Cut off 11 inches of hair!!
I finally got my hair cut. I was trying really hard to hold out so that I had enough to donate to the locks of love but I really didnt think I had enough and my mom basically pushed me out the door when she got here last Thursday. I had been promising her I would cut the "rats nest" for over a month. So I went to Innovations and low and behold I did have enough!! So they chopped off! The best part was that my mom treated me to the hair cut and gave me $40, well I got to the front desk and they said it was taken care of....."huh?" "Well since you were kind enough to donate to the Locks of Love then we try to reward you!" YEAH!!! So I tipped the hairdresser $20 and gave the other $20 back to my mom and we did dinner that night. It was such a nice surprise! (especially after the very shiitty week I had)
Anywho- thanks for letting me tell the story and here is the pic!
Re: Cut off 11 inches of hair!!
That's awesome beth!!! Good for you
Did you already give your hair to Locks of Love? If not, I'd like to recommend the Pantene Beautiful Lengths program (beautifullengths.com). They are a better organization for several reasons that I can explain later if you wish!
and DOUBLE BONUS, it looks fabulous!
I don't think I'd ever have the patience to grow my hair out that long and do that, good for you! I'm shaving my head like my DHs soon......
Allyson- I havent yet. I was going between them but the only reason I went with LOL was bc they took 10 inches and I knew Panteene was looking for 8. I have no idea of the differences. Can you email me?
Thanks

and yay for donating it! i didnt have enough =( some day i will though. thats my goal eventually.
YAY For you! That is great that you did that!
