I need hair help!

[DevinGirl]

I've always usually had really great hair. I recently darkened it. I used to have thick chunks that were about 3 different colors. Now it just looks...I dunno, off. I like the way the dark color suits my features however. I think it may be the cut. I'm trying to grow it out, & I know the grow-out process is never fun. There must be an idea that can help me from looking like this though! I usually like styles that are longer toward the front & short in the back. I like this cut:

Now here's what I'm working with. I know I need to let it grow out to achieve the above style, but...there's gotta be something I can do now!)







Please help! Thanks for reading/looking!

I'm really not that great with hair honestly (except for basics like short vs long and maybe hair color ideas)... I just wanted to let you know that your hair is beautiful right now. I think you could work maybe like side sweeping most of your bangs and teasing the back of your hair...
