Hair anxiety

I have a weird phobia about getting my hair cut & haven't had it hair cut in at least a year & a half.  Too many bad hair cuts or stylists that don't seem to listen.  Something needs to be done soon because it looks terrible.
I would like to do something different because I've had a bob for years, but I'm not sure what.  Perhaps the midi?  Something with choppy layers?  My hair has grown to between my shoulders.  I should be able to keep some length on it, but I started growing out my punk rock undercut so I'd have more hair to do things with.  The undercut almost came back this Summer because the heat is terrible here (Virginia). 
The bob is nice & easy.  I don't really have to do anything to it.  I can't spend a lot of time styling my hair because of the way I have to hold my arms (they dislocate).  Short hair is easier to deal with, but I don't feel like I can do as much with it.  I could still do my victory rolls (or roll since one side doesn't like to cooperate) with a longer bob though.   

The faces are covered because I don't remember where I found these pictures.
The hair debate has been going on for months now.  I've looked through books, magazines & online for something that stands out to me.  The styles I love have blunt bangs & I have a bad cowlick.  No fringe for me unless it clips in. 
I went to Bygones today to purchase a few things with my Christmas money & to exchange the lipstick.  They were sold out of the the main thing I wanted, but they did have this: 

They also carry the make-up guide.
I've been meaning to pick this up for a long time, but kept putting it off (or was broke).  I've been looking through it all evening thinking of things to do to my hair. 
Will I finally drag myself to the salon?  I keep trying to make myself call to make an appointment, but I have phone anxiety too.  I have to push past the anxiety.  I admit it's a stupid anxiety trigger, but that's the nature of anxiety disorder.  Maybe if I make the appointment, I'll figure out the rest.
