Hey there!
Glad you stopped by.
I think all women go through hair stages, love,hate and everything in between. Today I am sharing the ever so changes of my hair!
short and spikey!
Oh and have I mentioned I have undergone many hair color changes. This was also last summer, with the red look. I have been a blonde…but I can’t find any pictures on my computer to show you.
Now moving onto January/February when I first declared I am growing out my hair.
I liked this, could have lived with it for awhile, but this certainly is not long.
APRIL, not happy having to wear headbands now, really trying hard.
Hated my hair this day. Funny you can remember hating your hair on a day, but can’t remember what you ate yesterday.
It’s starting to grow now….
This was the longest my hair has been in years!
I could not take the maintenance of it, blow dry,
curl, product…who has time for all that?
this is today’s current state
I am thinking about going blonde..
what do you think?
Debbie, you could be bald and still look gorgeous! You are such a cute person that YOU make any hair color or style look terrific. That's the truth! ~ Sarah
I agree with Sarah. You pull off all of those well. My favorites have to be the third pic and the last one. I wish I could pull off those adorable wispy bangs!
I like your last pic. Of course I think long hair is sexy too, and extremely feminine, but that's just me. Personally I luv your smile! Hope you play along today in our 4M's Monday's Music Moves Me! It's Freebie week too. Pick a video/song whatever moves you! Become one of our Spotlight couple next week to if you sign our linky! I'm still stuck on the boogie! What I've chosen is one my old favorites to dance too: "BETTY DAVIS EYES!" ROCK ON!
I wish I had the guts to change my hair more. You have great hair and can really wear different styles well. I love your hair in the 2nd to the last shot. The last shot is great too, just looks like your curled it or is it naturally wavy? Do you style it straight too at the length it is at now? I also love the color!
I like it longer. I think short hair requires more frequent hair cuts. I recently grew my hair longer and like it better. I also wash my hair less frequently and it looks healthier now…who knew? You look fab dahling by the way. hugs♥olive
I think you should keep growing it, if you don't like it then you can always cut it! And don't rule out hair extensions, it's a great way to get long hair fast:)
I had short hair in the mid 80's, I can't say that I really miss that decade tho. Altho I do have a lot of 80's video's saved in my youtube favorites:)
Anywho, either way I agree with the others that you're gorgeous regardless of hair length:)
You look sooooo very pretty!!!! I cut my hair really really short too, remember? Bad hair days- ouch, remind me of something else! I'm getting my hair to grow too! I've always loved waist length, but never went beyond shoulder length ever. Let's see how far this goes this time. I could sure use some inspiration for style from you because we do have the same length right now!
I love the versatility you have with the medium length. You really are good with your hair…mine is curly and looks the same way every day unless I straighten it. The bangs look great with your beautiful eyes!

Your hair looks great. I have had a love hate relationship with my hair. As I get older, I feel I am losing it and that it is getting thinner. Next week, I am going to a new stylist – I have been with the same person for over 25 years!
I AM NO HELP CUZ I LIKE IT BOTH VERY SHORT AND HOW IT IS NOW : )
I really like the one taken outside. So cute on you.
You are so cute! I didn't realize your hair was spikey way back when! I like your hair on the day you hated your hair!!! Very chic, but I like your hair now too and it does make you look young! I love longer hair- but many ladies look adorable with short hair!
I think your hair is adorable! Definitely like it longer- but I'm a long hair girl myself 🙂 I say keep going!
bec@theiheartblog
love the longer hair. Looking back at the short, it looks to rough for you
Debbie, I love the color and style of the next to the last pic. For some reason that looks very stylish to me and the color with your skin and eyes is superb.
Girl, you can work a hairstyle! Seriously…I love 'em all! I can't wait to see what comes next! If you do decide that you don't like your hair longer…I think #6 is so chic!
