Since You Asked So Nicely

Big Daddy was sweet enough to take some pics of my my new haircut. He is good at taking pics, he knows all the right angles to make my face look like it has one chin. I love that about him. I wish I had a recent before picture. But I don't. Basically think one length about 6 inches longer than this...and you get the idea. You can clickety to biggefy, but do so at your own risk, i am not that cute super close up!

Thanks for all the comments. They came flying in, y'all are passionate about hair. I am laughing (mostly) about it all now, the Girl Scout cookies have helped. It isn't a horrible cut but there are pieces that are longer or shorter than they should be. When I blew it dry today I also snipped and trimmed and evened things out myself. It's hard to tell where the major chunk was taken out of the back once it is "styled" but when I run my fingers through my hair I can FEEL it. I think I might even like it in a month or so. It's only hair, it's only hair, it's only hair...

[yaaaay first comment!]

Jen said...

Looks good, but I can totally sympathize with you!!! It's the worst thing in the world when they cut off too much especially in chunks! It will grow. It will grow. It's only hair. It's only hair. Ya, I'd have to be telling myself that over and over again as well. BTW- You're ADORABLE, don't cut yourself short! :) ha-no pun intended ;)

It is cute! You can totally pull it off! I was so imagining a big bald spot or like a whole section cut to 2 inches long. Styled it looks totally cute!! whew! It will all grow back soon!

Smoochiefrog said...

I think it looks fabulous!

Jenn@mylifewiththecrazies said...

I love it... for all the craziness u went thru I think it looks Fabulous!

The Vance's said...

I love it! I have to admit that I did get a good chuckle out of your story.

lori said...

i think it rocks! woohoo! and I need no double chin photos...hook me up!

Shar said...

I don't think it looks bad at all! But I'd be mad too if they took off more than I wanted!

Supercool Hotmama said...

I really like it! I was expecting something waaaaay shorter. I'm sure it was a shock, especially with the circumstances, but it could have been sooooo much worse. You look darling!

Dana said...

i think you look great!!!

kristin said...

Honestly, I was expecting SHORT, like Wynona Rider short (since when I go short, I go short) Luckily, the length is perfect, eventhough the cut is bad. It'll grow out ok since it's not an inch long ;) That's a horrible length to grow out!

Amy said...

Girl, if your head was shaved bald you would still look terrific! I think it looks great :)

Roxane said...

You look so cute! The cut is definitively not as bad as what I had envisioned. But regardless for all your troubles I gave you an award over on my blog, check it out when you get a chance!

mzzmyrick said...

Hey it looks nice! I expected like boy short hair... or pixie cut. Whew.
Your hubby did a great job on the one chin photo poses! Kudos for him!

mommaof4wife2r said...

i was thinking like short on one side and long on the other...this is actually a nice cut!

scrappysue said...

way, WAY cute

Susie said...

I think it looks fantastic!! I still would have made them pay you!

Divaeva said...

!t looks great! Way better then I thought it would look after reading about the experience!
It's one hell of a story!

It's one hell of a story!

Monkeys ARDently In Sinc said...

It does look way cute! As everyone else, I was expecting something a LOT worse! Having experienced the too-short cut twice since my move here (and I didn't have any other people to jump in and try to save the day), I'm impressed on how good it looks!
It'll grow, it's only hair, it'll grow, it's only hair......good luck!

sassy stephanie said...

Seriously, looking at these pics, if you stop telling, nobody will know! Looks like a layered sassy cut to me!

Tiffany said...

So cute! I wish my hair looked half that good!

Andrea said...

I was expecting something BAD -- but I actually kinda like it!!

Allison said...

I love it! You can definitely style it to make it look great! I can't even tell there is a problem.

Amy B said...

It does look really cute. I know it can really suck when you get a cut that you did NOT want...but atleast you got great hair and a cute face and can pull it off...
You look wonderful..

Kebi Cedawna said...

I really like it. I like the flipped out style too. The comment about your Hubby's photography skills cracked me up. :)
You're hair is majorly shiny too, what shampoo do you use?

sandy said...

I think it's cute! I know what you mean though. I was a student of cosmetology, but I never took my boards. People are very protective of their hair. I used to get only the very tips cut off mine and would be watching every snip. I am sure I have made more than one stylist cringe when they saw me coming. Now my hair is short and I love it! Maybe it will grow on ya:0)

Dawn@Embracing the Ordinary Life said...

OMG that is sooo cute!! YOU look great!!

Jen said...

Love the new do!!!!

banananutmeg said...

I LOVE the front. I've nevah seen you with such short hair...and at least you have the longer layers in the back, so it won't feel so short for so long.

..and I like your lipstick/gloss color.

Michelle said...

