Well, it's been a year since I last got my hair cut. It's been growing out from a chin length bob, and thanks to my fabulous stylist (who, incidentally, does cut it dry), it grew out very well. But it was getting way to long for me to handle. I just don't feel like I look my best with long hair. It takes too much product and too much work and takes too long to dry. I've had short hair my entire life, so there's only so long I can put up with it.
So this morning, off I went to my salon (this was my 3rd visit to this place and I've loved each one) with my boyfriend in tow (because it's in the city, and he can parallel park...and I cannot). My stylist, Stephanie, dry cut my hair (which was styled with Spiral Solutions products), then washed me (Deva stuff), then styled (with Angell and clippies), then dryed (big hard hat dryer contraption). She took off a good 6 inches when it was stretched straight. But I know that hair cut posts are really all about the pictures, so without further delay:
BEFOREAFTER
*a note about the after: stay tuned to see how it looks when I do it. The curls are waves because I was out all day and they weren't tight when she styled them anyway because Angell by itself doesn't give me enough hold to last all day and be picture worthy. I will update this post tomorrow with pics of how it looks when I style it myself
UPDATE: It's been one day since I got my hair cut! I still love it (good sign). Here are some pictures from today's styling:
