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.

This is how it was Right before it was cut Afterwards

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.

I think it looks great! Ya know what...if people don't like it...they can go scratch lol!!! Its your hair and you have to wear it!! And, its just hair, it grows back. Don't listen to people if they have anything negative to say.

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.

I think it looks so much better and will probably be easier to maintain!

It looks better IMO. Use some different products and you can create different looks.
