Ta-da! I decided to chop off most of my hair over the weekend. Originally, I planned on just cutting it to my shoulders but one thing led to another and suddenly I had a bob! I haven't had hair this short since the Disastrous Bob-cut of 1998, but I have been feeling persnickety lately and just wanted something DIFFERENT.
I use heck of a lot less shampoo now and I must admit that it is very easy to maintain! I don't straighten my hair every morning, it just curls in by itself most of the time - thanks to my favorite-awesome hairdresser dude, Juno. All I need to do is comb it out a bit and stick a hairband on if it's particularly frizzy. I thought I would hate having hair in my face, but since it is so short, it actually doesn't bother me at all. I think most girls (me included), have a bit of a phobia having super short hair; longer hair is seen as shmexier and more universally flattering I suppose ^_^;; Worst comes to worst, hair always grows back too~ Basically, I am glad I took the jump and I think I will actually be keeping my hair above shoulder length for at least another year. Having so little hair will be so nice in the summer too. Yah yah yah!

Ultimately, I will be growing it out about 1-2 inches to match Hairstyle #11 from this post. Partly because the people who voted in that poll liked that haircut the most :D and partly because I want to be able tie back more of my hair. Right now I can only make a ponytail with half my hair :( :(




Doesn't it feel... light... easy.. liberating? I did the same thing a while back and I LOVED it. However, I hated growing it out to a longer length (bf prefers it longer) because it would go through the awkward length stage.
ReplyDeletewow!!! awesome change :D i love your new haircut!!! it feels very strange at first, no? i chopped off all my hair once and when i washed it the first time after cutting, it felt so weird lol
