Letting go of long hair

I think a lot of girls can relate to this when I say that I have a very "the grass is always greener" attitude when it comes to my hair. When its long I fantasise about chopping it off daily while trying to brush through the tangled mess that has occurred throughout the night before and when its short, I impatiently wait for months on end just to grow my hair passed that 'awkward shoulder length' that is so trendy and looks so great on other people but you just can't seem to pull it off yourself no matter how hard you try.

Now, a few years back I did the incredibly cliche girl thing of chopping all my hair off after a breakup, almost instantly regretting it and spending my time since trying to grow it back. What is it that makes us girls think that cutting our hair will magically make the boy come running back? Funnily enough it didn't work which in hindsight was a good thing however at the time I was left broken hearted and with not very much hair. I would just like to add that I may have still been drunk from the night before during my appointment which is never a good idea and not recommended...

I am writing this post whilst trying to decide what to do with my hair before my next appointment. I currently seem to be switching between cutting it all off and letting it grow every two minutes.  At the moment I have no idea what the outcome is going to be, for all I know I could be walking out of the salon with a pixie cut depending on my mood..

Let me know if I am the only one crazy enough to be obsessing over this or whether its pretty normal to have a roller coaster relationship with your hair????

Fast forward a week...



In the end I braved it and went for the chop and I can tell you it feels so liberating! I forgot how much a nice colour refresh and change of hair cut can just totally give you a boost and make you feel great!

Time to test out my hair styling skills now that I can't just shove it on a bun on the top of my head every single day... Best set my alarm twenty minutes early for tomorrow morning!
