yep....i got all of my hair cut off last night. My little sister had donated her hair to locks of love (http://www.locksoflove.org) last year and i decided that it was something i wanted to do. So yesterday I went to the salon and said goodbye to about 14 inches of hair :)
I feel so much lighter :)

Looks good, Clytie, and the donated hair will go to a good cause. We regularly get wigs for our Hem/Onc patients donated by Locks Of Love.
Thanks!

Wowie, now there's a nice head of healthy hair! So pretty.
But I love your hair short. I like the way it frames your face!
^_^ awesome awesome
I donated 11 inches september of '03.
don't worry, it'll grow back XD mine isn't at the length it was at yet, but it will be eventually...lol. at least it's long again XD (i think i need about 3.5 more inches for it to be "back").

You look great -- good for you!
Very generous of you Clytie. Did you feel about 5 pounds lighter? Short hair is so much easier to wash (and dry). There are some fun products out there to style with too. Good for you! And if you don't like it short, it'll grow back, right?

The new haircut is very sleek & sophisticated - I think I like it even more than your old 'do! What an awesome gift :D Hair that long takes commitment ;)

I've actually been thinking about doing that. Especially since it is about to be summer here in Arizona and it gets so hot. People tell me all the time that I should do it just cause I have a TON of hair. I have such thick hair. It's for a good cause, so I think I really might do it....

and yes my hair will be long again in less than a year.

Good for you, Clytie. Your hair looks great both lengths. About three months ago I had over 10 inches cut off. Unfortunately, I didn't realize at the time that I was gonna be saying "keep cutting..." so she cut it off in sections, therefore, useless for locks of love. But my hair seems to grow out pretty fast so I think I'll make sure that next time I wanna go shorter again, I'll just get it cut off in one fell swoop.
