A Cut Above

Yes...I got a cut quite above what I was originally thinking. A haircut, that is. I had picked out 4 styles that I liked and was debating all week as to which one I would get. Everyone I showed picked the shortest cut. I pretty much agreed, but was just very scared about chopping off THAT much hair. Well, without further ado, here are the results:

The NEW Me!

My husband is completely taken with my new 'do. I will be doing pretty much anything around the house and look over to see him staring at me. When I say "What??", he goes on and on about how cute he thinks it is. Yay! Pleasing the hubby is number one on my list. Plus, it seems to be pretty easy to do overall and I like the look of it. Thanks to everyone who voted! :)

To Cut or Not to Cut

That's the question.

The same question I ask myself every summer when it's smoldering hot in TX and time is at an absolutely minimum (with 2 kids clamoring for my attention).

When your hair is long like mine there are many advantages and disadvantages. The advantages go like this:

• it does look nice when it's done
• I get lots of compliments
• I feel a little younger
• I'm not sure my hair looks good short
• my husband likes it

(okay, these advantages are sounding very vain right about now, except the last one)

Here are the disadvantages of long hair:

• 30 minutes of blowdrying
• lots of maintenance
• lots of hair pulling and eating (by Bubba Tub Beckett)
• its HOT in the summer
• it ends up nasty when you-know-who spits up in it
• it ends up in a ponytail most of the time

Okay, as you can see...many more disadvantages than advantages. But the disadvantages sound much more legit than the advantages.

Here's a picture from Summer 2005 when it was the shortest it's ever been. I didn't particularly like the cut, but it'll give you an idea of me with shorter hair.


So...I need your help! What do you think? Should I cut my hair? I'm not talking about a Katie Holmes bob or anything, just something a little above the shoulders, maybe to the chin. I am itching for a change and a little coolness too. June is the month of hair cutting for me. I only cut my hair twice a year so after I decide that's it for another 6 months. Vote in the sidebar and then submit a comment about how I should get it cut. Like specify which celeb's hair would look good on me or the type of cut you think would look good.

Then I will decide which advice to take. If you win, I'm taking you to the salon with me! Just kidding (unless you want to go!) If you win, you get the honor of winning on my blog! And I'll make some bows for your daughter (if you have one).

Thanks in advance! Don't forget to vote and comment! The more the better!
