    I know this is a few years ago, but I was just perusing around the net and found this. Anyway, I just wanted to say, I really like this look! You have a rather stunning face, and the shaved head brings it into focus. Your long hair was also beautiful, but didn’t do as much for your features. And it’s great that you did it all for a good cause!

      Thanks thats so kind, I recently went very short but not buzzed again, but this time it wasn’t nearly as scary!

    honestly you look amazing in that in the first picture look how beautiful your face looks now because of how the whole buzzed look defines your features :o. Are you going to go buzzed again???? you would be committing a crime if you didn’t a crime against fashion.

    Im a little bit confused as to why people gave you donations for having haircut that made you look so good…. if you ever did a charity event like this again you should at least let people throw cream pies at your face so they get there moneys worth just kidding. What you did for charity was so kind of you.

    P.s hope you start blogging on this blog again been reading some of your posts and they are rather interesting if I do say so myself.

      Hi James, thank you for the lovely comments! A crime against fashion, that cracks me up! So basically I had always wanted a buzzcut, but my friends, knowing my tendency toward impulsiveness suggested I make it into a fundraiser, just in case I later regretted it! This was several years ago, but I still get tempted to get a no1 cut again, it was pretty easy getting ready in the morning let me tell you!

    Hey someone sent me a link to this post. Im a hairdresser and Id say you were totally born for super short hair! Your a great example of how short hair can make someone look more feminine as have really great cheekbones and the sharpness of your buzzed hair really sharpens the cheekbones up making your whole face look more elegant. I don’t know what your hair is like at the moment but you totally rock this look. If not buzzed for your next hair style you should definitely try a mia farrow (maybe shorter round the sides as that what gives definition) also accessories like nose studs also really compliment the look do you have one?
    here some inspiration for you 😉

      Hi Katie
      I just got back from holiday and I got your message! Thanks so much, it’s nice to hear that from a hairdresser! I have really long hair now (if you note the date of this post you’ll see why!) and just yesterday I saw a woman with a buzzcut and I was reminiscing. I loved going through all the different stages of growing it back! Thanks for inspiring me!

    Hi you look a million times better with buzzed hair (no offense if you have long hair now but you do 🙂 ) I think that if you have the face for it buzzed hair can really make you look like a top model.

    I came across this post after searching for female “models with shaved hair” on google because I am trying to find some beautiful examples for one of my friends who has cancer and chemo is coming up very soon for her. I am trying to keep her up beat and telling her that hair isn’t everything and infact you can look a lot better without it if you no how.. unfortunately I dont know how… have you got a youtube channel or something where you can tell her how to look so amazing without hair? Though probably would require you to having buzzed hair again but you would totally look number 1 with a number 1 😉 would be awesome if you did.. you could even get on justgiving.com and raise some money.

      Hey Kellie
      Thanks so much for the kind comment. I loved that buzzcut although that was quite a few years ago. I have long hair now (and I have had everything else in between!) but I am so thrilled I can inspire your friend. Confidence is everything and you can look good and graceful hair or no hair!!

    Just found your blog after searching for buzz cuts for women as I was thinking of getting one for myself. Wow its kind of not fair at just how amazing you look with buzzed hair especially in the first pic! In the above comments you mentioned that you have long hair again now.. :O do you have plans of going back to having buzzed hair again? If not why??

    Also to help me decide what are the pros and cons of buzzed hair?

    Thank you:)

    • March 24, 2015 3:01 pm

      I really like my long hair too it’s crazy wild and curly. Still I forget how long it takes! The major pro is just getting ready in like 30mins less time. Depends on your original hair. I say go for it at least the once!!

