I haven't had a haircut in 104 days

Unless you count snipping off split ends- which in my mind doesn't count. Once it's pony tail length, I think it'll be easier. Right now, it's not... I had given up on the hairdryer and straightener, until a few days ago. It's too unruly to go au natural. Hope I can hold out a bit more. But, dude, it's hard.

shaggy love

Growing my hair out has been painful. There are days that are difficult to even leave the house- like this morning. I've basically given up the hairdryer and straigtener, so thing have become, well, a little....funky. But I'm staying strong. A little longer. A little longer. A little longer. This photo from STREETFSN made me feel a little bit better about embracing the shagginess. I mean, she's cute. Really cute.

Thar she sulks

So, it's been about seven weeks since my last haircut- and it's showing. I'm sporting a bulky mushroom head. But fortunately it's past the tips of my ears! Headbands have helped a bit- but they hurt because my head is large. I've been wearing hats a lot more too, and I love this Brixton Pack Bowler. I should have ordered it in black too... I know this doesn't really show hair growth, and I know that I planned on taking a photo every week- but no one wants to look at this mess. So there.

thar she grows...week one

Something's happened being a brunette. I want hair. Like to pile on top of my head. And um, I can't do that- at all... So while driving to work on Monday morning, (wish I could remember what I happened to be listening to) I made the decision to grow it out. Get through the awkward three months looking like I did in seventh grade. Because between this length and a rockin' bowl cut or a mini-bob are MONTHS of waiting... And I'm impatient. So I'm going to document the growth every week. Hopefully, little by little, I'll see changes. I had an appointment for a cut next week, but I canceled it. I know you're "supposed" to trim it every six weeks. But I sort of want to punish myself a little bit and wait. I'm not sure how long. October? November? In the meantime, I'm waiting for Mr. UPS to show up with another hat...
