pixie cut--two month update

so...two months, no trims.  i've definitely hit the awkward "what in the world do i do with it" phase.  today i straightened it for the first time since i got it cut so i thought i'd post the comparison pics.




...and the other side.





now people, he honest with me.  do i, or do i not, have a mullet??  i want to give it at least another month before i trim it (mostly because i don't know what to trim it into...i don't want to just cut it all off and lose the last 2 months of growth), but i fear we are entering mullet territory.

i would also like to get my bangs trimmed (considering trying to do it myself, armed with nothing but a pair of cheap scissors and some youtube tutorials) and my hair dyed to match the roots that are coming in (which i will not do myself; i've had too many bad experiences).

when it's not straightened, it doesn't look quite so mullety.  but i'm having issues with the back (longest part) of my hair so i'm thinking it may be time to trim it into a very short bob.  or something.

pictures and ideas welcome.





that's really all i have to say about that.

  1. I don't think you have a mullet. I like how it looks. But, I did see this girl ( http://www.maybematilda.com/2012/09/growing-out-pixie-cut-one-year-later.html ) and I like the way she grew hers out. She cut off the back and grew it out in an a-line for awhile. I have major mullet hair because I got all my hair super short and I have like 3 rat tails off the back now. It feels like if I go in for any type of trim though I will be erasing everything I've worked so hard for! (since "working hard" has entailed not making it to the salon and not paying my hair stylist because I'm cheap)

  2. I still think yours looks great. And I feel like mine looks more mullet-y when I don't actually do it, haha.

  3. Use cute headbands while growing it longer. That's what I'm doing and my hair is very similar to yours. Lots of different lengths. I'm waiting for my shortest side to get to my neck and then getting it all evened out. Good luck