    You look better with buzzed hair. Why settle for boring long hair why not go buzzed again? 😀 I see that there are some pretty amazing curly wigs out there that look super good why not just settle for both worlds 😉

      • April 8, 2015 3:10 pm

  8. sueeeee permalink
    April 8, 2015 3:47 pm

    You should.. you should. (not often I can use the same sentence twice in a row to answer two separate things). Seeing as this blog post is so popular from allt he above comments you could kill two birds with one stone (not litrally) and post a hair update or something 🙂

    How I came across your blog was like this…I was looking for hair inspiration and well one of the picture from this post came up on google image search and I clicked on it and it took me here. It seems the google bot likes your pic and seems to think your the one of best buzzcut girl around and not wrong 🙂

    I hope you do start blogging again! By the looks of things you reply to all comments you get which is so good when bloggers do that! No blog reader wants to feel left out or as though the blogger is up their own backside 🙂

    Anyway time for me to wonder how I can get a buzzcut myself hehe

    (ps something is wrong with wordpress and its not saving my account)

    Hey I am just messaging you to say wow and I thought it would be nice (give you a little boost confidence) to tell you that I showed this post to one of my friends who works as a photographer and has done shoots for instyle and Glamour magazine (so she obviously knows what she is talking about) and she says that you could easily be a top model with your look and if your in Manchester she will get you into a fashion magazine if you want.

    Well… we are pretty much in awe with your look over here in Manchester! I think your its your shaved hair that really makes you stand out and look so good! Also your hair gives you much more versatility than models with long hair who are stuck with one type of look…whilst you can experiment with a whole range of different looks as it wont be just your hair defining everything. So dont loose the buzz cut.

    Have you done modeling before?

    If you want to get in touch email me!

    • May 27, 2015 1:46 pm

    Hey found this blog after someone pinned one your pics on a pintrest hair inspiration board. Im always so envious when I see women with buzzcuts walking around in town the buzzcut is such a gorgeous look if you can pull it off.
    I have naturally curly hair too and im so tempted to shave it off now or go for a super short pixie..which do I choose?!
    Im getting older and there is something about curly hair that is so aging. Plus it takes so long to style and maintain your options with curly hair are you can either opt for small bush or bigger bush… and once you finally get it looking okay a gust of wind then blows it all over the place and then you end up having a matted tumbleweed look.

    When you went buzz did you find you could do a lot more styles and looks? I guess with short hair you can have a lot more fun with makeup!

    • Imogen permalink
      August 7, 2015 1:18 pm

      Also with a buzzcut is it easy to alternate from buzzcut to pixie and then back to buzzcut again? with long hair switching hair styles would takes years…

    • August 11, 2015 7:31 am

      Hey thanks for your kind comments! I’ve long hair again now and it did take ages to grow back since my curly hair is tight but I enjoyed every stage of it. I would go the whole hog if I were you then pixie cut will be just one stage. Your comments made me laugh you’re right curly hair is high maintenance even if you’re not and can get scraggly easily!! But go for it and good luck. As for piercings I’m not sure I just have some fake ones since (ironically for someone who has a buZzcut) feels like to much conmitment!!

        I have a nose stud it really isnt a huge commitment as you can take it out so easily and simply but it looks great anyway if I do say so myself so I never do. You should go for it you would really suit one you know you wanna 😉

I think sometimes you should just do something because you want to do it and not based on others opinions right? Hehe though its is my opinion that you did find your identity with this buzzed hair dont you think???? and everyone has to find that.

        so I was hunting for hair inspiration for a buzzcut because im so tempted to go for one! I found your blog via pinintrest if I remember correctly.. or somewhere where someone mentioned to have a peek at this amazing buzzcut hair inspiration.
        If you dont mind me asking when you are rebuzzing are you doing it for just a one off or is it a start of a new exciting image and for long terms keeps? It would be awesome if you kept it for good and then did a buzzcut styling blog section or something along those lines. would be so cool! Also if you are keeping the buzzcut longterm what are your plans for maintenance are you just going to be going to the hairdressers every so often or are you rebuzzing it yourself with your own clippers when ever the mood takes you??

      • February 5, 2016 9:19 pm

        That’s interesting. Cool it’s on Pinterest! I haven’t decided whether to keep it that way last time I had every style under the sun and tempted to do that again!

        So your going buzzed again.. that so awesome! Are you excited to be getting back your shaved hair? would you say you like it a lot more than your long hair? I would say that you seriously suit the buzz look a heck of a lot more if you don’t mind me saying.. your long hair kind of drags down your features and doesn’t do your face justice. <<i mean that in the nicest possible way i hope that didnt sound mean or anything.

