So I just had my hair cut today. First time in two and a half years. It feels really weird. I keep running my hands through it when it falls in my face, and there's just not enough of it.
I cut the tip off the ponytail last night after getting out of the shower just to even it up a touch, since the last inch or two was pretty thin as not all of the hair reached that far down. When I went into the barber shop today, I asked her to take off about ten inches (minimum for donating). I measured it when I got home; she actually took off about 13 inches. And then I lost another inch or two on the floor as she trimmed it up. It's now actually shorter than I wanted it, since it is barely long enough to pull back in a ponytail to tuck up under my bandanas for work. I was hoping to have it still hang right about my shoulders instead of the inch and a half above that it is now. I'm definitely going to grow it out at least a little more again in order to get a better length that doesn't want to fall in my face quite as often.
I'll be sending my hair off to Wigs 4 Kids as soon as I print off the donation form and get it into an envelope. Also, on a side note, this was the first time that I've ever paid to get my hair cut. Felt kinda weird.
And yes there will eventually be pictures, but not today. I've got to get used to it and figure out how I want to let it hang to keep me happy with it before I take in glamour shots. =-)
