Curly Girl vs. Straight Chick

So, I have a big celebration coming up. Well, it's not that big... but it's still a celebration, so planning is involved. One of those planning aspects is...hair!

I'm getting it cut and colored (still blonde, duh) on Friday. The celebration is on Saturday. I have the option of keeping it straight for the party on Saturday, or I can make it curly again... but I really don't want to. After spending (and my other curly girls can attest to this) a lot of money on getting it professionally blown out (not Keratin/Japanese straightened,) in NYC, the last thing I want to do is wash it the next day. Plus, it's SO soft and fun to have your hair a different way! If I could/had patience, I'd straighten it every day.

So, I will leave it up to you (not the final decision) to give me your opinion on what you think I should do. Again, this is a special day, and I'm so used to my curls that I'm bored with them. Turning 25 doesn't happen more than once! A special look is necessary.

Below, take a look at me with curls, me with straight hair, and what I want my hair to look like on Saturday (a bit of a mix...and not that blonde!) What do you think?



* Note, this is not a promotion for Heidi Montag. I think she's absolutely nuts, but am glad she is separated from her crystal-baring, nude-colored-beareded husband. I just like her hair in this picture. :)

  2. I say go with #3 - do something you may never have done to your hair before! And enjoy!

  3. You tried the straighter and blonder hairdo this past winter and said you didn't like it because you didn't feel like you. Soooo I think you will like the curly OR maybe big curls?? Either way you will look fab!

  4. #3 heidi curls. That's special. My sis did her hair like that on her wedding. It's going to look great on you britt! Not sure if you can sleep on those types of curls well...something to keep in mind & consider...the curls don't last well unless you spray 'em and refrain from tossing and turning on your pillow. ;)

  5. Thanks so much for your input, guys! I'm definitely going to post post-hair pics!
    I'm thinking that it's also going to be tough to sleep (especially, given that I'll be going to the beach on Saturday and will have to pin it up while I'm in the water!) But I'll figure something out... haha

    xoxo

  6. I think the curls look much better. More natural, more fun. Why try to look like anyone other than yourself. Be true to who you are!!
