A New "Do"

I've been thinking about cutting my hair recently. But I am not very brave when it comes to changing my hair. It takes a while for me to get up the courage to do it, especially if it's going to be a BIG change. Color I'm okay with, because you can change it back; cutting it is a little bit of a bigger deal. After talking to Jake and not really listening much to his opinion - since he made it pretty clear he wasn't very keen on the idea, I decided to do it. So here's the new do....

(The pictures of me aren't the best so please bare with me...)

Before:


During the process:

The first cut: 7 inches

Even more being cut. A total of probably around 9 inches


And... AFTER!



What do you think?! I love it! It feels so light and sooooo different. There's lots of red and blond highlights. Please keep in mind, it will probably never look that good again since Elisha styled it for me but I'll give it a try.


My hair hasn't been this short since the 1st grade when my mom thought it would be a good idea to chop off all my hair and then perm it. Can you say "AFRO"! The pictures are awful, which is probably why I never dared go too short. I still haven't went THAT short and probably never will but I love this style. And Jake says he really likes it too!


Thanks Elisha - you're the best!
