I did it! Short hair!

Yesterday I finally did it! I've been wanting a change with my hair for so long but I hadn't had the guts to do it! It's been long for so many years and I figured right now (while I don't have any big events or pictures coming up) it would be a good time to be drastic! So I went and had 15 inches chopped off and donated it for a wig. I'm not so sure about it yet... but I know it will be awesome to have a different style each day... and so much easier to take care of!
Here it is before I cut it....

The last of it to be cut...
All done... so much lighter feeling... it's gonna take some getting used to!
Yesterday...
Today! This is gonna be fun!

Oh my goodness...I can't believe you chopped it off! It looks so cute though! Way to be brave!

Your hair stayed so healthy too! It is going to make a beautiful wig for someone! Does Devin miss it? Some guys have such a thing for long hair.

For me when I cut my hair a lot shorter, it is the weirdest feeling when I brush it - such an abrupt feeling when it reaches the ends. Shampooing feels weird too.

You are brave and it turned out great. High five!

You look good no matter what, but I love the short sassy look! It is so much easier to do short hair too, I'm sure you're already finding that. Your little man is so cute. Holy blue eyes!

Wow April, what a change. It took me awhile to get used to you with long hair cause I was always short in High School. Super cute cut, what does hubby think?
