Although my hair was much longer than I prefer (shoulder length-ish is optimal) I had some reservations about chopping my hair so short... some of you may remember the fiasco that was my hair freshman year of high school... I have no desire to be continually mistaken for a boy again... BUT my hair was too the point that it was getting hard to manage and I wasn't going to go through another long, hot, humid summer of blow-drying such long hair, so like ripping off a Band-Aid... I chopped my hair... Well, not me personally... I had it chopped by Kyla at Salon West (I highly recommend her.)
Kara helped straighten my hair and take the photographs for our station website... and gave me constant reassurances, so "Vielen dank, meine besten Schwester!"
I still feel a little like a page boy (where are my knickers and knee socks?) and I feel like my short hair makes me look even younger than I already get mistaken for, but nothing can top the feeling of actually keeping my New Year's resolution and representing the red headed minority!
...It's you're turn next, Alyssa...
