Hair

I chopped all my hair off last week. I got 8 to 10 inches cut off (8 for shorter layers, 10 for the longest). I donated it to Pantene Beautiful Lengths, which works with the American Cancer Society to make wigs for women undergoing cancer treatment who can't afford them.
My hair had just gotten completely unmanageable - it took HOURS and HOURS to dry, and the shedding was just insane. It was like, it was ok one day, and then within a week, I just could not take it anymore and had to get rid of it.
So, I'm back to a chin-length bob, which I would say has probably been my signature look throughout my life. I only wish straight irons had been as prevalent when I was in high school and college, because my hair just does not lay in a flattering way unless it is longer. Knowing how to straighten my hair would have saved a lot of heartache, and I could have avoided the Snape look I had going on a lot of the time.
I think my next move will be to go blonde. I've always wanted to try it, and it will be a lot easier with short hair.
