Question
I feel like I'm in a style rut and I'm trying to find a new look. My husband hasn't seen me in a while (army) and I want to surprise him with something new and fun.I've been dieting and lost 25 pounds so I really want to suprise him with the new me. I'm not thinking bleach blonde or anything but I'm thinking about going lighter somehow. If you have any style suggestions that would be great too. I have medium to think hair and it is so boring right now. I'll put a link to some pictures on here as well, but my hair is a little bit longer than it is in these pictures. I'm meeting with a stylist on Friday and would love to have some ideas for her. Please help!

Thank you!

Answer
Emily,
 God bless your husband for what he is doing. You don't look like you need to lose 25 pounds, but good for you. As for colour and style, here goes. Just consider some highlights in a deep blonde or butterscotch for some brightness and contrast without being too light. Remember that full head colour requires maintenance every few weeks as the regrowth shows. as for cut, just above shoulder to show more style, with some face framing starting at the cheek or chin, and some layering for a bit of volume. Either cheek or chin starting pint for the face frame will slenderize your face. Don't take this wrong. Your face has a rounder shape naturally, regardless of weight. Cutting the sides by face framing will slim and lengthen the face.
Best of luck to you. BTW, you're a beautiful couple.
Best of luck to you.
