our own length pix discussion #2

well, if I'm going to do this little compilation of pictures of hair lengths, then here's how its going to be done:

1) I will use the hair lengths that I first read in George Michael's book. Flip, BS, waist, tailbone, & classic. He says these are the standard because these are the natural curves of the body. I guess we could add knee length because that would be the next body curve after classic.

2) The picture should be side view, 3/4 or from the back. Your hair needs to be right there on that spot. Wear something that contrasts with with the color of your hair and something that defines your body shape so we can see those curves. (Well, I don't know how many CURVES Sunsailing has....)

3) And show enough of the rest of yourself so we get a good perspective of how long this hair is. For example:


4) Most of us are not right on these spots, we are inbetweeners and growing out to the next length, so there will only be a few that will even fit this description. A non-current picture will work too.

5)You can email me your pix, if you think it fits these guidelines. thinkfirstt@yahoo.com


6) Curlies wavies and straights all needed. This whole thing has two purposes: first to identify where those standard lengths are that we discuss and second, to inspire - so make the pictures of your best hair. Too bad I can't get a college credit or something from this.....

7) I love you all, but no whining if your picture won't work because your hair is too long!

Anne, that's the first pic I've ever seen of your hair down. How come you don't post more pics more often?

Brenda, I can't see your pic for some reason!

Who! thanks guys! LOL, I was checking in on this thread 'cuz I wanted to look at all the hair pics..and I found these nice compliments..thank you.

I did that pic myself, I used my photo program to black out the background. I would be willing to do that for a few more people if anyone wants theirs done that way, I think it shows the hair better. It's just a cut out put onto a black background. The pics should be clear though to get the best results with the cut out.

Where are all the other photos you guys? I was looking forward to 'em.

::talking to self:: Wow! a compliment from Dweam! my hair idol

anne, it would be neat if you could do that to all the photos and then send them on to thinkfirst. it would give the photos some similiarity and really make the hair "pop"
