I had a dream the other night that my hair started to grow really fast. I was super excited until I realized it was only growing in the back, mullet style.
I have sported many hair styles in the last 6 years.
Lets revisit a few, shall we?
Early 2007, We lived in Mass.
The longest it’s ever been. EVER.
Then I chopped it all off.
Once in Okinawa I let it grow, this is about mid 2008
At the end of 2008 I cut it off, This is a turning point in my hair adventure. I found a stylist I adored, and I trusted, So I pretty much let her do what she wanted to my hair.
Early 2009, shorter with some layers.
Then I started to really have fun with it.
I think this is one of my favorite cuts.
Mid 2009
A little shorter
2009
So cute! I was also about 20 pounds lighter here.
Then I went too short…
end summer of 2009
Way too short.
End of summer 2009
But I had a cute fauxhawk for about 30 min
Then I started a new adventure in sept 2009
An adventure in bleaching.
I also started letting it grow.
And bleached it some more.
(real butterfly)
early 2010
Then I made the leap into unnatural colors!
2010
Pink!
Super Pink
Just a little pink
fall 2010
There has never been a pinker pink.
Our last night in Okinawa Nov. 2010
And my last pink.
Then I went dark again
So I could get a job and be responsible.
Found a hairdresser I liked and started going lighter!
Super blonde!
And growing it out.
then short and brown again.
And here we are a few weeks ago, growing it out, with bangs.
Clearly, my hair cycle is grow it a bit and chop it all off again. I can’t seem to get it past my chin.
I am thinking about cutting it again.
I love short hair, but I long for long hair. I sort of think short hair will be easier ‘mom’ hair, then I think “will it? really?” short hair involves blow drying every day, and tons of product. I can never just get up and go. With longer hair I can pony tail it and just go.
I do miss the pony tail.
But the whole reason I cut my hair the first time, is because all I ever did was a pony, I never had fun with my hair. And short hair is SO MUCH FUN!
I don’t know what to do?!?!?!
So tell me, Cut it or grow it?
What do you think?
Vote and leave me some words of wisdom.

Cool! I wish I was brave enough to do that with my hair!
It was cool to see the progression of your hair! I kinda sorta did the same thing. I having the same problem too! :). Good luck!
You can still do a lot with long hair and the pony/throwing it up option is still nice with kids!
Found you over at the Military Monday Blog Hop. LOVE the pink hair you had! I also saw that you lived in Mass. I am from there, where abouts did you live? We lived in Pepperell (45 mins from Boston) right on the New Hampshire border. I am now a follower! I'd love it if you would visit me over at http://www.battlingthehomefront.com and become a follower.
