It's only hair

I hear people say this all the time.

I don't feel that way.

I love my long hair and I go to great lengths (HA) to keep it healthy. Even though I do realize that at some point it will only make sense to cut it because I hear that old ladies with long hair are only trying to hang on to their youth. Personally, I see nothing wrong with that.

Yesterday I had a foil weave, and since we moved I had to find a new salon. What did I do? Go to the one voted most popular in this city! Why not?

I told her to go ahead and cut a few inches off. It was waist length and we have a lot of wind out here so I thought the ends were getting a little skimpy.

She showed me what she was going to cut off and it seemed reasonable.

Well it's now just below my bra strap, and that is more than the three inches she showed me. I think my search for a hair stylist will continue, or else next time I'll take in my own ruler.

I do love the color, though. She used two different tones, one blond and one kind of copper-y. When I saw The Boy I asked if he liked it. He said it was okay that I cut it, but he didn't like the color.

"I liked it better with the black on top," he said.
