Today, I finally did it. After so many days of soul-searching. Hahaha. Exagg! Last Saturday, Oan said that my hair has grown so long and that I had to cut it. Hahaha. But I love my hair. I know it's not pretty and all but I love it. It's like my security blanket. Something to cover my imperfections. So I just couldn't get rid of it.
I browsed for pix of haircuts I think would suit me but I ended up telling the stylist to keep it layered and long. At the back of my head I was like, "If you want things to stay the same, then you shouldn't have gone to the salon!"
But she said, "Hmm... 4 1/2 inches?" WTF!!! My limit was 3 inches. I bargained for 3 1/2 but she said 4 1/2 would be best. To my surprise, I found myself saying, "Okay..." - submissively. I've known the stylist since highschool. Not that we were friends. It's just that I choose her everytime I go there since she's not 'bading'. No offense ha, but most badings think they know what's best for you and decide to cut your hair their way - truly against your wishes. So I want a girl as a stylist because they tend to be more understanding of your needs and limitations.
Today, this woman pushed me to 4 1/2 inches or even more. I was definitely caught off-guard. At the end of it, I faced the mirror and was shocked. It's not as short as what people might think. But for me, I felt my hair was all gone. But Ryan said this is the best cut he's seen me in. Aww. :) Sometimes, I think he's just saying nice things just to comfort me, but I have a strong feeling he's telling the truth this time. Hahaha. :)
Anyway, I love my hair though it's shorter, I'm sure it'll grow back soon. :)