~Holly
I'm really trying to decide how I like your hair. Spiky was cute but that's not my favorite. I love the last picture here but also like it when the sides were about chin length…and I'm supposing back was a little shorter. Both these flatter your face and really look great on you. I would say which would feels best to you and which one doesn't take forever to fix! I also have very fine hair. Shorter tends to do better on me. I'm working on a new style right now too…still short but a little different. My hair has gone through M-A-N-Y changes through the years….none of which I've really been wild about! Really….you look great in all the pics!
You could pull off any hair cut! It's looking really cute now and I think it does make you look younger ('tis true!). It's fun to change it up. As soon as I grow out my hair, I see cute shorter cuts that I want and vice versa! Luckily my hair grows pretty fast.
Well, Adorable on all counts… but if we are voting, I like #3 & #6 … & what you are wearing now is also great. When I saw it I thought, "Oh Farah is back" I was a hairdresser in the 80's (still am : ) & we did a LOT of that cut… I still like it though, it softens around your face. Shoot, you can always cut again, when you get sick of it.
I like the longer with the shape of your face. Gorgeous all. Oh how I hate to look back at old hairstyles. I'll be looking back at mine now someday. YIKES!
I have very thin hair too..and big ears. That's not a good combination! :o) I think your hair looks great. La
i like em all of course you have a great smile and a lovely face i can say that iam your mom i do however like #3 #6 i think i cant go back i forget lol
Actually, I like it all ways. I love it red. I like the headbands, and I like the last one—looks like you are having fun!
You look great with both shorter and longer hair! But I really love the look you were sporting in the photo you said you were having a "didn't like your hair day". I am sorry it is just so cute! I have to say when I saw the title to your post I was totally expecting some kind of hairy monster thingy to be on your porch! LOL!
Thanks for stopping by and for your comment. Do you live in the upstate area?
I think you look much younger with your hair grown out. It looks very attractive on you. Your hair looks thick and in great shape.
It was nice to meet you.
Debbie with your personality and looks, you can pull off any hairstyle. I am rather partial to long hair and have had it most of my life. I also like the versatility I have with longer hair – up, down, curled, straightened, etc. The only time I have short hair is after a donation to Locks of Love. I am overdue for a donation because I still want some length when I get it cut this time. I especially like your hair in photos 3, 6 and 7.
~ Tracy
totally love the look y ou have going now … but darling you rocked all of the styles!!!
You look lovely with all your choices, however, I do love your current doo:) So cute!!!
I agree, you would look beautiful bald, but I am "REALLY" liking your current cut, it's adorable on you. You seem to have such a fun and vivacious personality and I think the longer, wispy cut suits you well. You are ROCKIN your current look, so don't change it! =) ~Liz
I like the 3rd cut and the last one. I love how you change your hair color and cut…. I could never. I got a butchered haircut when I was 9 and since then I don't really trust anyone. I used to wack of about 12 inches every year. It would still need to be braided. Anywoozzle. You look maaahvellus.
Oh Debbie! I love this post and brought me many smiles! When I turned 40 in April the girls took my picture, because I promised to let it grow for one year! Do you think it is a 40 thing??
I like the length of your hair…how long are you going to let it grow?
Wendy
Debbie, I like your hair now. Keep it that way. I don't remember the last time I cut my hair, lol….Christine
WEll, I think it is darling any of the ways…I like today's do but I also really like the one where you had the headband on and I like the next to last one and even the one you said you didn't like.
I think the next to last one is very classy (classic) looking-chic, if you will…and I think the one today is much more "fun".
You go girl- No matter what you do you can't go wrong because you look lovely in all those cuts/styles! Hugs- Diana
When it's long I want it short, and when it's short I want it long.
I'm partial to a nice, sleek bob.
I can't believe how long your hair has grown in such a short time. You look great in all the styles, but my favorite is the next to the last one; very very chic. Peggy
I told you that you could do it! It is looking so long and pretty! I actually love the picture where you said you hated it! That is a great look with your face shape and features. I would love to see you go longer, but if your hair is thin, it may be more work than you want to put into it. With those gorgeous eyes and that smile, you are beautiful no matter what!
