hair cut idea

i need a change big time. i am thinking about cutting my long hair into a pixie cut. why not? i could do it. why am i holding onto this long hair? because it took so long to grow it out? it's sort of a good reason but also a ridiculous one because i could use it forever and waste my pixie cut years away. i think now is the time. well, next week. i have to do some research about where to get it done. i am just so sick of blow drying and straightening my super long hair. and it's wavy so i have to put all of this work into it, otherwise it is a big, poufy, half-wavy crazy mess of hair. also, it's hard when you have bangs to come up with a new style, unless it's shorter. the more i think about it the more i like it.

it's thursday already? when you are living the life of leisure like me all the days blend into each other. today i am going to go swimming or do a pilates video, and go shopping. i really shouldn't be shopping but i need to "get out" if you know what i mean. there are only so many things a girl can do around the house before going crazy. i am downloading season one of heroes (i've seen some of season two on tv) but it's taking forever. i also have to finish my latest book club book. it's "a complicated kindness" by miriam toews.

it's a really good read but hard to read all at once because the plot is very loose. it's more like a bunch of ideas centering around a central thought.

I think a pixie would work well on you but I have to say I think you're very courageous to go for it! I have uncontrolable wavy/curly hair that is even worse when it's short so the thought of a shorter cut always makes me 'uncomfortable'... But you know what - it grows back...

It will be cool to take so little time to style it!! :)

In case it's helpful: Someone who has very nice 'shorter' hair at work recommended Leeza at Coupe Bizarre (Queen/Niagara) - I need a haircut too, maybe I'll test her out and let you know about it! :)

I love and am scared of the idea of a pixie cut!! It is a gutsy move and one I think you could pull off!

I loved that book. It isn't a read in one sitting book but it is still a great one!

Pixie or a cute chin-length angled bob would look fantastic on you, especially with those gorgeous bangs of yours. Can't wait to see it!

I definately think a pixie cut would look fantastic on you. You can always do it in phases too - like cut it half way now then go all the pixie way in 2 weeks or so. Then again, that's a lot of time and money spent at the salon. Just go for it!

I think a pixie cut would look AMAZING on you! Do it! I have to blow my hair out everytime I wear it down, and it gets really annoying.

I think you could totally rock the short hair! Jenn's right, you have the face to pull it off! Make sur eyou take lots of pics, can't wait to see the new do. And if you don't like it? What's the worst that can happen? It grows back!
