The New Haircut

Well I did it.

I went in to my hairdressers and asked him to cut my hair off. He seemed excited for the chance while I was shaking. Trying to remind myself that it is just hair.

Anyways I didn't go with the style I posted, i choose something that has more volume up top cause my thin hair needs it lol. Although I can't get the volume my hairdresser was able to get...yet. I'm working on it.









Be nice! I'm still not used to my hair being short and when I look in the mirror I still do a double take but so far I'm liking it. I like that it doesn't take a long time to do my hair, I like that I had the balls to cut my hair off!

I'm worried about what to do to grow it out (I think I am going to stick with short hair for awhile though) when I choose too. But I think what I might do is get the short hairstyle I was going to get in the other post because it matches my old hair a little more. That's the plan I have for now anyways.

It is weird to not have hair everywhere, I still move my "hair" out of my face when I eat or sleep and then get really happy that there is no hair to move! I also need to remember that I do not need the same amount of shampoo and conditioner anymore lol.

Many people wont like my hair, I'm sure of it. I will get the "Your hair was better longer" etc talk but you know what? Screw 'em! It's my hair, my head! I LIKE my hair. I had a hard time telling myself that with long hair or short my head was still huge. Once I accepted that I felt a lot more ready to go ahead with it.

Like I said, the only problem I am having now is styling it. I am not used to styling my hair, I always had my hair straight or curled (and curled was just some gel and off I go). I never used sculpting gel or hairspray before so I'm still figuring out how much to use and how to move the hair the way I want. That I...ME...can actually make my hair move and style the way I want. It's an odd feeling.

I called my mom up yesterday after my haircut and this is what was said:

Me: I did something today
Mom:What? You got a tattoo *sigh*
Me:No but I wish!
Mom: A piercing!! *louder sigh*
Me: I cut all my hair off!
Mom: You shaved your head!! (cue hysteria)
Me: Noooo! Just got it cut really really short.
Mom: How short?
Me:Short
Mom:Really? (acceptance) And?
Me: I like it...I think. It's...it's different. I'm glad I did it though. After thinking about it for over a year it was about time.
Mom: Well I'll see it next weekend right!?
Me: Yup! Now I just need to go get a new piercing!
Mom: NO!! No more holes in your body!!
Me: *laughing*


My poor mom. I traumatize her too much :)

O and this weekend I'm dyeing my hair lol. I think it needs to be darker with the length it is now.
