You did good! It looks great - light, full of life and curl. And it's not a terribly huge change, since you left so much length around the face. You still look like the you in the earlier photo, only how nice to have some bounce in your locks rather than having 'em weighed down by their own length.
My requests:
// length between my bra strap and collar bone, no shorter
// encourage my natural waves - layers, maybe
// want to be able to put it all into a ponytail
// don't make me hate you
// I will probably cry
And cry I did. But I like my waves now an awful lot. Not sure if I like the length though. I somehow expected - what? That I would look the same?
You look beautiful! The first cut in a long time is scary, and it always takes me ages to stop being surprised when I look in the mirror (and washing it is the worst, with the running-out-of-hair-too-soon).
That looks lovely. I am in a 'straight' phase at the moment, largely because it's cold and I need to use a hairdryer so it's easier to dry it straight.
I used 300% more conditioner this morning than required, and discovered that all of the things I used to do to my hair make me look 5 or 15. This is not good.
Veeeeeeryyyy niiiice! I have to work really hard to get bouncy curls at approx. the same length you have now (which seems to be as far as my hair will ever grow), I'm dead jelous too. It looks really good. Nice job.
Looking five or fifteen? Is it pinning it back or to the side or something you're doing? What the heck, be YOUNG fifteen is a great age. ;)
Thanks! Pulling it into a ponytail makes me look like a 15-yo cheerleader because of the body. And pulling it back in two sections like so looks definitely 5-yo.
