Here is another "before" picture." This was taken late last year, so my hair was a few inches longer just before the big chop. Long hair lovers, please don't cry....it might have looked good but it felt like straw from a Halloween haywagon ride.

Hi Lyris, been a long time since I talked to you. Your hair is awesome. Your before picture looked great but if your hair was as damaged as you say then your decision wasn't so bad. Besides, you love it so you don't have to defend your haircut to me or anyone else. No one should ever have to defend a haircut by choice.

Especially when you got what you asked for and like it. I would only be upset if you had said that you got it cut and it turned out bad. Your cut is very pretty and even though it's a medium length it still looks long. It still touches your shoulders.

Something else, looking at your before picture and the after it doesn't look as drastic of a length change as it really was. The shorter layers make it seem like more hair was cut but you really did keep lots of length.

I'll leave off by saying that looks like a fun hairstyle. It looks like something you can do lots of stuff with.

I'm happy that you're happy. Very pretty.

Wow Lyris that looks fantastic! My other half is trying to grow hers to the sort of length you left from (kinda like what Amanda Bynes had for the Nickelodeon Kids Awards last month), but she's got it at a similar length to you right now.

The question is, is that a zig-zag part I spot? VERY COOL if it is.

Thank you all! Yes, I plan to keep it shorter for awhile - and sometime I might even go shorter, as I think my hair takes really well to shorter layers. My biggest concern was that it would swell up into an enormous mushroom cloud around my head in high humidity. Incredibly, it doesn't! (although Memorial Day will be the ultimate test as I'll be at the Jersey shore.) What floors me most is that my hair actually looks just as good if I don't style it in the morning. I run some leave-in conditioner/straightening gel through it, plus a little mousse, and I LEAVE. It dries into the same shape that I would get from heat styling. I could never do that when my hair was longer, as it would frizz out of control and the last six inches would go every which way.

Lyris, like everyone else I think your hair looks utterly fantastic. If you're happy with it, the length doesn't matter. I'm glad you're back too!
