More ch-ch-ch-changes

So you see that picture of me over there ----------------------------->

Yeah...here's a confession...I haven't looked like that for over two and a half years. In fact, for over a year now, I've worn my hair in a pony tail.

So...I decided to do something about it.



I now present to you my totally short hair cut as represented in an awful photo taken with my cell phone that is most likely going to be the only photo ever taken of my new hair since now that I've washed it it won't ever be as smooth and shiny as that first day:

It was quite shocking to wash my hair and feel NOTHING in the back...especially after practically fainting in the shower from how heavy my hair USED to be to wash.

And I'm well aware that a shorter haircut requires way. more. maintenance. and we're about to introduce even more crazy into our house in about two months...but I can honestly tell you that I will NOT leave the house with crazy pants hair. I. Will. Not. So it is either take-the-time-to-do-it or put it in a ponytail. The latter of which is clearly not an option.

So, here's to drastic changes and commitments to not leaving the house looking like a schlub!!

PS - you can read about the FIRST time I made this drastic decision on this old post: Changes

  1. LOVE the new cut! It's so chic and stylish!

    P.S. — I did a double-take when I saw the picture of your cut-off ponytail...because I swear it looked like a guinea pig at first glance!
