hairstyles for fine hair - what it might look like

I was wondering about ways to see what any of the hairstyles for fine hair might look like and started to do some research.

I had a look at many resources available online, getting a feel for the alternatives. What I wanted was something that woudl show the haircut and also provide a little more than just the look of the cut.

The criteria were.

1. Easy to use
2. Something that could be personalised
3. Somewhere that was more than just a hairstyle preview.
4. Provided some feedback on hairstyles choices

I found an excellent site, which permits the use of existing images, or an upload of a personal photograph with lots of choice in hair detail, length, fineness, density, color, face shape, etc.

The feedback on the site has been very good.
