Hi Stefanie.
The hair on this model appears to have thick, curly (either natural or influenced) hair that is more of a medium length, yet probably not quite to her shoulders. Should she have any layering, they would be longer, with only feathering or layering along the bottom inch or so. Are your layers long, or grown out? Or do you have short layering on the top? If it's the latter, then your hair wouldn't be impossible to style this way. However, it wouldn't have the same affect. (i.e. front hairline and the sweeping of longer bangs)
Does your hair hold curl for any length of time? If so, I'd take this to your stylist and ask her to try it out on you for you to wear for a day to really give it good test. Of course tell him or her why so they can really charge up your hair with products. Or, if you prefer to DIY, have a friend help you mousse it up, curl it up and fasten back as shown with your preference of a hairband. The ends are then arranged in messy style with (probably) hair wax or paste and pins.
Giving your stylist, or your friend, some time to try it out would be best to ease your mind and to see if your hair type will hold out. Have fun and let us know how your experimenting works out.
