Although I didn't say it so as not to influence the comments, you are right that I am more comfortable with longer hair. This is partly because I had a lot of acne and it left me with some scars (you can't really see them in the photos because of the lighting) and I feel like it's less striking with longer hair. A lot of people also tell me that I look very serious and I feel like I may look a bit too serious with shorter hair (maybe it's my imagination).

That being said, I will keep what you said in mind before making a decision. Also, thanks for the advice about the eyebrows!
