  • Wow, that is a lot to cut!

    I grew my hair for the wedding as well, and now I really love it. I may just get a brazillian blowout to make it straighter :)

    Totally love longer hair, but I get split ends like whoa!  I always give my hair a lot of TLC, but still, my ends split bad.

    I'm interested in the Brazilian Blowout, but they are majorly expensive.  I can't fathom spending up to $450 for something that I have to also buy a specific product to keep up.  Maybe it's just the hype surrounding it that is making it so expensive!

    Do the creep.
  • I had 5 1/2 inches taken off 2 dys after the wedding.  That brings it up almost to my ears in the front and I had alot taken off the back.  A little shorter the Victoria Beckham's hair. 

    My next big step is Major color...l hope to go dark brown with deep red and a little caramel.  That'll be next month...just in time for Halloween.

  • I grew my hair out for the wedding as well.  When I got my hair done for the wedding she told me about a keratin treatment ($300 every 3 months).

    So after the wedding, I gave DH a choice:  I cut my hair, or he can pay the $300 every 3 months for the Keratin tratment!!!!  He told me to cut my hair!!! hahaha!  Figured he would do that, but I would love to try something like that in the future...

  • I got mine chopped too, but only 6 inches :)  DH pounced on me as soon as I got home and told me how sexy I looked. I'm still getting used to it being sooooo short (compared to what I'm used to), but it feels really good and so much healthier :) 
  • Post wedding haircut = best feeling ever!!!

    YES! My hair was feeling so unheathly. Now its so soft! But it does feel weird being so short. I styled it last nigh and took like all of 10 mins. It will be so nice getting ready in the morning!

  • It looks great! I chopped mine off a few days after the wedding and it is the best feeling.

  • Looks great!  I haven't made a drastic cut; just got a trim and re-layered my hair about a week after the wedding.  I really love that my hair is long again, and I have a goal of growing it out to below chest length.  I have naturally curly hair, and I really want that long, curly, crazy Shakira look that just goes down past my boobs.  I love that hair!  It's my goal!  I'm still about 4 inches away from where I'd like it to be, but my hair grows pretty quickly.
  • I was going to do the PWC, but instead I'm going to grow it out and donate it at the Relay for Life next April.  Instead, I'm going to do the PWT (post-wedding tattoo) ;)

  • I chopped 15 inches a few weeks ago... Donated to Locks of Love!  It is a reall drastic change but DH and I are loving it!

  • I too chopped!  I only had about 4 inches taken off... I was going to go real short but decided to do it gradually.

  • YOu girls totally inspired me.  I NEVER had long hair in my life until my wedding.  DH LOVES my hair long (what is up with these guys?)  He does not want me to chop it.  However, it is very unhealthy.  I have been putting it off.  After reading your post, I made an apt. for Wednesday.  Not sure how short I will go.  I can easily take off 6-8 inches.  I will see what my girl says.

     

    THanks!

  • I plan to chop my hair too - not sure how much there is to cut, prob. 5-6", I'd like a modern style bob like Kristen Cavalliri:
