Hair Fabulous

Have you ever needed a haircut but made excuse after excuse as to why you shouldn't get one?

This woman is a great example.

This poor lady has convinced herself that her hair is stylish enough.
Look at her hair. Will someone please tell her that it is time to shell over the $55.00 and let someone do something about that drab mess of split ends.

Oh, thank God! Finally the honesty of a child comes in handy.

Now let's look at her.

What a difference! Look at the layers! Look at that smile! She is happy, stylish and dare I say... younger looking. Why, oh why did she wait so long to update her look. I hope she has learned her lesson and will take better care of herself in the future.

And let this be a lesson for all of us. Your hair is an important part of your look. If you want to Fight the Frump, you need to dump that clump of hair that is weighing you down.

Mrs. Jones said...

Oh, I couldn't agree more. I think a great haircut is the most important "accessory." And it gives you great confidence, which is another important factor to looking fabulous.

Your new cut is adorable!

Beautiful haircut and style! Great post!

Amy said...

I did this last month and it was SO worth it. I always wait and wait because "its just so easy to put it in a pony tail and God forbid I have to actually fix my hair." Then I get a real haircut and I look and feel so much better!

You look fabu darling!!

Jenn said...

Your new style looks great. I find I don't notice how bad I need a haircut until I actually go get it and see the after result. Then I wonder why on earth I waited so long!
Good tip for fighting the frump.

Jill said...

rock on. i cut my hair and cut it til it was short, but it was easy to take care of. my hubby likes it long. i'm compromising and letting it grow out to cut it for locks of love. right now it almost looks long. almost...

Gorgeous cut! Mine looked like that six months ago when I cut it--but has grown out and now has the puffball ends (I call them doggy ears) like in your before. Will schedule a cut when the salon opens!

Lizz @ Yes, and So is My Heart said...

Nice haircut! I do the same thing by putting off a haircut forever.

Love the new 'do! It really makes a difference and takes about 10 years off your looks!

Love the 'do!

I need a haircut - I've had basically the same style for 10 years. Problem is, my husband is adament about very few things and "girls have long hair" is one of them.

carrie said...

You look fab and young and hip and happy! Yay for hair cuts that are good!

It's amazing what getting rid of a little hair can do! I did it this week as well! I feel like a new person (AND I got carded when I bought my husband a 6 pack the other day! YAY!!!!)

You look awesome!

morninglight mama said...

Looks great! But doesn't it kill you to fork over $55-- my guy is now charging $60... I got a haircut on 12/30/06 and then the next one on 12/29/07... I'm a total cheapskate!!

Thanks for stopping by my blog.

I love the tote idea. You should have written my post. I'll be putting my stuff in a tote just as soon as I empty it of other stuff.

My hair looks worse. *sigh* Why do I wait?

Great new look! It's refreshing, isn't it? I had to get a cut when my teenage daughter insisted... so glad I did.

Hey it's Amy Benson said...

I my gosh! I ♥love♥ your new hair cut! It is great. I am inspired to cut my hair... I think! Maybe. I'll keep you posted :)

carrie said...

Your hair looks absolutely GORGEOUS! You're an inspiration -- I really need to get mine fixed since I chopped away at it by myself a few weeks ago, not a pretty sight!

Anonymous said...

Ok, that is a superb haircut. And for me a hereosexual male to even notice a haircut - let alone to realise what a good one it is - it must be something special.

Now if only I had enough hair left to even bother cutting I would be happy.

Wendy said...

WOW! I love your new haircut:)Looks so fresh and light.

AEH said...

I LOVE your new hair! I'm going to get my hair cut next week and I can't wait.
