The Long and the Short of It...

I know I don't usually ever post pictures of myself here, but it's time to use your imagination. My hair has grown long enough to touch my shoulders but I don't ever wear it down. It's always in a ponytail from morning til night and it drives me batty to feel it on my neck. However, it's finally starting to look healthy (and after the birth of my boy, it basically all fell out) and maybe even on a good day marginally shiny, so I'm stumped. It's time for a cut or a trim. Do I chop it off at the ears and have to style it everyday, perhaps even looking like I didn't just roll out of bed and throw it in a ponytail? Or leave it long, because realistically I'll go stark raving mad not being able to pull it up?

To cut or not to cut...that is the question.

Oooooh, I am not the person to ask about cutting hair, as I chop mine off at the first whim! I guess, don't cut it too short if you like to pull it up - but, a trim might feel/look nice for a change. I know how hard it is to grow it out - such a big decision. Can't wait to hear what you decided to do and you should post a before and after if you cut it! I love the new look - very nice!

Hope you have a good week, Anna - see you - Kellan

Bananas,
Do NOT CUT! I have cut it with the intention of styling it everyday and it was such a hassle. And what to do when you have a bad hair day and can't just throw it up in a ponytail! See you soon!

Damn, that's a tough one. I still don't have it figured out. Hair on my neck is fine, I detest having it on my face. At present, I want it long enough to put up. When it is long enough to put up, then I cut it short. Short hair after long feels so light, I love the dramatic change but hate the maintenance. If I were in your position I might consider some funky color change, but that's me. Whatever you decide will be lovely.

Well...no cut for me, just a trim...especially with winter coming. But heavy highlights are a definite YES because I NEED A CHANGE! :)
