hair - how i hate you. by orange

I wish I had short hair and, more importantly, could pull it off.  I have what people like to kindly refer to as a "round face."  Thus, short hair is umm...very unattractive on me. This weekend I finally fully admitted it to myself - I hate doing my hair.  Absolutlely hate it.  And here is why:

1. I never like my shampoo or conditioner...I think I've tried every product imaginable, but in the end, my hair always feels heavy, like it's got a bit of build up and the hair at the nape of my neck is *always* a bit greasy.  I've tried just about anything to make it not so...but I think it's just meant to be.  Ick.

2. When blow drying my hair, 8 times out of 10, I get overheated.  Which just...sucks.  Especially if like me, you generally hate being hot, with a passion.

3. Blow drying takes time, too much time in the morning.  I value my sleep and thus am usually running behind in the morning.  So after I put on makeup and get dressed (which I do enjoy), taking care of my hair is just too much.  Even if it is just blow drying the top, I still think it's too much time. 

4. Even when I do spend time blow-drying all of my hair, I like it for about 5 min.  Then something happens - wind, rain, oil, etc - and I am not happy with the hair situation.  So, if I only like it for about 5 min - what is the point?!

So, readers - any ideas to cure my deep hatred of blow drying my hair?  Any tips you have?

Here are the hairstyles I deeply am envious of:

I kind of think that I have a face shape similar to Ginnifer Goodwin...which makes me have a sliver of hope that perhaps I could pull off short hair.  But...alas...that probably isn't so.
