a hair story?

it's thursday.
I woke up with a stuffy nose.
and my body is sore from a hardcore workout last night.
and it's just...one of those days. 
you feel me?

but today is good because of two little things:
#1. wearing new clothes always makes the day just a little bit better.

#2. my hair is finallllyyy starting to feel a little bit long since my drastic cut.
oh, wait, don't remember the cut of 18 months ago?

exhibit A:
long hair, don't care, look at those curls!
(yes, i'm envious of my own hair.)
because, two weeks after this photoshoot, I did this:

exhibit B:
talk about drastic!
and the first week, when I cried everyday, it just made me cry harder when people said, "the short hair looks cuter than the long hair!"
because. what. are. you. saying.
that I was reallllyyy ug-ug hideous before?
because i felt pretty ug-ug-hideous right after the cut.
why did I do something so drastic!?
and now, I look back and think--yeah, maybe the short hair does look better! haha

okay, but nowww, I brush my hair, and I am happy that I can brush for at least two seconds before there is no more hair to brush.
and that's exciting.
high five me people!
(yep, I definitely cut taylor out of that picture...but I left his creepy red eye.)
yay for growing hair and for things that are really trivial and don't matter at all!

so...what do you think? short? medium? long?
what suits me?

  1. Medium! I think I'd cry everyday if I cut my hair too, but after I had Rae the thought crossed my mind 3498x a day.

  6. I adore your long curls, I'm always going to have long to medium - I would love the short maintenance but I just can't do it!

    1. it's such a scary thing to do! but surprisingly, the short was harder to maintain than the long! probably because with long hair I just threw it up in a pony! haha!

  7. All of them look good on you!! And I totally feel your pain...I'm no stranger to hair regret, since I impulse cut my own bangs every time they reach a certain length!

  8. Okay for real -- I envy girls like you. You can pull of both so well!! I am going through the same thing...growing mine out after a drastic cut...except mine was NEVER pretty long. I'm one of those girls who NEVER takes the time to curl/braid/etc and it always is gross and straight. I think you're EXTRA adorable in that short haired pic...but the long is so classy! EEK!

    1. i am totally the same! I never take the time to do anything with my long hair, which is why I finally decided to cut it! but then all I wanted was long hair so I could do something! haha! why is hair always such an issue!?

  9. The short hair is adorable and makes you look more "grown up," but I'm digging those long curls!! I'm just a long hair kind of gal.

  10. you are one of the few people i've seen who can pull off all 3 looks! love it! (i've had hair to my bellybutton and had a bob, so i've been all over the board too! but something about long hair is just SO beautiful & feminine to me!) so glad you found my blog so i could find you, you're a doll! can't wait to read more! xoxo
