Hair. Debating. Always.

So I've got a much-needed haircut scheduled Friday at Carmen Carmen, and I'm so antsy to get it done.  Way overdue!  I've been barely surviving on bang trims alone, and my last proper haircut was in (eek!) November.  Between the holidays and the busy travel season, this appointment can't get here soon enough.

As always, I'm having the longer v. shorter debate.

On one hand, I like having long hair, I like the flexibility it gives me for wearing it up (topknots, ponytails, braids).  Ian loves it long.  I can put hot rollers in or wear it stick-straight.

On the other hand, I'm just not sold on whether my hair is thick enough to merit a long length.

So thank goodness for the InStyle Hairstyle Try-On app on my iPad (along with a good dose of boredom and a glass of wine)!  I "tried on" a few styles and got a kick out of it.

Um, this could never be my hair, but I sort of wish it was.  Thick, long, layered, subtle highlights.  Gorgeous.

The style above has a lot more volume at the top than I could probably muster, but I like the layers and length.

I love this hairstyle!  Pouf at top, soft curls and layers.  Hmm.  If only I could get my hair to hold a curl like this.

This one is probably my favorite of the mid-length styles.  I like how modern it is, and those long bangs are so cute.  I'm unsure if my bangs would lay that flat.

And same style but in blonde!
Hmmmm.... I think not.
(shudder)

Have you used this tool before?  It's great for a laugh with some girlfriends!
