who’s got two thumbs and was getting tired of spending a half hour combing her hair in the morning?

THIS GIRL.

my last haircut was over a year ago. this appointment was long overdue!

did you ever see the movie tangled? it gave me nightmares.* how did she manage with all of that hair all over the house when i can barely manage my crazy mane?

thanks to beth at sanctuary salonspa in downtown minneapolis for giving some extra time and attention to my major chop. it feels so good! a weight has been lifted.

beth also helped me achieve this fancy ‘do a couple years ago:

i will admit, though, that after reviewing the photos from this morning (before the chop), i thought for just a second: oh, what did i do? — but? hair grows back! like magic.

* not really, but kinda.
