I cut off all my hair!! Ok not all of it, but a good TWELVE inches or more!! I took this one with my phone, but will try to get some better ones this weekend. I decided to do it for a few reasons.
1. I think it is good to mix it up every now and then. Plus I am still young enogh that I can grow it out super long again before it will make me look old and washed out.
2. What a great cause! I have 2 co-workers/mentors whose wives have been fighting breast cancer. One unfortunately lost his wife in October. My grandmother also was just diagnosed with Lung Cancer. Who knows if she will choose to fight it or not. She's been smoking since she was 12 and she is 80 now. Another reason to HATE CIGARETTES!!!
3. I am turning 25 this year!! I felt the need to do something big to comemorate it!
I am surprised by how few people have even noticed. Of course Randall and close friends have noticed, but it is funny. You'd think if someone had a foot-long pony tail one day and then zip the next it would make a difference. May-be I think too much of myself. I suppose I don't really care about any one else's hair except mine and Randall's, and with his I am just happy as long as it is on his head. Almost 30 and still a full head of hair (especially having grown up with an extremely bald father) is great! HA!
I really thought I would my miss long locks, but I really don't at all. May-be it is because I have had my hair this short before. I still feel like me. I bet it would be different if I had had long hair my whole life and just decided to go for it. I definitely won't be likened to Kim Kardashian anymore (although the one time it did happen it was in TJ Max and it was a black girl and I had on a sassy dress, so that probably doesn't really count).
