Before:
1. Hours to dry after washing.
2. Lots of knots.
3. Fear of getting caught in the escalator (or in the lift).
4. Sitting on it all the time (ouch!).
5. Inadvertent strangulation in bed at night.
After:
1. Dry in minutes.
2. No knots. No need to brush!
3. Nothing trailing behind me.
4. Cold ears.
5. “Did you sell your hair?”
“You look so young!”
“What does M think?”

Wow, what a difference! Very cool!
I’m thinking of cutting it off too, though my hair is not that long, and I won’t get it quite that short, I will probably get it shorter than I’ve ever had it!
I keep trying to remember your hair when I met you, but you must have had it tied back, because I don’t remember noticing it was so long(but then I’m bad at noticing anything on anybody really!)
Wow! Even shorter than mine. 🙂 But I think it’ll be just nice for the upcoming summer weather.
I’ve always liked you with short hair 🙂 You had short hair when I first met you and it played a big part in my initial attraction 🙂
Oh and I didn’t make the two comments after “What does M think?” even though the post makes it sound that way 😛
I believe my first comment was “That looks great!”
To “Before” I’d add: 6. Can’t eat soup without holding it back.
FANTASTIC! It will look great.
First Jessamyn’s dreddies, now your long locks. Is it catching?
When I cut all my hair off, people I knew walked straight past without recognising me. Has it happened to you yet?
Woah that’s a drastic change!
Do you feel oddly naked now? 🙂
Lookin’ good! I always wish i had the guts to go really short like that.
Thanks guys – it feels very different. So far people have all recognised me… let’s see what happens today 🙂
M I’ll change the order of the comments and put the M comment last 🙂
Wow, That’s short!
I always know it’s time to go to the salon when I wake up in the middle of the night and the ends of my hair are stuck in my armpit (bad for your neck and scalp if you move suddenly)
Woah! Very brave of you to do it in one go!
Looks great and very easy to manage.
Another Wow – Still not as short (or absent) as mine
Whoa! That’s a big change! Let’s see the front now 🙂
I have long hair down to my butt. Can’t say it’s a big deal for me. My DH likes long hair….
Hi Anna, my hair was definitely long enough to get stuck in my armpits.. I had to be careful in the loo, too… (does that fit in the Too Much Information category? 😉 )
Thanks Fi – yes very easy to manage, I’m still getting used to the Hair Dry in 5 Minutes scenario…
Hey Rob!! Thanks for stopping by 🙂 I’ve had it even shorter in the past – maybe next haircut…
Penny, that’s what my mum said: “why are those photos only of your back?” I told her she knows what I look like, I don’t need to show her photos…
