Snip, Chop, and a Giveaway!

Welp, I've cut my hair. I've been talking about it for years- seriously, I looked back on my blog posts and it's been a good 3-4 years that I've been talking about doing it. I finally decided to just go for it and I tell ya, the moment I did I felt like my hair had grown to be the length of Rapunzel's. Of course it wasn't though, it has been the same length it had always been and wasn't getting any longer. I gave up the dream of having mermaid hair without extensions and went for it. I really like the change, I'm thinking about going shorter on my next appointment. I was worried about what my husband would think because he prefers long hair, but he loves it! He keeps telling me how much he likes it and how good it looks. I mostly wear it straight but since I'm on vacation this week I hope to try a couple of different styles and really play with it.

Here are some of pictures that inspired my cut. I wanted it to be a nice mid-length (a lob if you will) with a slight angle to the front. It's still long enough to be put in a ponytail and is about the same maintenance that I had before I cut it. It's a great style that I think looks good on anyone.

I LOVE your cut! It's much like mine! I cut mine in November but now it's grown out to pretty much like yours. You look amazing! So the LOB is definitely my favorite cut!

even tho I had started to grow my hair back out (I have 2 weddings to go to this summer and for some reason convinced myself I needed long hair for them) my fave hair cut and color is currently yours! I have an apt on Saturday.. so who knows what I'll decide by then lol!

I like long and layered.

Marry Mint said...

For myself, I like a long cut with subtle layers, but only because I have super curly hair and this is the best way to take it! ;)

I've been rocking the Lob for a while, but I'm thinking of cutting off 3 more inches and going for the full bob look... Like Olivia Munn

My husband loves long hair, so I'm hesitant to cut mine. Mine was similar to your new 'do in college, and I loved it. I do miss how easy it was to style before!