You look great any way, but I love it long! I love short cuts too. I'm still growing mine, but just got a couple inches cut off. I was at the "ponytail all the time" stage and needed something. I've been all colors too, but my hubby prefers darker. Love your red! Cute, cute!
I liked the spunk of the short hair, but I do agree, the longer length is softer.Funny, I really like your hair on your "bad hair day". Looed very feminine. Also the second last pic looked very chique. Like the darker color, too.
And thats my two cents.
You are fortunate to be beautiful, so not one style is bad… 😉
You are beautiful with every hair style! But,the last is my favorite.
Blessings,
Teri
Hi Debbie,
I say longer. You can always snip it later on down the line. I have had every color under the rainbow and shortest to the longest. I personaly think most women over 35 including myself look more girlish in a shoulder length cut. Right now my hair is past my shoulders and I just feel like it drags my face down. I'm 38. I shall be going for a look similar to yours soon and will be looking into some headbands as I think yours are super pretty and feminine!
So not fair that you are one of those blessed people that looks fabulous with short or long hair! I'm no help at all because I like all of them! For me its all about what is easiest to style so I say go with whatever look that is for you.
Vanessa
They're called Sid Dickens Memory Blocks. I guess I should have included that in my post. Mr. Dickens would have appreciated it.
You have the kind of smile I asked my orthodonist for. He didn't deliver. Sigh. You could get away with any hair style. =)
You look good with all of them, but the last two are the best! The color is great too. You have a great smile, don't try to change it!!
You have gorgeous hair and I did not see a bad hair day, but I loved I love the next to last picture…you are beautiful…
I vote January and February. Now remember this, you don't have thin hair you have fine hair…there is a difference, I should know I have fine hair. It's No fun if you don't have a juicy post!
Carol
I know you'll laugh at me because your header has probably been up for a while, but love the header 🙂
I think your hair is adorable in every stage! I like the color right now too 🙂
Debbie~ you wear all the styles well! I love your latest do! Wish I could wear short hair, I love it, but my family all say I look awful with it!
Seriously, you look fabulous!
I loved seeing your hairy journey Debbie. You are beautiful!
Two of my three daughters are in their 40's and my youngest turned 39, this year. They still wear their hair long. I have had short hair since jr high school. I never had the patience to let it grow. Although I've thought about it in my elder years. I've always wanted to have it pulled back in a knot or pony tail…I love that look with silver hair.
You are so dang pretty, your hair looks great everyway you've had it..
well ok, the lighter reddish isnt my favorite but only because it competes with your skin tones..
I think longer hair might work better for you since you can keep your bangs to frame your face and wear the rest up or down in cute doo's depending on your mood of the day… either way, you're beautiful.
Sonny
I think your hair looks great in all your pics! I wish I were more brave, I've had the same hairstyle forever.
Your kitchen do and your car do are very simialr, and I love that look on you. However, I think that you can have the same look with the cut you have now(cause you even said that it was styled differently that day), so the styling to highlight your eyes is wonderful, but I do love how you have it fixed in the last one as well. I liked your hair short, but since I am totally honest, the longer hair makes you look quite a bit younger and it is a softer look. I think you can do it all, but keep in mind what your goal is with your hair(mine is to make me look less fat, the stylist laughs kindly every time, but she is good:))
Debbie, you look great with your hair at any length!
I'm not going to choose a favorite on you because for me, short hair is where it's at. I always feel that short hair is more stylish than long.
You're so danged cute you'd look good with any hairstyle. My favorite is the medium length with the scarf. Your sparkling personality will shine through no matter which you chose…
Did you ever think you would get so many comments on a hair post. Funny. Isn't great to have loyal followers! I am a fan of long hair. I am trying really hard not to cut mine. Most women cut their hair as they age and my hubby keeps telling me not to. We shall see.
