The last time I got a haircut was in April 2007, just prior to leaving on my 3.5 month European odyssey. Before I cut it, it was long, messy and annoying. After I cut it, it was cute and fun and perhaps a bit boring, but nice.
Now, over a year later, it’s back to being super-long (I don’t have a photo of exactly how long, because it looks too revolting to wear untied!), and I had intended to just get it cut & neatened up, some chunky layers, perhaps a bit of a fringe, and then I came across the above-linked photo of my shorter, cuter hair, and now I don’t know what to do.
Leave it super-long but get it styled, or cut it shorter? I had no intention of cutting it shorter but now I just don’t know… I love love LOVE my long hair, but it’s completely unmanageable at the moment due to the lack of style, and the fact that my hair straightener, bless it’s cotton socks, began pouring out some sort of toxic smoke a couple of weeks ago, and has had to be laid to rest after four long years of dedicated service.
Sigh. What to do? We all know that I’m going to put off getting my hair cut for another year either way, so it’s kind of moot that I’m even bothering to contemplate this.
I want dreadlocks. Easy.
