Retro hair

Asking for advice again without having offered any, I feel so selfish.
And I'm not even certain if this is the right place for asking this, but I have awkward hair atm. I shaved part of my hair off to help a friend raise money and it's in that horrible growing out phase, to even it out, I'll have to go quite short, but I really want to keep a look that will work within the 40's/50's genre. Any ideas?

Apologies for the mini-essay but I can't think of simpler phrasing now. Thanking you in advance.:cool:

OP, I moved this post because I think you'll get a quicker response here then in B&C but remember to come back over there and tell us what you've discovered.

Fair play to you shaving some of your head.Do you have any pictures of it currently loks like to give an idea what to recommend. I think possibly a faux hawk might work bbut youll have to go really short. Im no help here sorry.

Hmmm, I'll see, it's grown out quite far, but bits of it are different lengths.


That's what I have to work with right now. Most recent picture where you can actually see the shape of my hair.

only joking.

Your hair looks fine, What about a bob with an undercut, Kind of like Rachael from X-factor had this year.

Wow, I wasn't as brave as that girl.

And I'm letting the undercut grow out you see, which means I'll have to cut the longer bits to match the shorter bits. It's just horribly awkward. Thank you for your advice!

(btw, that pic is after a "rave" in my college bar)
