I cut my hair!

I did remember to take a photo of my chopped-off ponytail when I got my hair cut last weekend:



It ended up being just about 10 inches long (a little longer than I'd anticipated, actually), but I sent it to Pantene's Beautiful Lengths program instead of Locks of Love anyway. I was sure I'd met Pantene's minimum length requirement of 8 inches, and was afraid that someone at Locks of Love might think barely 10 inches wasn't good enough.

It was such a bizarre feeling as the stylist cut the ponytail off and the hair that was still attached to my head fell free. The ponytail itself was a bit creepy - kind of a like dead animal. I sent it in the same day because I just wanted to get rid of it!

It's a strange feeling to loss the locks, isn't it? What a great contribution! How's it feel to be walking around a bit lighter?!

Thanks, Cindy! It feels great - the hardest thing is remembering to squeeze out only half of the amount of shampoo that I needed previously :D
