snip snip!

haircut again yesterday! this was the longest my hair has ever been. nearly down to my waist!! it was actually getting a bit difficult to deal with, quickly turning my head when sitting meant i might get jerked back because it was between me and my chair back, ha.

donate 15 inches braided. a record! i do wish i'd cut my hair a bit shorter but when you give the  stylist almost complete control you end up with what you end up with. oh well, that only means my next haircut will come sooner. :)

haircut

it's been about two years since my last haircut, and you know that means! i should've waited longer this time but t was getting her hair cut at the salon we went to last time so i decided to tag along. next time i know, two years minimum waiting time. also, i'm actually really sad cause the length i got it cut at is my favorite length: just about mid-boob.

the cut is definitely a little shorter than i was expecting (rip says the photo looks longer than irl), but as the stylist was about to cut it, i was worried it might not be long enough, so i told her take as much as she could. of course, she still needed a few inches to work with during styling, so my ponytail came in only a little bit over 10". eeck! which is why this time instead of donating to locks of love (10" minimum) i'll be giving it to pantene's beautiful lengths program (8" minimum).

anyway, i hope i get some sort of acknowledgement of my hair being put to good use. last time, locks of love mailed me a postcard with a really creepy photo a few weeks after i sent in my hair, lol.

locks of love

i started growing my hair out sometime last year because i wanted it long for g's wedding and i finally got it cut off today. yay! i donated about 12 inches of hair to locks of love. this is actually the 4th time i had a dramatic cut, but only the 3rd time i've donated, which is a shame. :( anyway, no before or after pictures (we forgot to get one of the before so there's no point in posting an after). but here's one of my hair:

btw, while locks of love requires a minimum of 10 inches. but pantene's beautiful lengths only require 8 inches, so don't despair if you're a little short.