      • May 1, 2016 5:58 pm

        Hey donjuanile you look fab with the buzzcut! are you when you do shave your hair again whats your plan? are you tempted to just rock it for good? it sure does suit you a lot for it to be a permanent thing.. plus I think buzzcuts are something you can rock at any age and is a lot less aging and so glam and elegant when you get older (Vivienne westwood for example)!! whats your thoughts on all of that? also I want to check back on this blog when you do shave your hair again because I wanna see how it looks so when will that be?? anyway all the best 🙂 em

    You said above to someone else in the comments that your planning on going back to having a buzzcut.. firstly I must say that I think your doing the right thing because you look gorgeous with your hair buzzed! Are you planning on keeping it permanently like that when you have it done? You should give that some serious thought because why loose such an unbelievable and low maintenance hair style?

    Also when are you thinking of shaving your hair so I can check back to this blog and see it (and get proved right because I love getting proved right):)

Do you have any details on what part II?? sounds so cool and I bet you will look great… no wait I know you will look great because you already when you did it above you look amazing! How long did you end up keeping your last buzzcut for and how long are you planning on keeping new and improved version2 for? honestly Id say you should make it a permanent/long term thing because when you got it flaunt it I say!

      • May 4, 2016 8:30 pm

        I know right! Good timing. But actually it’s all the recent comments to this thread that really made me want to do it again. No plan except I will def blog about it!

    Hi, was just wondering do you feel more you with shaved hair and as though it is the look and identity you were meant to have? If so would you say you prefer your hair shaved and dont see yourself ever going back to long hair again (what would be the point because you look so much better with shaved hair it would actually be a step backwards if you grew your hair long again)?? 🙂

    • June 11, 2016 10:32 am

      It’s actually long at the moment. Having big curly hair has become quite an identity. I’m going to get buzzed again soon because I miss it so will be interesting to see if and how it changes perceptions!

    Hi above you mentioned shaving your hair all off again! Wow your going to look totally amazing! Are you planning on keeping the buzz cut for keeps? if so do you have a maintinece plan when you do get the buzz cut?? Do you plan on buying some clippers and just re shaving our hair every 2 weeks or so on number 0? (hehe that actually sounds kind of a fun routine)

    I ask because I actually ponder about shaving my hair off 🙂

    • June 23, 2016 4:49 pm

      Yeah I think I’ll keep for a while maybe dye it lilac or something haha. My friend has a buzz cut so I will probably ask her!

      • June 23, 2016 4:55 pm

        Thnaks for your reply! 🙂 so thrilled for you and lilac sounds like a really creative and amazing color cannot wait to see! How short are going with the buzz cut.. If you ask me I think you should go super short 0 because you have the features for it and look like this model:

        also when you doing it so I know when to check back? also if its for chairty have you got a page I can donate on?

      • June 23, 2016 9:17 pm

        Yeah really short! I need to figure it all out. I love that pic thanks for the inspiration. Will def post here when I do xx

    I wish I didnt have an oddly cucumber shaped head then Id go for it too. Your so lucky your one of those girls where it looks totally gorgeous n I agree with comment above super short just a subtle hint of hair would suit you so much as you have olive skin + incredible cheek bones !! Currently the world is just full of doom and gloom so need an inspiring positivity so id say this week is as good as any to do something like this 🙂

    • June 24, 2016 4:48 pm

    I think you look great with shaved hair! I think your whole face shape and features suit very short hair the best you should vary your hair between shaved and pixie for versatility… for example have your hair shaved super short for a couple months and then grow it into a pixie like this http://jsemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/30-short-pixie-hairstyles-2013-2014-short-hairstyles-2015-very-short-pixie-hairstyles-2016.jpg and then shave it again after a while 🙂

    Stunning and what an super duper thing to do for charity! If I was you i would send that top pic to a modelling agency asap! I read somewhere abov that you are doing it again? I would love to see! Although you probabaly dont have to go to so much trouble with setting everything up nowadays with socila media and all.. on facebook a friend of mine did brave the shave… she just sent out a status about the shave and a link to fundraiser page and she managed to get £500 then she just shaved it the same week and posted a video. simples. 🙂 all the best!

