New Do

I had a "hairy"!!

My hair has been long, and the same style for about 2 years now... time for a change?! I don't think I look too different, so hopefully Tiny won't freak out (what am I saying?!! she'll freak out, regardless?!!!)
This was me, Christmas Day... (I've cut myself out of our family photo. I put this family photo in the front of Tiny's "Who Loves Baby" album)
This is the new do... straightened... straight from the Hairdresser (a guy at work says he thought I was going "emo"?!!!!)



This is me this morning, after I washed it, and decided to see how I look "shaggy'... (doing some "test styles" in case I don't take my straightener to China... hmmmm.... if only I didn't have a halo of frizz.

I like it short. Its easy to do. It's alot "lighter" (I have thick hair... and alot of it... its like a blanket in summer!) And I lose far less hair, when its short - which then makes cleaning up, much easier!

Mine is frizzy but fine. I use a product from Sunsilk called Straighten Up. I think that is what it is called anyway. Just a dap of the cream helps straighten the hair. I blowdry it with a ceramic round brush and it turns out great. Most of the time!
I never used a straightener in China, but I did take my curling iron. I didn't use it much. I kind of just let it go natural some days. No use fighting in the humidity! But we went in September.
have fun experiementing with styles.

I like your short look. It's so funny how everyone gets a referral ... and then promptly cuts their hair off! LOL! I'm planning on a much shorter length for motherhood myself.

Love the short look, but with your beautiful eyes either looked good. I'm a short hair person myself, haven't had long hair in 35 years and would never go back... Tiny will be seeing the love on your face and not your hair length..Can't wait... Linda

I LOVE it! You look so sassy!!!!!
Speaking of straighteners....I heard you can't take them to China because they blow fuses?! I'm freaking out about this...I NEED MY STRAIGHTENER! Would yours work in China???? If so, I need to buy one from Australia!!! I'm serious.

Very hip, "contemporary"! I like it!
I went in for a hair-trim (that is a misnomer, I ONLY go in to have my color put on, been all gray since my late 30's), right after our referral, so my hair stylist/colorist says, time to cut off a few inches for the trip, right? I said go for it. You guys don't know thick-frizz until you have been around my hair. So, it is shorter (just at my shoulders). You will be so glad you cut off some length. Yes, lots less hair for clean up time!
