Ever have the urge to get choppy layers, create bangs or simply become a blond? Take these impulses as a sign that you should freshen your look with a new haircut. But knowing exactly when to make such a risky and pricey commitment is tough. How do you tell l when you absolutely must take the plunge with a new do.
Here's a few telltale signs:
If you put your hair in a ponytail almost everyday—even for a night out—it’s definitely time for something a bit more fashionable. Opt for a blunt shorter cut, so you’re less likely to grab for that hair tie.
There’s nothing sexy about hair that looks limp and lifeless. So it’s time for a salon visit when you discover your hair is not doing anything except laying flat against your head. Opting for layers or side-swept bangs could help give your tired hair a fresh feel.
You dyed your locks months ago, but now that your well-intentioned deep brunet looks more like your aunt’s fiery red it may be time for a change. Since most hair color fades gradually, it’s important to keep tabs on when you last colored your tresses and use gentle color-safe shampoos. Maintain color by re-dyeing every 6 to 8 weeks.
If you spend too much time laboring over your haircut, you're probably due for a new one. When it feels like it takes too much work or [too many] hairstyling products to make it look right it's time for a change.
While there’s nothing wrong with buying a new pair or shoes or a handbad to lift your spirits but a brand new haircut can also can make you smile. A new look can alter your outlook on life.
