That is my hairstyle! Gwyneth stole it from me, because it's so easy and fab. I can say for sure it's the easiest hairstyle in the free world, only requiring a flat iron and a tiny bit of smoothing cream.
I've been admiring her hair while perusing the gossip blogs, myself. If your hair isn't really thick, you should be fine with a flat iron (like everyone said). My hair is too thick and bushy for this to work, unfortunately. Unless I got him to thin the hell out of it somehow.
At the least, judging from your pictures, you'd need to use a flat iron. Sephora has some good ones. They're expensive ($200) but worth it. My hair is curly and the cheap ones don't work that well. I think it would be very flattering on you.
yes! i say go for it. super cute, fun, looks sort of easy. but that's coming from a girl who gets her hair trimmed twice a year and hardly even blow dries it.
um, the Chi Flat Iron completly changed my life. im so not even kidding, i'd do a free infomercial for them. i have mega curly hair and it makes me look exactly like that Gweneth photo (okay, it doesnt take off 20 lbs or dress me in Hermes, but you know what I mean).
seriously, invest in one. ive had mine for over 6 years. looooove it.
I think it's a great look! I cut my hair like this about a year ago & it's not the best with my hair since it has a natural curl, it was so much work to make it look like this everyday. I guess I'm more of a long-haired person myself...but you should go for it!!
i do mine like that... when i do my hair.. which is not alot. you have to flat iron it and it gets super puffy if its humid. but if you are going out it will work for the night. you will have to use some treatments on your hair once a week tho because it fries your hair.
I just got my hair cut like this last weekend and i LOVE it. It is really easy to do...just blow dry and use a flat iron...5 minutes and thats about it :)

Yeah. I like it. I also stole the picture to give to my hairdresser, because I am growing mine back out from the bob I had.

Very cute on Gwynnie, but I don't know how hard it would be to keep up in `real life.' I don't think my hair is straight enough.
ReplyDeleteI say do it. It would be super easy to do. Blow dry and flat iron. And a little hair spray.
ReplyDeletedo it!
ReplyDeletei cut my in december (a bit shorter than that)

and all i use is an GHD flatiron, it did take some practice since i had never really used a flat iron (or even a blow dryer)
do it do it do it do it.
ReplyDeletesuper cute and fun.
and it's not too short. your hair would grow back in < 2 months.
