Total Hairectomy

I decided to have a mid life crisis on Tuesday and had a radical hairectomy.

It had grown to well below my shoulders. I was sick and tired of how long it took to wash and dry, I couldn't do anything with it except put it into a ponytail, and its weight would often give me a headache.

So I got it chopped. And threw in a fringe (which I haven't had since high school) and some streaks. Maybe a few more than some.

Last time I really had my hair 'done', with a half head of foils and a cut and blowdry, was about 7 years ago, and cost me $120. Guess how much this one cost! (It included a wash, a lovely scalp massage and blowdry as well as the cut and colours). Only $70! God, I love living in the country!

The dogs went a bit beserk when I got home, they kept trying to jump up and sniff my hair. Mim just stared at me and then told everyone she encountered (strangers included) that my hair was shorter; Caitlin got shitty that I got a fringe and she wanted one but I won't let her get one.

It's been great not having to pull my hair back and put it up. And it's so easy to wash and dry now.
