Shoulder length is the shortest I would be willing to go for now. I did have mine baove my ears years ago but I like to be able to put it in a ponytail or clip. I am considering shoulder length b.c I have a layer that is about that length and that would make it all the same.

I dreamed the other night I went in for the color and when I looked in the mirrow she had cut it above my ears!!!!

Okay, so don't cut it any shorter than shoulder length!! Maybe just some face framing? The highlights will def make a difference though, so that can be your "crazy!"

Here is today's pic of my haircut...flipped out :)
