Snip, Snip, Snip

Last night I decided I needed a haircut, so I thought I would drastically cut off about 4 or 5 inches and leave it at that. But when I woke up this morning I decided I wanted it just below my shoulders. That would be short enough right? See the thing is I've never really had short hair because 1. Being in so many plays my hair has to be versatile for any era and style 2. My dad loves long hair 3. I just never thought it would look good short

And then I actually got to the salon, and DUN! DUN!! DUN!!! They said that if I donated 2 or 3 inches more than the desired length I could donate it to locks of love. Well then I realized it would be completely stupid not to cut 2 more inches. I knew I would feel much better about this impulsive decision later on, when reality set in, if I actually had a legit reason for cutting it. And how awesome would that be to know my hair will actually help someone? Let me tell you. Really awesome.

Weird moments so far-
1. I used to play with this piece of hair in the back, and now its not long enough to twist anymore. Awkward when I try to play with it still.
2. I saw this girls reflection with short hair in a window as I was walking, and then I realized it was me.
3. The shortness accentuates how much I actually bop around. Ya kinda embarrassing....didn't realize I was so bouncy!
4. Can't wait til I wash it tomorrow morning...now I'm sure that will be weird..

Anyways, I like it, its just different! I think that I needed the change. I think it fits my personality and if you don't like it....its a good thing hair grows back :)

P.s. Wanna know what my dad told me? I might as well be bald...Haha. He loves long hair. But I think this will make my hair so much healthier, and I love it!
