Here`s the story.
On friday evening the girls came round to my house. We had a couple of beers to give us some courage and then washed our hair. It felt strange doing it for probably the last time as i will never have my hair to my waist again. We then dried our hair properly and brushed it and played around with it for a while.
Then Louise said that the time had come and we took out our scissors. I was almost shaking with fear and took a last look in the mirror with a tear in my eye. We put our hair in a ponytail. At this point my hairband was about mid back and i was happy to get that much cut but the others started to push it higher and higher until it was at my shoulders, the same as them.
I grabbed Louise`s pony, she pulled tight on Jackie`s and I could feel Jackie`s hands on mine. We laughed nervously and on a count of three we started to cut. It was the strangest feeling i have ever had as I had to cconcentrate on cutting while at the same time feeling all my locks coming off. I have to say that I got a real adrenalin rush and felt so excited, if you know what I mean.
We stood with each others hair in our hands silently and then started making so much noise that my mum came in to see what was going on. She could hardly believe her eyes. i still hadn`t seen my hair but feeling it was so weird and when I saw it I started to cry. I liked it but we all had tears in our eyes.
The next day was great. We met at the salon and told the hairdressers what we had done. They were amazed and a little disappointed as they would have liked to have done it. I talked with my girl for a long time before decided how short to go. We were all shampooed and sat beside each other. As she prepared to give me my new style I could see Louise getting hers really cropped. Her hairdresser was having so much fun and Louise seemed to be enjoying it as she was shorn to a style similar to #5030 with the back so short.
Jackie opted for a style which is blunt cut to a chin length bob with razored layers to give it a messy effect and to frame her face.
As my girl sectioned my hair which is still just below my shoulders i had a tear in my eye again. I wanted a cut like #3826 and she pushed my head forward. I cried as I felt the scissors make the first cut on the back of my neck at about ear length and I sat there in a daze as she cut my hair beautifully and it all landed in my lap.
So we have done it. I love my style but i still feel strange when I go to touch my hair. .I love the way it swings and feels when i move I am thinking that if I still feel good in a few weeks I may go for a crop like louise who looks stunning. She really is as pretty as the girl who models style #5030 in the gallery.
Our boyfriends freaked but when we went out my boyfriend said that he liked but wished that I had let him do it! He got a bit excited later on about it! We had a great night.
Many thanks to all who have posted. I am going to register on this site and will keep in touch with you all although i will use a different name as i can no longer be Wannacut as I have done it.
