My hair is getting really long. And I don't know whether I like it or not. I waffle between wanting to grow it out even longer or else get it cut shorter, grow my bangs out or keep them the same. And it just takes a few more inches til I can wear side braids (a la Alexander Wang Spring Summer 2010). So maybe I'll grow my hair out longer. Hmph. Such stressful decisions in life! Haha!

I love the second photo. I've always wanted to tie a ribbon into my hair in that fashion, but, having recently chopped my hair short I'm unable! Oh dear me.
i've always loved the second photo (well, since i found out about this photo, at least, hehe) <3
and i know what you mean -- i never know what to do with my hair!! i'm thinking of growing my bangs out for the summer, and then getting them cut again when school starts, just to have some versatility =D
Oh boy, do I feel your pain there. I've been having such a hard time figuring out what I want from my hair lately. Up until last year, I had ridiculously long hair (almost to my belly button), but it was so difficult to manage so I chopped it off to my shoulders. Initially, I loved it, but I find myself longing for that long hair again. Seems we can never quite have what we want, eh?
I was struggling with the same issue just yesterday, must be the season. My hair guy talked me into leaving the length, add a few highlights, and a bit of reshaping. It was good advice, today I'm content with my hair again. Braids are way pretty!
Oh, do grow out your hair! It's absolutely fun to tie your hair in a side braid! I promise you that:)
And you can even try other styles like the heidi braid or a messy high bun!

i vote for long hair and braids. i love, love, love that look. i always keep my hair long for summer to keep it out of my face and then get something new for fall.
Hair decisions ARE stressful! They're SUCH a significant element of the picture you present to the world of Who You Are! My vote is let your hair stay long for the summer. When it's long it's easy to wear up or back or braided or something to get it off your face and neck for the high heat of summer...and when it gets cool in the fall, THEN go for a shorter style.
That's *my* seasonal hair opinion, anyway :-)

i am absolutely loving the braided look... cute blog!
your post inspired me to braid my hair! :D
I think you should grow it out! I love long hair! Although, I am thinking about a shorter cut myself.. Kinda like Alexa Chung (although it's a cliche, I think that lenght would look good on me.. )

I wish I had hair like that! I can never do any braids cause they would just fall right out :( My hair's too straight for it's own good.
I just came across your site and it's so lovely <3
LOVE these pictures love!
I love the 2nd pic too.... anyone have tips for how the get the ribbon in to start off? Cos i used to use a bobby pin... but it never stayed in for long. How do you get it in there?
beautiful
a dream with the ribbon.
i LOVE braids too, so much!
i love them the most when they are messy and loose...
my hair is very long too, however recently i cut off about 10 cm. so that was a big thing already.
i've had bangs for a long time, but as my hair is a bit curly i have to straighten my bangs which it hate doing...
so i am in doubt now whether to cut bangs again or not...

my hair is about halfway down my back at the moment. i'm simply not patient or knowledgeable enough to do much with it, so it's usually down. if you find any awesome easy ways of doing hair, please let me/us know!
i'd love to be able to do this some day: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_CvHILfqAUtY/SrrUI_xpDiI/AAAAAAAAECE/q4U7C_U3rFI/s400/9-23-09+012.JPG
@Ingrid: Whoa, that's an awesome hairstyle. Would love to try that someday. Not sure how I would do it on myself though...
