I took off about a foot of hair that should have been cut months earlier. It also means when it's L'Oreal time it only takes one package instead of two. Of course it seems every time I get a haircut, I go shorter...and shorter...and...

I just got my hair cut on Monday, mostly just a trim and to clean things up. I have shoulder length hair, and it doesn't look good any shorter. But it felt great to have someone else wash my hair, and get all the split ends cut off. I'd been putting it off for weeks, so it needed doing anyway. Whether you're doing it so it's easier to care for or because you want to be pampered before surgery, it's sooo worth it!

I just had a haircut a couple of weeks ago. I have taught my hubby how to pull mine back and put it in a ponytail for me. So, I think I will be keeping all of mine. DH is really good at combing my hair and is getting pretty darn good at tying it back for me. I worked too hard to get it where it is since I have always kept it right at my shoulders. It is now down between my shoulder blades. Plus he might divorce me if I cut it. LOL.

Are we sisters or what ?????
It's funny how so many of us think of the same things!
I am getting mine cut but no it won't be short. I don't look right in short hair and I find it to be much harder to care for. I had it once and would wake up with my hair smooshed in the opposite direction of where it was supposed to be and the only way to fix it was to wash it . Too dry to wash it every single day !
I will keep my pony tail

Haircut, yes! And more!
I treated myself to a facial, had my brows waxed and have a hair appointment tomorrow. I'm also going to have a pedicure if I can fit it in....
This is one time when I feel we can do everything possible to comfort ourselves. This is a big deal....
My DH only gave me a little look when I warned him about the charges on the credit card...
:-D

Hi,
I got a hair cut (1/2 inch), got my toes done, got a new bathrobe, slippers, mumu and last but not least new undies......Oh it will be so nice to have undies with no stains. When I get home I will get new sheets and throw out all the ones with stains to include a mattress pad. Surgery is 4/1 I am so excited. I hope I can sleep tonight.
