The hair has gotten the chop

:) Soooooooooo.. I had my appointment last night.

And I got it all cut off.

And boy oh boy I am glad that I did.

I can actually run my fingers through my hair. It is wonderful!

I am a bit worried after I wash it.. Because hair looks great when the hairdresser does it, but when I am forced to do it on my own… ehhh not so much. I am still shocked at how straight it looks. All she did was stick some smoothing gel in it, and pull it out while blowdrying it, then put some other straightening/smoothing cream (and she said to straighten it out alittle more with a straighter/curling iron if you have too).. Which is good, because I don’t like straightening my hair very much (with a straightener kind of thing). If i can get my hair to come out the way it is in those pics, I am going to have a blast styling it.

And omg my head feels SO much lighter!!

I think I have realized that I am just not made for long hair. I think it can look gorgeous, just as short hair can, but I cannot stand the feeling of having hair on my neck. I just can’t. It unnerves me too much. Plus, this will be soo much nicer while I am in South Carolina on vacation in less than 2 weeks.

(Plus, this cut looks totally cute with my pink glasses!)

My mom said it makes me look older and more sophisticated. Which is good, because I am sick of people thinking my 14 year old sister is the one going off to college. That is SO ANNOYING!

Anyway, probably nothing new from me till Sunday. I have to work tonight (I will be my 3 out of 4 training days.. I’m so scared! I only have two more days left with someone else there! AHH! I’m so nervous I will mess up or not know the answer or not know what to do! And I HATE feeling that way. I mean, I feel like I know quite a bit more than when I started (when I knew nothing), but at the same time I feel like there is so much that I don’t know. Then again, I think about it so much everything will probably be drilled into my brain soon. Seriously, when I go to sleep I start thinking about work, what I know, what I did, what I don’t know, what I wish I knew.. At 2 in the morning I was still thinking about it, so I turned on my laptop and typed up a list! A LIST! My craziness manifests itself. Atleast it did help, since I stopped thinking about it.

And, apparently we are going to Hersheypark tomorrow (Thanks for letting me know, family!). I do want to go on the new coaster they have, but at the same time, the aggravation that going to Hersheypark instills makes it seem not worth it. I cannot STAND my mother on these kinds of trips! It sucks the fun out of everything and just makes everyone miserable. Not to mention, I am working tonight, Hersheypark tomorrow, then working again on Saturday! Ugh, I guess work is just making me have a nervy spazz, when I really needn’t bother.

I just hate being in new situations and not knowing how to react to them, or what to do, or what I should be doing. I guess I just have to learn to be confident in my abilities. I mean, my dad told me that even if I make a mistake I “will not be the downfall of the entire Target coorporation”. Which is true. At worst I’ll run a little late- the lady training me said I am very personable and do a good job, just need to be a little faster, but that will come with time. Thinking about it now, I have learned a great deal in only 2 days of working there. I havn’t messed up majorly yet. I just feel like there are so many little things that could go wrong or that i won’t know. But I guess I can always press the nifty assistance needed button on the register. I hate being on the spot and not knowing what to do though… I panic.

Well, atleast I will have awesome hair.

  1. I love the cut! You are workin’ that short hair!

  2. What Charlotte said. That hair is severely awesome.

  3. love it !!!!

  4. HOT

  5. Absolutely the CUTEST! Also, what does it look like if you dont straighten? still look good? Either way summer calls for drastic measures and yours looks great.

  6. Your eyes look lovely in those pictures.
    I always try to memorize what my hair dresser does and I buy all the products but it always ends up looking like a bird’s nest.

  7. :) Thanks so much everyone! Glad ya’ll think I’m teh hawt~ lol.

    I think I’m going to be all awesome and turn it into a fo-hawk (or whatever the frigg they are called). Because I can, and it’s cool.

    Danna, I havn’t actually washed my hair since yesterday (lol) so I dunno… :) I guess I’ll just have to find out once I take my morning shower tomorrow!.. Actually, I really am curious now…

    And Brownie, you can be my bird’s nest buddy! It’s not fair how they can make hair look awesome, then it all turns to crud once I give it a shot…

    :) Thank again everyone!

  8. I’m a devotee of long hair, but that looks totally cute on your :D Right choice was made, it seems. Long hair is gorgeous but it ain’t for everyone, and you’re totally rocking it :D

  9. OH my GOD, girl … that is the cutest. haircut. EVAR.

    You definitely made the right move. Good for you!

    Plus, think about what a tiny, small amount of shampoo/product you’ll have to use. Your bottles of product will last, like, 10 times longer!

  10. NEW HAIR!!! I had my reservations, you know, about the big change, but… I really like it!

    I asked my mom if she wanted to see your new cut, and she loves it too!

    So now you know, my mother approves. As do I. :]

  11. your hair looks so cute it does make you look older but in the good way

    good luck on the job thing :)

  12. Ah~ I love it. :hearts: Looks terrific (though I think it looked good when it was long and curly too). All the same, you’re fab-u-lous! :D

  13. Cute hair! Looks great on you.

  14. You have absolutely AWESOME hair!

  15. I love, love, love the cut!

    You look extremely sophisticated and mature. Very chic.

    Although I belong to the short-hair-ftw camp myself, especially as a hairdresser (just tends to look more professional to me).

    You look gorgeous. You are gorgeous.
