something miraculous just happened.

in the 2 years i have been married, the man i call my spouse has been slightly opinionated adamant about the no-you-may-never-cut-your-hair-short rule.

ahem. i have had many a great short hair cut and i loved them all.
his reasoning: once you go short, you don’t go back. its just not true!

we women need change, and especially when i have 15lbs to lose still and that is not happening fast enough for me, the nasty locks infested with daily spit-up have got to go.

they will come back some day i promise. but its summer, and i promise i will get dressed and feel cuter too. it will probably help inspire me to speed up the weight loss too.

so please oh please oh please. {i showed him this picture here.}

{from when i visited my brother in Vegas when i was in college, and i just decided on a whim to hack it all off and it was my favorite hair cut. i did it right before i graduated and it felt good- like a new beginning or something.}

that’s what i need. a new start. now that life is on autopilot, i feel like i can do that.

and guess what, he said yes!
{well, really it was more like a mubbled, “oh ok…” but i am going with it!}

so i am doing a little research because it will be a few weeks before i see my stylist
{my SIL in AZ},

and i found this thing @ ivillage to try on celeb’s haircuts. awesome.
here are some of the faves.

i kind of love this reddish choppy thing.

 mid-length… i kind of love the auburn, cc wouldn’t let me go that far i think…
i might be able to get away with the bangs though…

these look like me.  {or cuts i have had…}
 
and carrie underwood. just cause me + blonde = seriously wrong.
