the great hair debate
I'm once again getting bored with my hair (it happens about every three months) but this time I want to do something really drastic with it, and am debating chopping it all off, ala Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday and Sabrina. Witness the loveliness:
However, I am posessed of neither the swanlike neck or wondering eyes of Madame Hepburn, so I wasn't entirely convinced I could pull it off. Until my darling sisters, who are wonderful about talking me into doing wild and crazy things, presented this photo:
Similar facial shape? Check. Very short, modern-looking hair? Check. Still looks feminine? Double-check.
So now the question lies with you, dear readers. Should I boldly whack off the long locks that I've had for most of my life, or should I choose some other way of exorcising my boredom? Please feel free to share.
Side note: This photo has nothing to do with anything, other than the fact that it is simply faaaaaabulous. I want to be able to pull off a turban!

chop. chop. chop.
you only live once. you're only young once. if you cut it off short any time later in life (with kiddos) you're going to feel you have succumed to mommy-dom. now, you're just being hip and cool.
chop. chop. chop.
Be brave and go for it!
Good luck!

Mommy-dom is never a good time to try something trendy/new that kid-less gals do for style. Because then you're a "wannabe." So sad.
But then too, I advise asking the hubby first. Unless you're going for the Gift of the Magi, a haircut is not a good spouse-surprise!
