    That chop felt so GOOD. I wish mine were long enough to donate (then again, it did have color in it besides...) I think that's great :)

    Pretty short..I am looking at styles now. Not as short as yours though. I don't have the guts, or the face, for that.

    my hair is nowhere near that short anymore...that's an old picture of me and FI, but it's my favorite.  My hair is longer and I'm unfortunately not quite as skinny anymore :o( I can't wait to do the post wedding chop and go short again...it's down past my shoulders now...the longest it's been since like high school.

    Isn't it cute?! I'm so excited. I always do this. I grow my hair long just so I can chop it off and do something different. Then I get excited about growing it long again and being able to do different things to it lol It's a vicious never ending cycle.

    I cannot, CANNOT wait to do the post wedding chop and mine is not even that long, I had originally said I was going to let it grow from the time we got engaged (last feb) but once the summer came last year I lost my mind and cut it.  Now I'm dying...I actually made an appt the day after the wedding so I would have short hair for the honeymoon lol.

    That's cute!  I just did my "post wedding" chop 2 weeks ago... nothing like waiting 8 months!  I've done a trim since then but had to work up the nerve... I always had long hair... it isnt super short, but if I try a ponytail pieces fall out since it is layered... it is driving me nuts at work right now!  I work with severly disabled kids in the summer.  I have to feed them and toilet them and it feels like my hair is always in the way.  I should have waited longer.

    Bobby pins girl! They work wonders! I love using them. I get the ones that match my hair and I pride myself on being able to pin back my hair without seeing the pins. Oh well, guess I won't be doing that for a while!
