Dear Long Haired Girls,
I just did it......
I did, what I hear myself telling everyone not to do. I took my moody age related blues to the beauty salon. Never never never do that I say! And yet, there I was telling my lovely hair dresser Jo...that I was tired of looking tired and needed something fresh. So we made a decision and now I have bangs (fringe).
Are YOU sick of the same old hair? Considering doing a BIG cut? Before you do...ask yourself......WHY?
Do you feel bored, fat, old? Tired, stressed, broke...need a change?
Is cutting your hair really going to be the thing to help you look 10 years younger or 10 lbs (5kg) lighter?
Probably not. Actually, its pretty safe to say that cutting your hair will make you look older... However...sometimes we all just WANT. SOMETHING. So instead of losing the whole 10+ years of hair to the cutting floor...how about trying something safer? How about bangs? Here in Australia...they're called fringe. Wherever you live...they're the cute little wisps of hair, cut a million different possible ways and coloured or not coloured...that can hang, sway over or stick straight up (!) off your forehead. Its a commitment to a hair style that changes every 4 weeks and won't cause your mother (or your boyfriend) to faint.
I did it today. Still not sure I like it. It was hard looking at all those really LONG pieces of hair on the floor under my chair. I suddenly felt like a bad mother...wanted to pick them up and save them. Silly silly. Whims are like that. Having long hair is a long term commitment and full of Love/ Hate moments.
Try going for the little cut before you commit to losing the lot. If nothing else, it will give you more time to re-think that big decision!
xoxo
