hair help, pics included...Update did it w/pic

sorry for the bad lighting.  I kept it a little longer, thinking its easier to go shorter if I want.  So far I like it.

Ok I was hoping you girls could help me, seeing as my pros/cons list is not working.  I am debating cutting my hair, ala Katie Holmes.  But I can't decide.  The only difference is I would keep it longer, more like just below the chin to just above the shoulders.  I'll share some of my list with you, and tell me what you all think:
Pros:
It's a cute cut...right?
It's a change.
I seriously can not stop thinking about it.
It's only hair, and I will probably still be able to pull it back.
It will probably take less time to blowdry/style than the 40+ minutes it takes now.
Cons:
I've been growing my hair out.
Sometimes I use my hair as a security blanket.
I might have to wash it every day at that length, where now sometimes I can go 2 days between.
I will need to stly it everyday, though this is not too big an issue for me.
Here's pics, what do you all think?

I think that cut would look great on you!  You've got the perfect hair and face shape for that cut.  Besides, if you're not THRILLED with it, it will always grow back...but I don't think you'll regret it!

do you mean like a wedge?  I guess it depends on how lng I keep the front, but I will somewhat.

eta: yes, I looked it up an inverted bob is what I am thinking.

I think it will look great esp since you already have the blunt bangs, it wont be so dramatic as well. Try cutting about 3" and viola!

You won't regret it, you have the same shape already.
 
Last week I went from this:
 
To this:



I toiled over it for MONTHS but it looks and feels great.  I regret not doing it sooner!

i think the length of the cut itself would be really cute, but i would either wear a bit softer of a bang at a longer length, or sidesweep them. i think heavy blunt bangs are kind of hard to work on a lot of people.

 I agree with this. And if you decide to stay with the blunt bang (which I like as well, don't get me wrong), I think you should grow them longer (like eyebrow-grazing), because I find that more flattering on most people too.

The length is really cute though! You should definitely do it!

I was going to say you will need to grow your bangs out for the katie cut. But otherwise it will look cute.

I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That length is pretty much perfect for your face, I don't think I'd go any shorter.
