It's just hair

As long as I can remember, I've had somewhat long hair.  Some would say, my aunt and sister in particuiar, that I'm a bit anal about my hair.  I think it's a comfort thing with me...it's long and covers my neck and shoulders and I can put it in a ponytail.  Whatever right?  

Although it's been long for so long (haha), I have been pretty much every color...brunette, red and even blonde (Let's just say the hubby wasn't a fan of that one.).  I've had highlights, all over color...I'm not really daring, but I haven't been afraid of color...especially the last few years with all of the "sparkles" that have been growing in. (I know that it's really gray, but I refuse to call them that! ) 

So, a few months ago, I got to the point where I just wanted to cut my hair...like chop it off.  So, I mentioned it to Meghan one day and you would've thought I was talking about killing her!  Wow!! There was a lot of "No Mommy!!!" and "we won't have long hair together" comments from her.  I thought she would want to cut her's too, but not quite.  

So, after a few weeks of pouring over pictures and pictures of short cuts, and sending them to Adam for his thoughts, I finally made the appointment.  I honestly didn't think my aunt Teresa would be so happy, but she was!! So, she put my hair in 2 little ponytails and cut 7" off!!! 7"!!! Wow!!! I also donated that hair to Children with Hair Loss.  That felt good! :) 



So, after all that, I love the cut...and Meghan said she finally likes it too...but she's still not cutting hers!! :)
