Hair Cut Results.

I finally broke down and faced my hairdresser.

Haven't seen her in oh, six months or so.

Nothing like walking in and seeing the person who should take the most pride and joy in your hair make a face like she's giving birth to a giraffe.

It's true, my roots were so dark (and long) that even a fresh wash and blow dry did not take away from my head looking like a grease pit.

That's what ball caps are for.

Thankfully Misty is a hair genius and she coaxed my locks back to life.

I also had her take my hair short.

Shorter than it's been in a very long time.

Ready?

Thank you Misty. I owe you. Big.

But I'm still going to tell your naked beetle story one day. You can't stop me.

You should've gone for the mohawk. You just scream butch-rebel.

Renee: Don't I though? Listen, I can guarantee my mother handled me being a lesbian much better than she'd handle me getting a mohawk....

Renee "Lesberita" Gannon said...

I second that. For serious though, cute 'do!

Renee: uh huh. My mother would have a coronary. Hey...I'm diggin' your name suggestion for a kid. I'm sure that would ALSO go over well with mom... :)

YAY! love it! (and the picture)

Another aside, my cousin's name is Benjamin Dane Deaton, and he was about 4 or so when my little cousin was born. After we found out it was a girl, my mother had him completely convinced they were going to name her Benjamina Dana Deaton.

We still call him that to this day.

PS They named her Rachel Evelyn so he was safe.

Ms. Scarlett: you are ruining me! I have all these crazy names running through my head now. And you have NO idea what you've started with April...I just may send her to live with you and Amy....

Angelique: thank you! I owe it all to Misty. Once I wash my hair, it'll never look like this again. Which is why I'll try to never ever wash it...

feisty: thanks! You know, I wondered if anyone would notice my kiddie crayons in the background. I should known you would :) I love it.

LOVE the new cut! You are now required to keep us short-hair-envious folks up to date on how you like it in a week.

Brian said...

I'm wondering how many traffic laws you broke while taking this picture. None of the important ones I'm sure...

It's a good look!

Lynnette said...

dolphyngyrl: ay, ay captain. I've been thinking, my house is on Misty's way to work. She really should just swing by every morning. After all, I'm a walking billboard. Does she REALLY want me hiding her work under hats and in mini-pony-tails? I think not. It's really about helping her. I'm a giver.

Brian: Just so you don't loose any sleep over my driving habits, I'll have you know I was stopped. At a light. At least I think I was.

Lynnette: HA! Listen, I'll take fans any way I can get 'em :) Not a whole lot that's beneath me....
