Oh. My. Gosh! If this isn't one of the most annoying things to have to mull over in life, I don't know what is.
Should I cut it short. Should I grow it longer. Blonde. Brunette. Curly. Straight. Up. Down. Should I wash it today. Do I have time to wash it.
Hat.
Hat.
The list goes on and on and its something we as women/girls have to face every single day. I'm guessing that if I were to take a poll, 90% of you would say you would love to just shave it off! Yes? Maybe its just me...and Brittany Spears.
About 5 weeks ago, I made what, to me, was a very big decision. I decided to chop it all off!
Before:
I don't have many pictures loaded onto my new computer, so these ones will have to do.
(This was when I was about 7 months pregnant...who needs a plate?)
I have wanted to cut my hair for about 10 years now. I love long hair so much...on other people. My best for instance, she has awesome hair! I secretly hate her for it.
Kidding, fella!! Love you...and you hair.
Anyway, I think my face looks better with short hair. I know this, because about 5 years ago I went pretty short. However, it wasn't short enough, so instead of looking like Meg Ryan, I looked more like a redneck with a mullet. I don't have a picture to show you. Sorry.

This is what I wanted to look like
This is what I felt like
Egh!!
What was SJH thinking by the way?
So 5 weeks ago, I decided that I hated my hair so much, it didn't matter how bad it might look short, I couldn't possibly hate it more than I already did. Even a mullet!
So, I cut it.
After:
People should not take pictures of themselves while driving |
I LOVE IT!
Very NOT mullet-ish, right?
Little plug for my hair guy, Chris (602-384-3730)
He is amazing! I've been going to him for over 5 years now (yes, he is the one who gave me the mullet, but it was my fault. I didn't let him go short enough)
I can bring a picture to him of a style I like, and even with my curly, thick hair, he has made it happen every time.

Love him.
I love how easy it is.
I love that its off my shoulders and now Brody cant spit up in it.
I love how much less shampoo I use.

I feel like I have a "style" now. Before it felt so boring to me. I wore it the same way every day because it was easy.
Now, I feel like my outfits even look cuter because of my new hair! =)

I'm even thinking about going shorter!
P.S. Excuse the Miller Genuine Draft t-shirt. I bought it at Savers for pajamas...its comfy. =)
Oh man don't get me started! My hair is so thick that it's almost too heavy long! But I love long hair! And speaking of styles, do you get tired of your clothes almost as fast as your hair? Cuz I do! I get an itch to change my wardbrobe about 3x a year (luckily for my hubby I only buy 2nd hand).
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way! I get bored with my clothes. I can buy things and literally two days later stare into my closet thinking, "I have nothing to wear" WHAT IS THAT ABOUT!?!? =)
DeleteOh goodness... hair. It seems to never look how I wish it would! Last night, for the first time since I went short, I finally felt like my hair looked good! Perfect length, just enough natural wave. f.i.n.a.l.l.y.
ReplyDeleteI love your hair short! It looks so great on you :)
Thanks, Brittany!
DeleteI've always thought your hair was so cute, so I'm shocked to hear that you never like how it looks! Just know, the rest of us have a completely different view of you and you hair than you do ;)
Well I had to stalk you ... obviously... Chris did give me the best haircuts I have EVER had, ever...
ReplyDeleteTab I LOVE it on you!!!!
