The whole beachy waves thing was great. The curls. The fun of it all. At least it was fun until I no longer fixed it. On most days it was in a bun...or a ponytail...or a mess...or basically, not fixed. For weeks I have wanted to do something different, but when I ask, "Hey do you think I should cut my hair?" the reactions were like I asked if I should cut off my right arm.
You're hair? What? Why would you cut it? You can't cut your hair. It's so long.
After a while I felt like Samson from the Bible. Was I going to lose all my superhuman mom strength if I cut it all off? It seriously had me freaked out. I just stopped asking, and made an appointment.
Today, my hair is 9 inches shorter sitting right above my shoulders. I love it. It's easier to manage. I'm sure someday I will grow it back out, but for today I'm rocking the short mom do. At least until I find the ponytail holders I hid from myself.
Pics to follow on a later post. I guess you'll have to catch me out in public for now. That's if you recognize me ;)
Have a great weekend!

were you able to donate it to locks of love? My hair won't grow!!! Seriously it has been the same length for years and ALL I get is a little trim. I think you should text me a pic of your new do because I am impatient!!
I would have given you and immediate YES to cut it off, as I do with everyone that asks if they should chop it off! I am not a long hair type of girl anymore. It is so easy to not have to deal with it. All I do is blow dry my hair and bam it's done!
