a bad hair day

so this past thursday, i woke up and was having a really bad hair day...like REALLY bad...i got out of the shower and thought "my hair has never looked so frumpy!!"

i decided i'd had enough and called kim (my wonderful friend and hair stylist!) and she originally booked my appointment at 6... but worked me in at 3:30... yes, it was better to do it 2 1/2 hours earlier! haha

well, apparently my frustration was for good reason, i've always (well, in most recent years) had a haircut for thin hair, you know layers, etc... but when i sat in the chair kim said "you're hair is thicker!!" and i've had about 15 people since thursday comment on how my hair is so THICK!? including all the girls from the weekend i've NEVER had thick hair... but i had decided to get kim to chop it off and get rid of all of my layers... because they really just hadn't been doing what i wanted them to do... something was different...

so, she cut approx. 5 inches... got rid of the layers (and what was left from my body wave) and i've never been happier!!! i'm still learning how to style it... and i'm still deciding what my new "normal do" is...i love the way it is in the above picture, but i'm gonna have to call kim to figure out how she did it!! do i go straight or curl?? ....eh, still figuring all that out... but i just know i love it! :)

whodathunk it? me with thick hair! so that's what happens when a very impatient person wakes up with a really bad hair day! ...well, in all honesty, i'd been seriously thinking of going short... but just hadn't decided what style or if i REALLY wanted to do it... yippee!!
