OT New Haircut
I am testing this out on you because I am afraid I am going to get a lot of crap about this. I have wanted to get my hair cut real short for a long time and every time I mention it to anyone they act like I said I am getting the mark of the beast tattooed on my face. My youngest daughter actually forbid me to cut it and every time I say anything to my boyfriend about wanting to cut my hair his response is always "Just don't cut it too short." Somehow I have a feeling this is what he means.
I'm not unhappy about it even though it's shorter then I wanted. I got to talking to the hair stylist and next thing I knew she had cut a big chunk of it very short and at that point it was too late and I was committed to it. I am just afraid of the reactions I know I will get. It's a huge change even though I used to wear my hair very short for a long time up until a about 5 years ago. I'm not too worried about it because my hair seems to grow very fast so I can see how I like it before I decide to keep it this way or let it grow out.

It looks great! YOU look great! I know we want our loved ones to like what we choose as far as our appearance, but what's most important is how it makes YOU feel. :)

Thank you so much. I am so insecure about it that I thought people were looking at me when I was shopping. I really like not having hair on my shoulders and neck. I almost always wore my hair up in a ponytail anyway to keep it off my neck so this shouldn't be so bad.

I remember the first time I went from long long hair to a short cut. It was in my teens and everyone was shocked. I loved it but let it grow out again. Now I cut it short because I have thin hair that looks thicker and much better short. I love how easy it is to style and take care of since I have to wa**** daily. I like your new do! Give yourself and others a few days to get use to the new you and you may end up keeping it short if you like the ease of short styles. I personally think there is an age where many of us look best with short or shorter hair. Sort of perks us up. It certainly perks me up.
