I just recently got a haircut. It’s an incredibly drastic change. My hair was long and unkempt, and got pretty shaggy. It didn’t look bad, really, but I felt it was time for a change. I’m excited as hell, too. It’s been so long since I’ve felt genuinely attractive, and with this new 'do, I feel awesome. My confidence is through the roof. It’s been years since I’ve felt this good about myself.

I was thinking more like Brian Setzer (sp?). You look very pretty, though! 🙂

Does your hair do that naturally or does it require product? 😃

Kidding. I approve.

(Admit it, that’s what you were striving for. My approval.)

If youu like the cut, I strongly suggest you get the name of the stylist and always call for appointments with him/her whenever you need a trim.

Nothing’s worse than getting a haircut you love only to find that no other stylist within a five-state radius can approximate it.
