Oh, Hair.
If you can remember back to almost a year (seriously), I posted about my hair and what a problem it can be. To refresh your memory, it's generally long, thick, and out of control. My last cut was in May. Yes, May. As in May 2011. Let's just say that "rat's nest" could easily apply to me even on a somewhat good hair day. Then I saw this on People.com and pinned it:
Now, there are so many things wrong with this idea, namely 1: I am afraid to death of short hair. Not even just super-short, short in general. 2: I do not look like Michelle Williams and I would probably turn out looking like a boy. You have to have the right face for the right cut, that's for sure.
But there is something about this idea of hair short enough that I don't have to worry about doing much to it. If I want to flat-iron my hair right now (ha. ha.) it takes about 30 minutes. If it were that much shorter, it might take 10. 20 minutes saved- bam!- and I could do it all the time, not just every third day or whatever. My line to my hair stylist (who is never the same because why would I try and maintain a stylist??) has always been, "I have to be able to pull it up." And then I started thinking, why? Why do I need to pull it up? If it's short enough to not need to be pulled up, then isn't that good?
So I started searching Pinterest and pinning, which I don't often do:
Now, granted, I don't have those faces either (or Keri's curls) but I like the length on them and it's not so extreme, right? Anyone pondering a new 'do?
