well as u know i wanted the katie pic when she first cut it too but held off b/c im a puss. i finally did cut it the bangs at least and left the rest longer, and i do like it, however i decided to let it grow back out for the wedding. as far as the maintenance, it only takes an additional 10, maybe, to do so i wouldn't worry about that. i say go for it. you are always open to new things so go for it. its only hair and it will grow back. shoot, you had a pixie cut before so what are you worried about! u can pull anything off. you already had the other cuts posted, jenny's etc. plus everyone has that style now anyway so id say go for the bangs. its chic as someone mentioned earlier. i think you have the perfect face for it, you always look stylish so this will just add to that. one thing i did do was razor my hair and im mad about that, ill never do that again. i wouldnt do that if your hair is thin. mine thick and it makes it all flippy and i cant stand it when it gets flippy.
