I’m Bald…
Haha… Suckers! I got ya!
I do feel kinda naked though. This is the shortest my hair has been since middle school.
After searching for pictures online for months, and seeking advice from others, I got the hair chopped off last Thursday. When I got to The Salon of Lexington (that is what it is called), I sat down in the chair and said to my stylist of a decade or more, “My hair needs help! You know me. You know my hair. You know my face. You know what you’re doing. What are we going to do?”
She asked me a few questions. I told her I wanted something short, but not too short. I am terrified of looking like a little boy. I told her what was out of the question. My only absolute, over-my-dead-body, was NO BANGS. I can’t do bangs. Won’t do bangs. Other than that, I she had creative freedom.
This is where we ended. It is easy to work with. It takes five minutes to blow dry and style (style is a strong word). I even use mousse - sometimes.
(Notice the eyebrows got some much needed attention as well.)
Maybe next time I will be more daring, and go shorter or more edgy. Maybe my fear of looking like a boy will fade. For now, this is the change I needed. I now have a reason to look in the mirror other than to pop a zit.

I love it!!!!
You got me! Haha Well, I think you look beautiful with your new DO! I had my hair cut way too short and never have cut my hair short since. =) Love It!
Too cute! Why not long side sweeping bangs? Think that would look so good on you! JMHO though.
I think that is the perfect cut for your face. Having your eyebrows done really opened your eyes up, too! You look terrific.
I think it looks great!
Renee it looks great! I love the feel of a fresh haircut. I also love your writing style… your blog is so fun to read because of your witty comments. Keep em coming!
I say this with some reserve, but I think you look older. (In a good way) Gone is the “you look so cute, I could just pinch your cheeks” look; the Renee I will always love and remember. But we now have the truly beautiful young lady you are. You always were the cutest, sweetest thing on earth; still are. Moanna can carry the banner for cutest girl child under 20 and you for the over 20 group.
It’s a great length! It looks really nice on you.
I LOVE it!!! And I totally think you could pull of bangs
I am thinking of getting sideswept bangs but fear with our heat I will end up a pimpled mess…we shall see!
I am trying not to cut it all off – I usually do that and then grow it out long and then cut and grow and cute and grow and well..i am trying to get myself off that rollercoaster
Love your new ‘do!
Love “the bob” very urban chic
I agree with Grandma, your new do makes you look more grownup & mature. I really like it, it looks great on you!
I LOVE IT! You are such a babe (short or long hair). You and Aubrey even have the same color hair…TWINKIES! Miss you guys, and hope everything is going better than when we were there last! Give Mo a big hug since we didn’t get to see her.
