How Long Have You Been Rocking Your Current Haircut?
partner
It's been too long since
my last trim. It's also probably been too long since I changed
up the general look of my haircut. In fact, now that I think about
it, I've had the same long, layered look for about ...
... seven years. Back in 2002, I had a shorter, flippier hairstyle
with long bangs. I loved them but couldn't get used to the
feeling of the ends grazing my eyelashes; I ended up pinning my
bangs back more often than I wore them down, and once they grew
out, I never looked back.
3 ways to make your bangs pull a disappearing act!
My haircuts since have all been basically the same, give or take a
few inches and degrees of layering.

I am 25 and I think I have had my long layered hair the same way for about 7 yrs. I have always regretted when I cut it as a kid, so I just haven't done it, but I have cut bangs and let them grow back out again and again. I change the way I part it. I straighten it but sometimes I will curl it to make it different. There is just so much you can do with long hair.

I've been rocking the same style for about 8 years now. 8 years ago, I got bold and chopped my hair into a short bob. Before then, my hair has always been almost shoulder length. It was cute for about 2 weeks and I eagerly grew it out!

I've had my cut and color for about 2 years now and I'm still not bored with it. I wear it long & layered, 1/2 red, 1/2 dark brown with blond highlites around my face. Since my hair is naturally wavy, I can wear it straight or curly. Lots of options to play with.

I've been rockin' my do for about 6 weeks! I'm loving it. I finally caved in and got big bangs with lots of layers. It was time for a change and I'm so glad I made it - not it's time for a trim!

My curly hair is unruly!!! It looks great when I want to go out but I cannot leave it down for work. I always have to tie it up because it frizzes at work....same layers for the last decade...but different stylists. I finally found one that I LOVE...instead of chopping off my hair...she cuts a few inches every 3 months...been going there since April...my hair looks great! Even convinced me to start using other products in my hair to tame the frizz! I dye my own hair and haven't gotten tired with that yet...maybe one day I will splurge and get my hair dyed with highlights...still debating!

I have had basically the same haircut since freshmen year in highsshool. I changed the way I part my hair about 2 or 3 months ago. When my bangs grew in I got my hair recut and its the first time in years someone actually noticed that I cut my hair.
I have sideswet bangs that are layered all the way down to my shoulder on on side. I have lots of square layers that start high on my head and work all the way down the length of my hair. I absouletly love this cut and its easy to style and versatile.

I cut all my hair off to a very short buzz cut a little more then a month ago. I do that every so often. I start to grow my hair experiment with different styles and then get tired of it and just cut it all off and start over. I actualy like having almost no hair the best out of all my hair styles I've had. Maybe that's why I keep going back to it.

I've had the same haircut for 10 years. Not looking to change it. It works for me.

I had long hair until I was 23 it was half way down my back, now its barely touching my shoulders. As my life changed I needed to do something so I wouldn't go crazy and a hair cut and some color did it! Long, with a bit of a bang in the front and lots of layers in the back that look so good straight or curly. I have had this cut for a month now.
