Chop chop!

If you follow me on twitter, you know that I was recently talking about cutting off all my hair! Well, I did it 2 days ago! Over 12 inches gone. It feels AMAZING. When my hair is long, it gets so tangly, frizzy, and just overall not fun to take care of. I cut Patrick's hair really short a few days ago and got inspired and made a hair appointment! I'm kind of surprised I didn't back out, and really glad that I just went through with it!

Yesterday, my friend Shelby & I just hung out at my apartment for a little bit after I got off work! She finally got to meet Lorelai! I love friends who are also cat ladies, it makes me feel a bit less crazy! Picture credits go to Shelby!

Just wanted to leave you with this one last picture- all of my hair that is now being donated to Locks of Love! Look at the color difference too- see how much my hair fades after first being colored?!

So, what are your July 4th plans?! I'm actually working, then going to another store to work for a few hours, and right when I get off Patrick has to go in :( But I get off work at 4 so at least I'm able to enjoy some grilled burgers and fireworks with my mom!

P.S.- I'm a bad blogger & never got around to doing about a post about my day with one of my best friends (and now neighbor) Emily- so here's the link to her recap!

Your hair looks fantastic! goodness, I've actually dyed my hair three times in one month, and part of it was actually bleached for a year. man...you can imagine how dead it must feel, even with conditioner. I'm considering chopping it off, but I really really really really want to grow my hair out. Sigh.

Wavy or straight your hair is gorgeous!!! I'm sure its so liberating too! Now, do you have phantom hair now? Like when you brush it, do you feel like your brushing the hair that isn't there anymore?...I'm weird, but it happened to me when I chopped my hair short 3 years ago. tehe..

So cute both curly and straight. I've given to locks of love twice, it's addictive (a very slow addition though)

YAY for haircuts-although I do like your hair both ways for sure! Can I just tell you how much I adore your blue polka dot skirt?! It's pretty much perfection! Xo Lori
