Snip Snip Goes the Hair

I got a haircut. A long over-due and much needed haircut. I have never had great luck with my hair. Styling it, picking hair cuts, getting it to do what I want. It doesn't ever seem to want to do what I want it to. My hair is thin and oily. And basically just a little sad. It needs some desperate help. Lots and lots of help. And I needed a change. So all this equal hair cut time!

What kind of blog writer would I be if I didn't show you the before? (Not that you haven't seen me a million times in all those week-by-week pregnancy pictures - but I'm sure you're just looking at my growing belly, plus my hair is often up and with good reason.) Well, I apologize for the horribleness of the before picture of how my hair looked before the scissors were taken to it:

Don't blame me for such a bad quality. I realized I didn't have a before picture so I had to snap a quick picture in the bathroom before Edward Scissorhands the nice lady at Great Clips got a hold of my hair. It works doesn't it? Plus in those infomercials you always see the before picture where the person looks horrible and miserable, then the after picture they look amazing and happy. Totally what I was going for here. : )

So what did I do to my hair? Only this....

This is the shortest I've had my had my hair in a long time. I have kept it long and really that's probably not the best for my hair because it is so thin. But what can I say? I like it long. It's not exactly short now, but it is definitely shorter. My head feels lighter and my neck feels cooler. I like it. So that's what matters, right? It was time for a change and a change I got.
