here is my LONG curly hair.

(remember-it's curly, so when it's straightened it's way longer than it looks in these picture)
this is what happens to long curly hair in England--
and so this is what happens by the end of EVERY day...
I am feeling frumpyness in my hair. And I'm not old enough to be calling myself frumpy.
So...
Do I cut it? or do I leave it? I'm finding that I often put it up in a bun...in this weather it's the only thing that I can do with it....so maybe i should keep it long for easiness? and can curly hair be short and not be...humongous? what do I do? more layers? bangs? what have you seen other curly haired people doing? what are you doing?
How do I get out of this...hair-rut?
help.
