new season, new do.

i did something yesterday that i haven't done in a very very long time. i went to the hair salon. i had very, very long hair. and when my hair got caught in my coat sleeve, i knew that it had to go. haha . and i bet most of you didn't even realize how long my hair was because i always wore it back!
so one of my besties shannon sent me to lab, to see ashley. and let me tell you, she is fabulous! i can see why she's been raved about so much!
i knew i was in good hands.
so to give you an idea of what i brought to work with....


see? i told you! that's about 28" of hair.
so i was pretty happy to be going to the salon. let's just say that. :) and we didn't lose any time...



yikes. that's a lot of hair. haha. but i really like what i've got now... and i knew i would.



yeah, this will be much easier to manage. that is for sure. :) and i can actually wear my hair down without worrying about the worst tangles! as for all of that hair we cut off? i'm going to try to donate it. i know it could be used for a very good cause.  so i've got it all ready to be sent off :) and i have absolutely no regrets.


i have to send a huge thank you to ashley. and i wish you the best time ever on your super awesome trip. so so not jealous here... ;) just remember to come back, because there's a posse of us knitters who need you. and thanks to my girls who encouraged this big step...xo

have you done a drastic cut before? the bonus with this style is that i can still wear it back... if i wanted to... so if you'll excuse me, time to rock spring with my new do. and drink more coffee... xo

  12. big thanks to everyone! i'm still loving the new do so that's a positive thing. :) the fact that i can still put it back makes it feel like it's really not all that different from when it was uber long. :)
