Hair experiments - opinions appreciated
 
I've been trying out some different hairstyles on Melanie to try and see which looks right for her. I think I know which I prefer but I'd appreciate it if you folks wouldn't mind taking a look and let me know which you think best suits her.

Short light brown 'boy cut'
http://www.uklovedollforums.co.uk/fo...ictureid=39285
This is the first style I gave Mel straight after I completed work on her.

Long golden blond
http://www.uklovedollforums.co.uk/fo...ictureid=39286
I thought this one was a keeper until I tried some of the others and then wasn't so sure.

Pale blond centre parted
http://www.uklovedollforums.co.uk/fo...ictureid=39287
I don't think this one suits her at all. I originally bought this wig for Katie but it didn't suit her round features either. So, apart from these two brief try out sessions with the girls it is otherwise brand new. If anyone thinks it would work with one of their girls and would like it just pm me and I'll happily send it rather than see it just consigned to the bottom of the wig box.

Red shoulder length bob

You can never have too many redheads.

Long mid brown

Long red

This is another of Katie's old wigs, from her days as a redhead. It was in a bit of a state, badly frizzed and pretty lifeless. However, after washing with a mild shampoo in warm water, shaking out the excess and allowing to air dry, I treated it with a wig treatment oil called Dimples I bought on Ebay. This really revived revived the wig and after a bit of a re-style with electric hair clippers, taking out any remaining frizzy bits, it looks and feels great again.

What do you think?

Well I think the first one suits the shape of her face and brings out her eyes.
So that would be my choice.

This is strange, :confused: I'm normally a lover of long hair. Long hair would almost always be my first choice. I don't mind the constant brushing and 'faffing' as I enjoy it as much as they do.

This would, however, appear to be one of my 'almost always' moments.

The two that I think best suit Melanie, in order of preference, are;

First one. :tu

The shape of her face is counterpointed by the shorter hair, giving a more elegant look.

Yes, it's the boy cut! And that's before I scanned down to look at the replies!:tu:tu

Iloveredheads 18-02-2015 08:58 PM

Long red for the win although a do prefer my wummin with long lushes locks :tu:tu

The first one is my choice:tu It really does suit her face.

The blonde wigs tend to give her eyes a startled look, in my humble yet honest opinion.

At the end of the day it's your choice but so far it's almost unanimous.
