Before . . . and After

A while ago I decided to grow out my hair a little more and donate it. Yesterday both Rob and I decided we'd had enough of my hair falling out and and being all over everything (especially after the pregnancy - you lose much more than "the usual" post-pregnancy) - so in the afternoon I went in for a cut.
Before:
I made two major requests to the stylist while showing her styles I like: my hair be shoulder length, and I still want to be able to put most of it back with a rubberband.

After:Now I can't do either. Nice girl, but not the greatest listener.

Damage done:

This is the shortest my hair has EVER been (besides as it was growing out when I was a kid). And we like it--I just hope that I can replicate what the stylist did . . .

What do you think?

You look SO cute and fresh with that new hair cut! It frames your face beautifully and I like the layers. Cool that you are donating your hair too, def. a nice idea :) You look lovely my dear!

Hope all is going well with your husband and new little guy. We miss you out here, any plans on going to visit Rob's family any time soon? :)

I love it! It looks great for summer. Of course your hair is gorgeous long too, but it is going to a good cause.

I love your hair....I totally am there with you about the hair all over the place after pregnancy. Damon keeps bringing pieces he finds to me. I'm so tempted to get it cut like yours now (I used to wear it that way a few years ago). You look great!

I love it! I think that post-baby everyone needs a new cut. The hair loss is amazing.

I love your hair cut! It looks really good on you, so I have to say I'm glad the hair stylist didn't listen to you! I think it's time for me to get a cut as well - can't stand the post-baby hair loss.

So cute! It makes your eyes pop and you'll enjoy it more when Guy starts in on the death grips to your hair (if he hasn't already!).

Teri said...

WOW! It's like it changed the whole shape of your face and frames it amazingly. I like it!

You look really cute. I like it a lot. I'm a fan of short hair. I liked your long hair too though. All cute.
