The New Me

So I’ve called 2008, Operation Hair Grow Out. I’ve literally fought with my hair for the past 2 months. I’ve been growing it out since January-ish though. I had a moment last week where I wanted to shave my head.

I then did when I typically do when I’m contemplating a new hair do. I put out the pictures. I went through all my photo albums, Shutterfly, Snapfish, and even polled my friends. Really, Julie is much better with shorter hair.

I have that inner voice though. The voice that says long hair is pretty, and feminine. Ya, not soo much. Long hair is frizzy and a pain in the ass for Julie. When my hair is past my shoulders, all I do is wear it in some sort of pony tail.

So I made the appointment. I took in two pictures with me. My hairdresser knew this was coming. I had it cut off. I still need some color added. I was too lazy to sit for some highlights though.

So, here’s the before-Julie. This was taken about two months ago and almost 10 lbs. ago too:

and here’s the after-Julie. WARNING! It’s short, very short.
