finally!

After two years of growing and months of bitching, I finally was able to chop off my hair today!


Please keep in mind, this is the after. I intended to take a before and a during, but there was a snafu at the eye doctors that made me almost late for my hair appointment and, well, life just never goes as planned.

BUT! My hair is now 10 inches shorter, my head is about 6 pounds lighter and there is a whole lot of red hair on its way to Locks of Love. Yes, I know some of you probably have issues with that organization and that's okay. My hair grows crazy fast and I wanted to use that power for good for once, so that's where I sent it. Also, I probably should have gone shorter, but Nature Boy was freaking out that I cut it this short which makes me think that I need to have the "no hair, no opinion" discussion with him again (as in, you have no hair, therefore you are not entitled to have an opinion about mine).

UPDATED: I successfully used a curling iron! This is monumental progress.

You are beautiful! Why would anyone have an issue with locks of love? I always donate my hair to them because my hair grows freakishly fast too and I feel it's my only superpower that I can use to thwart the evils of the world.
