So I got my hair cut last October and it was a BIG deal. I went from this length(I grew it out for Rachel's wedding. It was even longer than this but it was kinda curly that day so you can't tell) :
to a a total of 4 inches cut off (below). For the first time EVER I told the wonderful Chris Ivey to do whatever she wanted. Yup, I let the professional do her thing. I even thought about doing a pixie cut(but we decided that is later on down the road, which makes Chris VERY happy!)
Now, not only is this MUCH shorter, but it's a cut I have never done before because it is stacked in the back, too. If you know me you know I typically always have my hair curly. So I think I straightened it a total of 5 times max and so it's not as noticeable. Then, I was a really good girl and got it cut again in December just to keep the shape. And wouldn't you know that until last week when I wore it straight every day because it wouldn't curl right I had people asking me if I cut my hair. I got tired of explaining it to people, so now it's just a simple "yes".
Isn't it funny what a difference just doing something different to your hair makes?
I am going to have to do the same with my wardrobe. Wear the same thing I always wear but switch it up to make it look new. Sounds like a plan doesn't it? And a very inexpensive one at that! :)
Oh and also, Rachel did not cut her hair this short and probably never will. So no worries if you can't figure out which one is which. Rachel will have her hair back or long and I will be the one with short hair.
