it's only hair right?

i shit you not, i have had far too many dreams of late that i walk out of the salon with this godforsaken hairdo(n't)...
tomorrow is the big day!! to refresh your memories i am going for something between this....
and this.....

i am a little scared, i'm not gonna lie. it's like the longer my hair gets the bigger the security blanket it becomes. and i have no idea why. i just keep telling myself that i look cute with shorter hair. and the truth of the matter is my current hair looks terrible. it's processed so it's not in the best shape and could use about 40 inches cut off of it. and most days i can barely get a comb through it so i put it in a sloppy ponytail. plus i think i will look much more french and chic.
wish me luck. i will post before and after pics tomorrow.

I know what you mean, I pull my hair in a ponytail every day and when I decide to get it cut I start to freak a little. I want total no maintenance since I can't even it blow dry, I don't understand how Kate could want or find time for that peacock hairdo she has. Good luck I am sure it will look great, MB

I LOVE that last photo!

If you can, save the hair in a ponytail and send it to locks of love.

Oh my goodness, the kate hair is the WORST THING EVER! It absolutely appalled me when she claimed that everyone wants to copy that haircut...

I LOVE gwyneth's short hair right now--I took that same pic to my hairdresser the last time i went, but chickened out at the last minute and got a trim instead.

can't wait to hear how yours goes! it will look smashing I'm sure!

Don't be afraid and remember to tell the hairdresser what YOU want not get stuck with what THEY want. If you choose the second or the third cut you will look stunning...xv

I'm sure it's going to look amazing. I love picture number 3!

Thanks for the comment today! Jenny we were went to be friends. I painted my bathroom black as well!

I can notice a little bit of brush strokes, but not too bad and I love it!

Look out Gwyneth...there's about to be a new hottie in town!

Can't wait to see the beautiful results...and a little tip, have a glass of bubbly before they bring out the sheers!

Of course it helps when your hairstylist follows each of your steps gel and comb in hand.

The dos are fabulous. The don't is beyond anything imaginable.

I cannot WAIT to see how it turns out... I was just discussing the "Kate" hairdo with my stylist, and we decided that it's blasphemous.

Good luck!
