Anyone out there who knows me in person knows that I rarely wear my hair down. Unless it's short. I've been growing my hair out for the wedding and I think it's the longest that Ellie has ever seen it. When we met, I had just gotten the perfect haircut, something I haven't been able to replicate because I couldn't afford the cost of a good haircut while in grad school, and have yet been able to find someone who can do it right.

What awesome hair! Please ignore
the blemishes on my face |
Then I began growing my hair out for the wedding.Why don't I ever wear my hair down when it's long? Because it's unruly, semi-frizzy and looks really unhealthy when it's this long.

And this isn't even the longest it's ever been! My hair used to be to my waist--just ask Man of Honor Jeremy about it!! I never wore my hair down then either. But I'm trying to because I have this lovely halo of tiny, broken hairs about 1-2 inches long all over the top of my head that are far more noticeable when my hair is up; I've convinced myself that elastics are the culprit. I've never been one for taking good care of my hair...the only thing that really mattered for shampoo & conditioner was the smell right? I can get that for $1/bottle from Walmart! Supposedly this is not the case and I have been trying to find something to tame this mess, to no avail.
I'm want to try to find a way of getting my hair cut off before we leave for
Turks & Caicos. I'm fairly convinced that it won't happen, but I still want it; guaranteed to be off my neck, higher likelihood that it'll look good, short hair is a lot more fun!
Seriously, this is my same issue. Exactly. Luckily I have an amazing hair dresser that can read my mind, when I can't even read it. LOL. Unfortunately even $50 haircuts are not exactly in budget as often as I'd like...so I resort to the same thing, when it's not short, it's up, blah. But at the same time, I'm not really sure I want to cut it when we're planning on getting married Fall of 2013. It seems a ways a way, but my hair only grows when I don't want it to. Wouldn't it be fantastic if the "Flo-bee" (excuse the spelling), had really lived up to all the hype?
ReplyDelete$50 isn't that bad! I know we're close, may I have your hairdresser?
DeleteI've gotten a few cuts since I started officially growing it out about a year ago, but basically just trims here & there...then I stopped because it was just easier to cut my own bangs & let everything else just do it's thing (in a ponytail of course!).
I wish you nothing but luck!
The shop is On The Edge Hair Design, right off 95 (Dedham/Westwood area). Her name is Debbie, and I LOVE her. She's doing my hair for a wedding this weekend.