Ok, you look totally cute. I kind of like all the layers.

Ms. Mik said...

CUTE i love it :D

Ms. Mik said...

CUTE i love it :D

jane in the waiting line said...

it looks good! but i know how you feel about not wanting short short hair. it will grow! i am taking skin, hair and nail vitamens and i have actually noticed a different!

Alexis AKA MOM said...

Oh the cut is super cute!!! I love it and the back looks wonderful! I could only wish mine looks that good!

what a sweetie for taking the pictures for you!

Love it!

Alison said...

what a horrible ordeal. Your hair looks great though, it is a cute style and length on you.

jewelstreet said...

Yeah, I thought it was going to be monstrous bad. It's so cute! Really it is. You look adorable. I used to have really long hair and when I cut it short the first time it took so long for me to get used to it. You'll get there.

I think it looks great on you. And, I have to agree with Sassy Stephanie. I would've just thought you had a makeover. You look fantabulous!

ImakehairROCK4u2 said...

I have been a Hair Designer for almost 19 years and I have NEVER worked in drama like that!!! lol Did the salon have "Super" "Clips" "Bo" or "Fantastic" in the name? lol
If you're ever in Springfield, Ohio I'll fix it up for free;)

hfl said...

I think it is really cute. And I agree with Meg love the lip gloss. What is it? I need some.

Cecily R said...

I la la LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, you look HAWT!

Josh and Amy said...

HOLY Comments... I love your hair! I know it is way scary when it goes from long to short but it really cute! Sounds like your day yesterday was more then scary! I love you and miss you. I got your messages...and know that I love you. Have a good trip and hopefully one day we can talk on the phone or something...lol.

Leeann said...

I've been bald....if I can chant "It's only hair. It's only hair." and survive being bald. You can survive that beautiful healthy hair! :)

Jamie said...

I love it....It's very cute.

Mrs. Jelly Belly said...

Oh, I think it's SUPER CUTE! Of course, when you go in for your next haircut, your new stylist will be all, "WHO cut your hair last?". They always say that - even if you have a fantastic cut. I like to say, "you did" just to throw them off. :)

April said...

I can't see one thing wrong with your haircut...I think it looks GREAT!

Judi said...

I love the hair!! This experience could have been worse. Happy Thursday!!

Lis said...

I really like it - you have gorgeous hair!!!

USCEmily said...

I think it ended up looking great! I love the layering. I had a vision of it being super short in the back, so I was pleasantly surprised at this!

angi_b72 said...

i think it looks great!! The way i was picturing it from your description i was feeling so bad for you becasue i know bad haircuts can be terrible...but it actually looks great on you!!!

Lisa said...

Are you kidding? You're gorgeous up close!!! Love those eyes...:) I think the haircut is pretty cute, too, so you must have really fixed it.

Have blessed day!
Lisa

Mary Ellen said...

You're gorgeous! And the haircut looks fine - although I know what you mean by 'you can feel it'. I think they haven't invented the crazed hairstylist who could make you less beautiful. She didn't know who she was messing with!

Kristin said...

I was expecting to see something awful. You look great.

Kasey said...

Sorry to hear bad haircuts and snipping and trimming as you go, runs in your family! You must've done a good job fixing it up, because it looks great.

Laurie said...

Even though you went through HE%^ to get this haircut... It looks really cute!!

Craftymoose Crafts said...

I think it looks really nice! Good save, lol!

Michelle said...

Did you know I had a very similar bad hair cut experience just two weeks ago (minus the baby daddy drama)? I even have before pictures; I just haven't had the gall to post them. Yet.

Perfect timing, eh?

imom said...

Love that cut! It looks great from all sides.

Steph said...

That's not so bad! I was thinking way worse.
I just got mine cut too by the way, and it's really short! A-line. longest at my chin. Very different, but I like it.
Yours is very cute! :)
And yes, it will grow.

A Psych Mommy said...

Love your new do! I go in for mine tomorrow--can't wait!

R and R Stacy said...

Looks great!!
I found your blog through the Sweet Jelly Bean, she's a sweetheart!!
I look forward to reading more of your post.
Happy Friday!!

Pam said...

I'm sorry about the crazy hair situation and what you had to go through- but I think it looks cute. What is not cute is what you went through!

Kevin and Brandi said...

I think it looks really cute!

MaryRC said...

it looks much better than it sounded in that horrifying story. girl... dang...

John Deere Mom said...

I was expecting much worse...but I can't imagine how freaked out you had to have been during all the baby mama drama!! What a mess! And I LOVE how you handled the bill! Crack me up!

Queenie Jeannie said...

Ohmygosh! That is SUCH a cute style on your! You have fabulous hair too. You got it all hun, lol!
