Tuesday, October 25th, 2011 i was sitting in women's choir in the afternoon. it was my last class of the day. my sister and i had made hair appointments for that evening. after women's choir, i was to report to her apartment so we could walk together. i had it in my mind that i would only trim my hair, and that was it. i had been growing it our for about 2 years and it was finally at a length i loved! but when we got there erika popped the idea in my head "hey em, why don't you cut it back up to your jawline?" at first, it wasn't even an option, and i pushed the idea to the side of my mind, but as we waited, it grew like a poison inside of me until i convinced myself it was a good idea. so... 45 minutes later, i had lost 9 and 1/2 inches of hair... and i was devastated, i smiled politely at the barber lady, she was so nice to me, and only did what i asked! i could no longer put my hair in a pony tail, i couldn't see it when i flipped my head over, and there were only two styles.... down and curly, or down and straight. it has been 11 days, and i am for sure still trying to get used to it. but i cannot deny the enormous amount of compliments i've been receiving about it. i know that it is going to take some time, but eventually it will grow back... right!?... my hair seems to grow at the average length... not too slow... but not as fast i as i would like it too. so! here is a picture of my extremely short, non-exsistant hair hack.... i miss it... but each day i know i am getting closer and closer, inch by inch, to returning to it to it's normal length.
