    I made an appointment. Tomorrow at 5, I go back to short hair! For some odd reason, I'm kind of nervous! I love having short hair and it's definitely time for a change, but I'm oddly sad about cutting it all off this time. Maybe it's because this is the longest my hair has ever been as an adult? Or maybe it's because I'm going into this totally blind as I've never used this hairdresser or this salon before?

    Hold me.

    Actually, no!

    I think I'll take in a collection of photos of cuts that I like, just so that she can see my style, but I'm going to leave it up to her to just give me something fairly hip, short, easy and that will look good after wearing a helmet!

    I would LOVE to go super short again, but my DH said it freaked him out a bit. He admitted that it looked cute, but I think that it felt too short to him in the dark. I'm willing to compromise a little bit...

    This is 'super short', so I'll probably do something a little longer than this:

    I can't find any good short cut photos! I have such thick wavy/cury hair...and all the celebrity cuts are of people with super straight hair. I did pick out a couple of Halle Berry styles...but of course, I'm no where near as good looking as she is, so it's hard to imagine her hair on me!

    Eeek...one hour to go. I keep repeating my new mantra "it's just hair, it's just hair, it's just hair".

    (oh and yes, I have a "before" shot on my camera)

    Check out this site: www.short-hairstyles.com

    My fave is in Gallery 8 cut #2 & 11!!

    11 would totally work w/thick wavy hair!

    Ok, I got it cut on Friday! The girl who did the cutting was so excited that I was donating my hair. She really, really made me feel good about it. I was her first 'donation' since the salon opened about a month ago. And she was in the middle of growing out her hair for the same reason!

    I haven't taken a picture of my new hair, because I haven't quite gotten the hang of styling it yet. I've been playing around with an assortment of products to try and get it to come out right. I think it's too long. I'm also not used to having curly hair when there is no humidity. It's messing with my normal 'procedures'. (Funny, since the people here are complaining that it's too hot and humid this weekend!! It doesn't even compare to NC or FL, my last two places of residence!)

    I'll get DH to take a pic tonight to post before and after and you guys can tell me what you think.