    • October 27, 2016 9:16 am

        oooh do you have an exact date? I wanna check back and see how it goes? Are you excited to be getting back your elegant beautifull buzz again? will you be maintaining it>? (I wonder how often you need to reshave your hair to maintain a buzz cut probabaly in the long term anyway saves you time as long hair takes forever to do everyday)

      • October 27, 2016 11:15 am

        No I bought the clippers but I am actually updating my site and wanna build a bit of buzz around it (see what I did there!)

    Hi yo! I just love your shaved hair you are showing people that women dont have to have long hair to look beautiful and dont need it to hide behind. You really remind me of this model https://www.instagram.com/vendelali/ you have the same features and incredible cheekbones.
    One question what would it take or have you ever thought about just committing to the buzz look for good???? Honestly you should give it a good proper thinking over about because darn you look good with shaved hair!

    • November 28, 2016 8:30 pm

    isnt it illegal to look that good? I am so loving your shaved hair. You mentioned above to someone else that you are wanting to go buzzed for “good” does that mean you would making the shaved look permanent? IMO I think that would be such a good idea because it really does suit you, makes you look more vibrant and distinguished, plus when you get older you wont have to worry about your hair going grey and straw like.

    • December 4, 2016 9:45 pm

    Wow you do look good with shaved hair! I recently shaved my hair and havnt looked back since! If you do it again you should go razor smooth like me as it really does make your features look amazing and if you have olive skin it just is the most gorgous look ever 🙂

    See (this isnt me (I wish) but illustrates my point )

    Also what I do to maintain it is have a really soothing and relaxing bath every sunday and shave my hair whilst in the bath its the easyiest and most realxing thing ever and if you use smelly shaving cream your head smells really nice.

    What do you think? Have I convinced you smooth is best hairstyle ever? I say go for it and dont look back because that beautifull bald women looking back at you in the mirror is you!

    • December 29, 2016 10:41 pm

      I’m a convert! I keep meaning to go fully razed and every time I tell friends they say to organise a fundraiser and I haven’t got round to it! I would love to see how you look! Pretty please?

        Hey donjunila its me again. I will try to find a picture of me. (Truth is when you have a broken camera that makes everything orange.. I can never be bothered to take selfies lol).
        You should do it as a mini fundraiser at your house or something.. you dont even need to invite anyone and then post it on facebook live with regular tweets and get your friends to donate via fundraiser page whislt you do it. I know with my friends that they need atleast 4 years notice to come to any of my mini events or get togethers.
        Also you should put together a mini makeover video or something like those on the tv with a big reveal at the end.. would be epic! Sometimes you just gotta be spontaneous and proactive with these things and go for it! I “DARE you to post on facebook that your shaving your head tommorow donations please” and with that youll have a suprised attack and get more peopels intrest and donations 🙂 go for it!!!!!!!!

      • January 6, 2017 2:44 pm

I think you would actually really suit totally no hair look just imagine how good you would look!

Will it be a charity event or just something your will do one day?

        Oh my days what a transformation you look so hot afterwards. So jel.
        I think you would really suit just cute stubble like this

        when you do it are you making it your new permanent style for years to come? Imagine how stylish you would be when your 50+ and everyone else has really dry grey scraggy hair but theres you looking amazing with shaved hair because I have seen older women with shaved hair rock the shaved hair look and sometimes wrinckles just add even more character.. tis best way to age gracefully in my opinion.

      I agree you would look iconic with no hair and would bring out your features to the next level. Here is another pic which might help that I came across

      Also would you use hair removal cream to keep the look for as long as you want? you could use it instead of shampoo so that you can keep looking gorgous all time with ZERO hassel whatsoever????????????????????

      (Im doing research because I want to do this myself)

    no problem 🙂 It would be a much easier way of keeping your hair smooth and looking aamzing for as long as you want without having to keep on shaving but when you want to mix things up a bit and go for a buzzcut all you do is stop using the cream and your hair grows back as normal a couple days later 🙂
    r you planning on going for the totally smooth look? like that picture I posted theres no doubt that you would look aaaaaammmmaaaaaaazing! you should also keep the look and make it your lasting style too what are the chances of that happening?
