LAFleamarket2 Hair today, gone tomorrow

I’ve decided to go under the knife… well really, it’s more like scissors and chop my hair off.  It actually took seeing the top photo for me to fully come to the conclusion my hair has gotten to the way too long point.   Suppose that’s what happens when you get your hair trimmed once every 1.5 years.  Before my hair gets its mini makeover (still keeping it just past my shoulders so it won’t be uber short), I wanted to post these recent photos as the last memories of my long hair.

Dear long hair,

I will miss you.  We’ve been through a lot.  Changes, that is.  You stuck with me when I dyed you dark brown, light brown, dark brown, reddish (that was supposed to be light brown) and now black (twice in one week since the red tint still showed through after the first time).  Through it all, you’ve endured the bleach and, I thank you for staying strong.  Except for in the shower when you tend to fall out.  Can we work on that?  I do apologize though for not brushing you more often, and the resulting large knot that is formed from lack of said brushing.  It’s partially due to laziness, and well, because you tend to also fall out onto my floor and in my brush more than I’d like.  At least I spare you the heat and let you air dry as I drive to work.   And when more than a quarter of you will be gone, I hope you hurry your ass up and dry a lot faster.

XxXx

    Such gorgeous looks, my dear!!!
    But I’m so sure that you’ll look stunning with a new hairstyle. Sometimes it’s something good to do. (I do it almost from 2 to 2 months)

    Looking forward to see your new style, darling.

    xoxo

    Can’t wait to see your hair cut! I was going back and forth on getting my hair cut this week, but I decided to wait it out a little longer – I might just get highlights for now, lol! Oh, and I’m loving those leopard shorts in the first few pics! :)

    I’m slightly saddened by this development. Since my hair is far too thin to grow out to anything even closely resembling your current hairdo, I have to live vicariously through the long luxurious locks of other ladies! It always makes me sad to see someone with long, beautiful hair cut it off! Just think of those of us that can’t have long hair! But, that said, I’m sure your new look will also be lovely. I can’t wait to see.

    I really like your hair in that braid! And by the way, I have the same black sheer shirt (I got mine from H&M). You wear it so well though!

    Oh, really looking forward to see the change! I did a month ago, like from long long hair to really short, and I am still regreting only because there seemed to be a communication problema between the hairdresser and me, and what I have is nothing similar to what I wanted…

  16. Gah, you truly have the most beautiful hair! That said, I know that it will look just as gorgeous at a shorter length. Good luck, my love – I can’t wait to see the transformation!! :)
