After almost a year and a half I finally went and got my hair cut. In an effort to avoid spending a ton of money, I contacted a hairdressing school nearby and inquired about their services. I will most definitely be going back. It was amazing. I got a wash, cut, and dry for nine bucks. It was a student who washed my hair and did the basic cutting but the supervising teacher did the consult with me (he told me that the style I wanted was great for me but that I should leave it one or two inches shorter than the picture I had brought in with me) and he also did the final touches and the styling for me.
I am so incredibly happy with it. I’m just enjoying the fact that my hair which was so ridiculously heavy and halfway down my back is now swinging lightly at about my jaw with lots of flitty layers. If you watch The View at all, it’s more or less the same style that Elizabeth has; although her beliefs often clash mightily with mine, I really love her hair.

I seriously needed this.
WOW!!!! It looks great! That’s a the perfect style for you. Very nice!
How does George feel about your new look?
Woot! You look incredible! (cute baby cameo, too ;p)
I love it, you look great! You look younger too, which is always a good thing in my book (not that you look old or anything….) 🙂
wow, you look gorgeous! love the hair!
You look so happy with the cut, it does look like it took a weight off
that’s gorgeous!!
Wow! No joke, you look fabulous. Unbelievable what a difference it makes! You look so cosmo, like something out of Vogue. Perfect cut for you. Really beautiful.
Cute cute CUTE! 😀 I love it.
It looks AWESOME! Do you just feel FREE? I know I felt so much lighter and freer when I recently cut a bunch of my hair off. And now? I’m thinking about doing it again (even though the big chop was only LAST MONTH). The only thing causing pause is The Man, who likes long hair. He’ll be fine with whatever, and hasn’t minded terribly when I’ve gone short in the past, but I know he likes it longer so I try to keep that in mind. How does yours feel about your short hair?
Your new hair cut looks wonderful!
It looks great! I definitely agree you look younger.
LOVE the hair!! It frames your face so well!!!
What is it about shorter hair that is so sassy and empowering?
Mine has been short and sassy for so long………
We need all the help we can get sometimes.
Yours looks great!

You look hot:)
You wear shorter hair very well. I just look butch!
I love it! It looks great!
Very sophisticated looking! It suits you. Sigh, wish I could get mine cut, too. I haven’t had it done since before Mikro was born (though I have hacked it myself, and it shows…)
