Poll question: I feel a need to mix it up a bit. That often means cutting my hair (I don't know how it ever got
this long). I'm thinking long bangs. Sorry no before or after pictures as my digital camera does not work.

1. honestly, bangs drive me absolutely crazy, and long bangs would
send me over the edge. I HATE having anything in my eyes ....

Can you try some up-dos, a few other things first, just to mix it up?

Or would you be willing to just go for it, and cut it short?

2. I don't want it short unless I loose a lot of weight. I like it long right now. Long bangs would not
bother me as they would be long enough to put behind my ears.... the rest of my hair would be very, very long.

3. Don't use your lawnmower to do that
The instructions may explicitly warn you not to cut your hair with your lawnmower

But even if the instructions don't actually tell you not to do that, you still shouldn't do it

5. Do not cut your bangs. Shave them off.

6. Really, really short bangs look cool on some women. Not me though. I'd look like a character from
planet of the apes.

9. Try bald. Or near bald.
Some women love it. Bold, stylish (yes), breezy.
It will always grow back. (I'm not a stylist.)
It may be that "change" you're lookin' for. Forget the apes. Rock it.

7. Oh, heck yeah
You can cut your bangs, it's not that difficult and you oughtta know what looks best on you. I have long - well, mid-back - hair too, and semi-long bangs, I just like them to form a sort of contrast around my face. Plus, if you have an up-do, you can either spray them in place, or let them loose for another effect (that's what I do).

I've also trimmed my hair many times. LongHairCommunity forum has a video on it, I forget the name, "Self-Trim something or other", it's some kind of method so you don't get it all uneven in back. When I had about 7 inches lopped off earlier this year, I went to a stylist, but for small trims, it works and saves some bucks.

Good luck!

8. Yeah I cut them. And they do frame my face. I like them long too. I almost always cut my own hair.
Always have.

10. Nobody looks good in bangs.
Nuke 'em.

Bangs should be outlawed on a national level. A federal crime, as is were.
