Hey! I did something very impulsive & crazy & maybe kinda stupid last night. I got all my hair cut off...its REALLY short- I mean, cropped, over-the-ears, boy-short. YIKES! I HAVE NO HAIR LEFT!!!! I was shopping at the local mall with my mom, and she went into the salon there for a trim & highlights. While I was waiting, I was looking thru one of the style books there & I found this super-short cut that I thought was really cute. I`ve been kinda curious about super-short hair recently, so on a whim I decided to get it done...one of those wierd impulses you get that you cant really control. My mom freaked!!! I freaked, too, actually. On the bright side, the stylist was really good and got it ot look almost exactly like the picture. I`m not sure what I think of it yet...I feel wierd and exposed and naked; even when it was short before it still hung in my eyes & covered my ears. Now my ears stick out and there`s no more hair to hide my eyes behind. Gulp! So, I`m feeling nervous & kinda sick now cuz I`m heading off to school in a little while, and nobody but my mom has seen it yet...I might wind up regretting this. I already got teary over it last night- I`m sure I`ll probably bawl at some point today. Anyway, just wanted to let that out...wish me luck, everybody. PLEASE! I might wind up putting this on the Bloopers board soon....... Love, Ingrid (with current shaking knees and swirling tummy) ------------- If I had wings then I could take you in I'd stay on the ground and show you some things The grass is strewn with blades of gold all sights and sounds I have been told all hopes, desires, seem to sing |

I wish you luck, Ingrid. I would never have the courage you have to cut my hair that short(wouldn`t look good on me anyway!). -------------  http://amandapandahair.spaces.live.com/ - My Long Hair Odyssey

Wow...congrats on the big change Ingrid! If for no other reason, be happy that your hair will take virtually zero time to style, will cost you less in styling products and won`t be messed up even after riding through a wind tunnel. I wish I had the guts to go super short--I could sleep an extra 20 minutes instead of blowing my hair stick straight. Keep us updated on how you adjust to your new cut...and remember to smile: when your hair is short the emphasis is on your face :-) ------------- Look for beauty, and you will find no intelligence.
