Your results:
Mostly As: Romantic
You prefer long, loose wavy locks, which bespeaks
an amorous character. You’re very emotional, and matters of the heart run deep
with you. You are gentle, sweet and sincere - a good listener whom your friends
trust and any man would be lucky to call his own.
Mostly Bs: Laid-back
You are a hippy at heart! Styling tools and hair
gel are like a foreign language to you. You are all about going au naturel.
More than three minutes spent on your hair is time wasted that could have been
spent doing something much more spiritually fulfilling, like yoga.
Mostly Cs: Dramatic
You are confident, bold and like to experiment with
styles and colours which means you have a daring side. You hate the norm, are
exhilarated by life’s curve balls and enjoy being in the spotlight for your
unique sense of style and zest for life.
Mostly Ds: Assertive
You prefer refined, polished styling that always
looks professional. You are detail-oriented, if not a bit anal-retentive, and
thrive on order and discipline - right down to believing every hair on your
head has a proper place. You walk tall and speak your mind authoritatively.
