.
Any advice? This is what my hair looks like right now. Please kindly ignore how horrible I look and bear in mind it was Christmas morning and I'm not wearing the usual chunks of makeup. My hair isn't styled so you can see what I mean. It is totally flat and lifeless and I'm sick of it.
If you do have any advice, I would really really appreciate links to pictures. I need something to take into the stylist. I've done some searching already but haven't really found anything that I like.
