The Before shot. I pulled my hair all the way to the front so you can see just how long it really was - the longest layers were almost to the middle of my back.
My stylist, Kathleen, put my hair into two braids so there would be more usable hair for the donation.
Then it was time to cut it off!
I kept telling her to go shorter. I wanted it to be all about my bangs and not very much left in the back.
It turned out pretty cute!
Secretly, I ended up trimming it a bit at home - the sideburn thingys and I made my bangs a little more even instead of the asymmetrical thing Kathleen did (which was per one of my pictures, but I decided when I got home that I didn't like it after all).
I also got rid of my brassy, blonde-ish highlights to make it a little more edgy, a little less suburban (I may live in the suburbs, but I don't like to look that way)
And here's the final product! (picture taken two days later)
I do really like my new cut and am thinking about keeping it short for quite a while, though it is pretty hard to figure out what to wear to avoid the whole suburban look. But I'm getting used to it. It's good stuff.
I couldn't have done it without these women! So lucky to have them in my life. Mwah!
