Pembroke_Corgi: I've had mine long for so long. It was always in a pony tail because it was either too hot or it would get in my face all the time. It's time for a change.

krazyaboutkatz: Yeah, that is what I used to do too when it was very short. Just wash, put a little product in and let air dry while I dressed. Before leaving the house, I'd straighten the bangs and front a bit with the dryer and/or iron.

shais_mom: It is thick hair and has always been difficult to manage (especially when long).

jackie: I think I can pull it off or at least I really want to try.

I guess the votes so far have # 1, 3, 4 and 6 at the top. I will choose from those. As much as I love 2 and 3, they will be difficult to maintain because they are so straight. At least the others have a bit of wave in them.

Oh boy, I am getting ansy. My appointment is Saturday the 3rd. I will post a picture when I get back home.
