speaking of hair…

Do you think this lady looks like a lesbian? Not that there is anything wrong with that. However, I am trying to not look like a lesbian but my hair is growing out and I need a good in between cut. I really like this cut but I’m afraid if I got it I would look like a lesbian from the 80’s. I think my end goal cut will be this last picture.

Posting from my car!

Alternate post title: Why everyone needs an ex-boyfriend

Emily: So I’m experimenting with this new ‘do and testing the lower limits of hair maintenance.
Dylan: Huh, is that what happened?
Emily: Yes. I towel-dried it for about 5 seconds before I left the house this morning. This is the absolute minimum amount of effort one could put into their hair. I’m not sure if it is working for me.
Dylan: [long pause] I think the key is to make it look intentional. You don’t want it to look like you passed out on your face and someone shaved the back of your head.

thank god I don’t look like Kate Gosselin

Here are some shots of the new haircut!

…because “angled bob” sounds better than “reverse mullet”

…which is basically what I got! Party in the front, business in the back, baby!

I do like it, although I think I am having separation anxiety – I’ve been carrying this slightly damp ponytail around with me all afternoon…

The talented Mr. Fisher...and what looks like a large wet rodent.

No turning back now!

I'm not terrified...I always look this way when someone has clippers near my head.

What, your stylist doesn't use a leaf blower to get all the little hairs off your neck too?

ta da! (btw- this is Dylan's back yard at his new place.)

Hair progression…

Well, in honor of you chopping your hair off in a day or two I thought I would post pictures of my hair growth. This is a lame ass post i know, like who cares about my hair growing! Well, you do, that I know. And this blog is for you, my friend, so i’ll do posts about seemingly boring topics just for you! Ok, lets get on with it. This first picture is me back at the end of June. And the next picture is me tonight!

A nice hair style for when you have been too busy/tired/lazy to wash your hair for the last few days…

This is not a fancy hairstyle by any means, but it does well to keep my hair out of my face and looks like I made at least a minimal amount of effort when the reality is, I haven’t washed my hair since last Wednesday. Now, I am by no means a dirty person, I have probably showered about 7 times since then, but when you have two feet of hair, it gets to be kind of a pain- either I spend 30 minutes blow drying it, or I spend half the day feeling like I have a mid-sized wet rodent draped over my shoulders. So, here it is, the low bun, with pins. And they hold better if your hair is not squeaky clean. So there.
