And I wasn't nervous anymore. And she put me in the chair and played with my hair a little and I told her the minimum and maximum length, and then I basically let her have free reign, and I love it. It is the haircut I hoped for, but had no clue how to describe. I am so happy! I know you can't tell without a before and after picture, but she took of 6-7 inches! Now that I've found someone I can trust with my hair I'll live happily ever after...until we move.

A New Look
Once upon a time, I was a girl who was very brave with her hair. I had the most amazing girl that I went to who

Kim, You look adorable. I love it. It is a good length for you. I'm so happy you like it. I know the feeling about hair. I have had some unforgiveable cits myself. I went to a gal for 15 years and all of a sudden she is done so I had to bite the bullet also. You are right a guy would never understand this. Kinda like when girls need chocolate!! It's a great day when you get a great look. Miss ys, love you both. Mom & Dad in MI
Kim,
I know what you were feeling, I too had the terrible mullet experience once. I like the new haircut.
And Lucas, thanks for the update on the Wisdoms. You must start school late if they aren't moving until September. And thanks in advance for checking up on them and for having them over. I know they will appreciate having some connection right away. You will really like Kyle, he is wonderful.
