Alright ladies and gentlemen.
No huge update here, but I'm trying to make a decision about something so I thought that it would be helpful to make a pros and cons list.
If you're visiting here via facebook then you've already heard me chatter about this in my effort to make a decision (though I feel like I've really already made one).
Here is the dilemma:
Should I cut my hair?
HAHA! did you think it was going to be a big deal? Well it IS!
Since my freshman year of college I've kept my hair particularly short. Recently, and for the first time in 5 odd years, I've allowed my hair to grow out and it is now the longest it's been in quite a while. Upon expressing my desire to cut it I received responses with varying degrees of both enthusiasm and horror from friends.
First: The photos
This is my hair now (as of yesterday June 7th, 2010)
Here's another. Excuse my expression, I was having a hard time being serious
And now here are two photos of my short hair (last summer before i started to let it grow out). This is the haircut that I'm thinking of getting this weekend.
After showing these two photos on FB I got a lot of positive feedback about both the short and long hair, and no negative feedback for either.
So now it's just about what I want to do, and honestly, I'm leaning towards the short hair again. I miss my short hair.
But here's a pros and cons list anyway.
LONG HAIR PROS
* I can put it up in a ponytail on bad hair days.
* I can braid it and play with more 'updo' styles than with short hair.
* I have a wider range of hair style options with longer hair.
* It makes me look more soft and feminine (this was said to me, so I thought I'd add it).
* I like the way my hair looks when I wake up in the morning when it's long. But no one else sees that so it's kind of moot.
SHORT HAIR PROS
* It's stylish
* It's fun and cute
* It's summer and this hair style is cool and keeps the hair off my neck and my face.
* I have more volume with short hair than I do with long hair.
* Easily washed and styled. Not a lot of time required.
* Cutting it short will get rid of all of the dead ends that make my hair look dull and damaged.
* You'd be able to see my earrings.
* My neck would look longer.
* No more tangles!
LONG HAIR CONS
* High maintenance
* Tangles
* Use more shampoo and conditioner
* Dead ends make hair look less healthy.
* Volume at the top and volume at the bottom looks funny.
* I don't like pony tails. I don't think they look good on me.
* I feel like there's no style in it, it looks like so many other hair styles I see.
SHORT HAIR CONS
* Not very feminine?
* Can't do a lot of different things with it. It's a one or two style cut.
* Uh... that's it.
Actually, the choice has pretty much already been made, but more feedback is totally welcome.
I'll be going to get my hair done this weekend. So I guess everyone will find out what I officially decided to do after Saturday. Haha.
Tootles until next time,
