So, my hair is getting thinner and thinner by the year, which is upsetting to me. Everyone tells me I’m crazy and “it’s fine” if I ask, so I stopped asking. In the interest of proving my point, let’s put it this way: my former two inch thick pony tail is now barely 1 inch thick, and my head of hair that used to have trouble finding a part line it was so thick now has scalp showing through. Trust me, it’s thinning. So, since I’m big on just rolling with things when possible, I’m thinking of changing my style a bit so it looks a bit better. Recently I changed my avatar on Twitter for a few days to an old pic of me with bangs. Now, my hair is not that thick any more so I know I can’t pull off that particular bangs look, I’m thinking something a bit different. Let me know what you think.

The bangs that inspired the idea for the change (and that got 127 direct messages on Twitter telling me to go back to bangs. Who knew Twitter cared about my hair that much?)

The thick hair days:

This summer, standing with my friend Gradon:

So now I am in mid perm (I always get a spiral perm. I know, how 80s/90s of me!). That means I either do the winter time usual of trim it and wait for it to grow out so I can perm again without damaging the ends, or change the look.
I’m thinking of this cut, but not sure I have the hair (or face) to pull it off:

And I want to change from my usual natural dark dirty blond color to one of these strawberry blonde reddish ones:

What do you think? Now about the thinning hair part, not looking for advice on that, but about the cut and color? Too much?