I vote for longer 🙂
Thanks so much gals! NO I did not expect this much of a response on a hair post. However, we are gals, and gals love hair makeup and clothes….Thanks again for the opinions, I value them all. I think I am going to keep going and see how far I can get. Keep you posted in the future.:)
Hi Debbie, No matter what the hairstyle you are just beautiful, inside and out! I loved the picture of you that was on the top of your blog when I first met you. Your hair was short and in a headband, it was sassy, funky and oh so cute. That is my favorite picture of you. I have let my hair grow out from my short flippy, razor cut to plain straight hair to my shoulders this past year. It's kinda boring but so easy to get up and go with, if you know what I mean. Since I plan on being on the go at our new house and being on the beach and in boat I'd like to leave it alone for now. But that could change in a minute, I'm known for taking scissors into my own hands (no, I'm not a hair stylist)and cutting it myself on a whim. I do it all the time, was very tempted last week to give myself a trim but I resisted and left it alone. We girls are crazy when it comes to hair and makeup! So no matter what you decide, I will love it cuz you are just as cute as can be!
Hugz,
Kim
I'm pretty sure you look great no matter the hairdo!! But if I have to vote, I choose the last one. You look super duper young in that one and that's always good!
You look great no matter what but I say keep growing!! It is a myth that we have to keep our hair short after 40!! I think longer hair softens the face and detracts from the lines I am beginning to show!! LOVED the 80's, too!
Debbie you are so pretty and you have a great personality you can do anything with your hair. I do like it like it is now though the best. I go through that need a change too and my best friend is my hairdresser so I can go as bold as I want and my hair grows like a weed. It's fun to change things up too.
Hi Debbie. I like the last pic.
You would look gorgeous bald, girl.
I love the fourth one down. I'm going to print that out and take it to my hair-dresser.
She'll probably tell me 'Hey, I'm not a miracle worker here' but it is super cute.
Is your hair thin? Fine? Straight?
OK, just being nosy here!
Looking at your photos, it is not so important how your hair looks like, you have such a charming nice face with the most wonderful smile I have ever seen on a blog.
Last December 2009, I had my hair cut into a bob. It was cute, but it just was not me. I have been growing my hair out since then and now it's past my shoulders. I am not going to cut it. At this point I am going to see how long it will grow. When I was younger it was down to the middle of my back. If it will grow that long again, I will let it. I can always pile it up on my head or wear it in a ponytail. Stick with it, yours will grow too!
Love,
Susan and Bentley
xxoo
I think you hair looks great short and longer. I wish my husband liked short hair!!
Thanks for your visit — now, my husband likes short hair too — but when I mentioned to my hair dresser that I had gotten a new car and it was a convertible — she cut it way too short — it's almost three weeks now and it's still too short. Oh well — it'll grow. Love all your pretty looks — I can't do long, but it looks darling on you.
I love that you got so many comments,that is so cool!
You have pretty eyes and a great smile and look good in all of the pics! I have fine hair too and since I entered my fifties I feel that I look younger with a shorter do. My face looks dragged down when it gets longer.
I think you can get by with any style and look great!
Cindy
I like your current 'do, but I think you are lucky that the really short hair works for you too. I've thought about cutting my short for a long time, but I'm too chicken. My hair takes forever to grow, so if I cut it and hate it, I'll be stuck with it for a long time.
I have given you the Versatile Blogger Award and would love for you to come by and pick it up when you have time.
Here is the direct link:

I like them all but the one I think makes you look so sincere and soft hearted is the current photo. I think it makes ya look younger too. I would say early 30's. Thin fine hair is me and it just doesnt grow out, Speaking of hair my Melaleaca order just came to the door. I was low on shampoo. Love their hair care items My hair is starting to grow!!
Good evening
Can I link to this post please?
Three and Seven are my favorites after your funky, chunky doo you’re sporting now 😉 Blonde could be fun… perfect for Summer 🙂 Then, you can go dark for Fall and Winter. Beauty of short hair 😉
I Love your dark hair I too right now have dark hair lol But to be honest You are a Beautiful Woman and I Love the Picture of you with the blonde hair and the new shirt from Hubby. Gorgeous!!!
