Shape??
May 8th, 2004 at 5:45pm
 
For the past years I've always cut the ends of my hair straight across-very neat&blunt.I always thought this looked best for my fine hair.
But I've seen several women over the last few weeks who had their ends in the natural ' V' shape,and it looked great.So,I'm beginning to wonder if I should let get my hair into the V-Shape. ???
What do all of you prefer:

V -Shape,blunt ends or U-Shape?Do you think it depends on hair type? I'm really curious Grin

i have fine hair aswell and when my hair was in the natural v-shape, the ends were scraggly and it didnt look nice at all! now i cut straight across but i have thinner hair at the bottom so it doesnt look very blunt. a nice round u-shape is very flattering though...im just cutting mine straight across until the majority of my hair catches up to the longest bits!  Roll Eyes
in my opinion...you cant go wrong with a U  Wink  but if your hair looks good blunt, i'd stick with it  Smiley

Yes,that's exactly what I was wondering about! On the other hand,I think that the V-Shape somehow makes the hair look longer ??? The women I am referring to had around waistlength hair and I felt it looked longer than my past classic-length hair (Well,I'm not sure if that makes sense now ??? )

The V shape makes it harder for me to dust for split ends...there's a lot more varying length. but I guess when hair gets past midback, self-trimming will be easier.

Personally, I usually do not care for the v shape on most ladies.  that is not to say that it never looks nice, sometimes it does-for the most part though it seems to make the ends look thin.  i would prefer to have the ends look thick and healthy than a little longer but thin.

I think the v-shape looks nice from bsl to mid-back, at least on other people, but straight across looks better for waist length or longer.

The only end shape I've ever had is even.

Thanks for your thoughts on shape-Yes,I think it will be easir to maintain if I keep my blunt ends Smiley Smiley
I have taken some new pics of my hair from the back,as soon as the film is developed,I'll post them here (I'm one of the few people who haven't got a digital camera yet Grin)

I would agree.  The longer the hair gets, the better the blunt cut looks.  The ""U" or "V" shapes look nicer on shorter hair.
