how short is short?


For a while now I've felt as though my hair was not fitting my personality anymore. Sure, it was fun (and I like to think that I'm fun as well), but there was too much futzing that had to happen. I made the appointment a couple of weeks before. The entire time spent thinking of how I wanted Suzette to cut it. All I could come up with was drastic. I showed up a few minutes early and as luck would have it, she'd finished with her previous client a bit early. She and I sat and flipped through her hair books, looking for anything that jumped at us. She found a couple. I found a few. I looked at her and knew she had a cut in mind. I told her that she was free to do what she saw fit. I'm not sorry I did that. I'm even contemplating shorter next time.

This is a lovely picture! Hair is fun, you can play with it, you can cut it or let it grow. If you do something you don't like, you just have to wait for a while and you can start fresh again. I like my hair long, because I don't want to fuzz, and I hate going to the hairdresser. If you were fun before, now you must be hilarious with your new hair cut! ;o)
