Yes, this is a daily challenge!!! LOL
I've been growing my hair for over three years now and its down to the middle of my back. My hair is VERY VERY thick and has lots of body and waves to it. Its not, unfortunately, straight, like I want it to be. Its not curly either. Its just very thick and wavy. Which is not what I want it to be. But our hair never is, is it?
I need to cut it. I've been needing to cut it for about 9 months now and haven't done it.
So this weekend, I'm going to bite the bullet and cut layers into it, and cut about 3-4 inches off the bottom. All I ever do with it now is put it up on top of my head and let it hang down. Not very flattering, and I am SOOOOO sick of it.
I wanted to do it 2 weeks ago, but 1) I chickened out and 2) i was too lazy to go get it done...I'll be at my parents this weekend, so this is the perfect weekend to do it.
Maybe it will be just the boost I need.
ACK!

a fresh new look to go with a fresh new attitude...........sounds like a winner to me!
maybe i'll do something with mine too.....called "color in a box" lol! my 12 yo
just don't do what i did.
Hi Keli,
I have though of changing my hair style too. I have been growing it out for the past year, and DH keeps harping on me about getting it cut to just below my ears like it was. It is a little longer than shoulder length. I have thought of getting it permed because my hair is completely straight and fine. I hate it.
I did that in a manic/depressive state - i get mixed very often. I cut mine so short I wore a bandana for months. Only did it once. I need something done with mine. It just hangs. It almost looks like I have a mullet. My roots are also showing. Yuck. Dont have the energy or money. Will prolly just color it. A friend gave me a box of color when she saw my roots - talk about a true friend.

I just need to get mine trimmed...i keep doing it and its just not the same...and my roots are growing out too...way too dark for me to handle !!
I think this is a great thing for all of us to do for ourselves...and if you don't need it...what else can you do for yourself this weekend?????????????
God could not be everywhere, so
Sounds like a great plan. Do it, then post pictures of before and after.
Missy
we all ought to do before and after. might give me a reason to do my hair.

I've been thinking about doing the same--last time I got mine cut was right after I was dx'd and still in the day program (3+ years ago) back then it was SUPER short and now it's down the middle of my back.
well, can't help ya on the pictures, but i think i will definitely color this weekend.
donna - i wish i was young enough to have "dark" roots! my roots show nothing but gray! oh well, such is life.
love ya,
traci
DO IT!!!!!
Treat yourself to a special day for Keli. let your hair down...lol, I mean go. Just make sure you don't go too short all at once. Do it gradually if you want alot off. I am sure it will look beautiful no matter what. I wish I could pull my hair back in a ponytail but
