Lately I have been having the itch to cut my hair. And when I say lately, I mean for months! I’ve had very short hair in the past, but I have never literally shaved my head… Well, all of that changed last night!
I went from all of this (which by the way, was cut prior to me leaving for Blogfest in May)
To this
I parted my hair and put a ponytail at the top and in the back. I cut the back first because I figured if this was a case of insanity, I could easily fix this problem by heading to the salon and asking for a nice bob or something. But after that back ponytail was cut, I felt so good!!! It really wasn’t hard for me to get to this
This is totally not for everyone, I know, but I must say that I feel so FREE! Like I’m not held down. So free from a ponytail and flat irons. But most importantly so free from chemicals. I have great hair that really does not need many chemicals, but I used them anyway.
I tried on this dress last night just to see if I still look like a girl… The answer is no. I LOOK LIKE A WOMAN!!!!

Your going to love being chemical free -- I go back and forth between my natural curls and flat iron. I havn't used chemicals in my hair in over 11 years and honestly don't know why I ever did??
You look cute it really highlights your smile and cheekbones :)
You look great girl!! I cut my hair really short a few years ago to get rid of the relaxer and that was the best decision for myself and my hair.
