Outfit preview… sorry I forgot my camera cord when I left for the coffeeshop today. Oops.
Oh but you can see more clearly my new haircut. I’m still trying to grow it out but the thing that bothers me the most about short hair is the fact that the back along the hairline looks tacky within a couple weeks of a cut. And I do not have the time nor talent to be constantly straightening that little section. It’s hard to reach!
So I went to a cheap-o salon, my poor hair dresser Andy will die if he finds out, and asked the woman to just cut the back off and layer it a little so it doesn’t look like a blunt cut. I wouldn’t let her touch the top or sides at all. She was confused but since I was the one paying she let it slide and didn’t say too much of anything about my weird request. LOL.
