So last weekend, I cut my hair. $39 and an hour and I had 18 inches less hair. Basically, just about all of my dyed hair (cerca summer of ‘06) was removed, with about 2/3 of it tied together and sent of to Lockes of Love. <3
Well. I haven’t had short hair since elementary school, not that this can really be considered that short. It brushes just past my shoulders. And I have actual bangs now! Not the past-chin length ones I got one day with a few angry minutes in front of the bathroom mirror one night.
I would think it would have felt weird to have such a drastic change, but I don’t feel the shock too much. It’s not that it didn’t hit me - except for a few minutes after the original cut finished, I haven’t felt too conscious of or strange about the new length and style. And I got over the initial weirdness quickly when I asked the stylist to trim a bit more from the back, at which point I fell in love with it. It makes me want to go and get an entirely new wardrobe, and I’ve been wearing much darker shadow since I got it.
It’s ironic, though, that I now have to spend more time on my hair in the mornings now flattening and teasing strangely bend strands back into place than before. I certainly save a lot on conditioner these days (but sometimes squeeze too much out), and my showers are exponentially shorter.
PS. For the curious, I got it done at Visual Image.
PSS. On other news, closing night of the fall production at school was fantabulous. We did Ann-Marie MacDonald’s Goodnight Desdemona, Good Morning Juliet. I wasn’t able to continue as an assistant stage manager, unfortunately, but I’m so glad I did makeup. I wholly heart the entire cast - every one of them are so talented! If you’re curious, there’s a review on it by the Tri-City Voice.

I miss having short hair. When it gets long it gets poofy and I hate it.
I’m sure your’s looks cute though. 
And good on you for sending it to locks of love.
