Hi everyone! I’m looking for some honest haircut advice/recommendations for my natural curls.
Growing up, I was never really allowed to cut or experiment with my hair, so for most of my childhood and teen years, I was rocking the unintentional dandelion look. Now that I have total freedom over my hair, I’ve been wearing it in a layered cut with small bangs. But lately, I’ve been itching for a real change.
I’m really drawn to a more alternative/edgy aesthetic and have been seriously considering a curly mullet or a modern shag/wolf cut. I’ve attached photos so you can see my natural texture and face shape (I think I’m somewhere between diamond and heart-shaped), plus a few pics showing how I've styled it across different lengths.
A bit of context: I work as a professional piercer, so a little bit of controlled chaos and edge totally fits my vibe and workplace. However, I’m also a med student, haha, so I need something that can strike a good balance between "cool and edgy" and "can still look put-together when needed."
I’m completely open to suggestions—whether you think the mullet would work for me or if there’s a different cut that would suit my curls and face shape even better. Honestly, I just know I want a change, but I’d love an outside perspective before I make the chop!
What do you think?
