finally did it.

"jut do it already" was the thought I had as I got home from teaching today.... so I did.


She was pretty long and mermaid-y and I loved her, but, she's in a braid now on her way to Florida:

and I wish I could meet the sweet little girl who gets to rock her next. Maybe she's a mermaid too? :)

TA-DA!



BAM 11 inches GONE! Feels crazy and really really good too!

YOUR HAIR LOOKS FABULOUS LADY!!! I love it! I'm thinking of getting a new doo once spring is sprung around here. I'm feeling pretty inspired by your new look.

ashley said...

Bluebird & Company said...

oh yes! I LOVE IT! You pull off short really well! not many people can do that.
You look fabulous!

modestmuse said...

Holy crap!!! And of course you look amazing! You are just a hair model type of gal!! A new look for you and a little girl, must feel really good. And speaking of HAIR, Asher?! I hardly recognize you! And teeth?!?! Adorable.

sheila said...

did you do that by yourself?
if so, you're a pro.
if not, tell me where you went.

I love it!
and you look like Anne Hathaway.
(which I think is a good thing)

lets do flan soon. maybe thurs?

Matti said...

oh my....you look adoreable!!!! How come my short hair isn't that cute? So, you want me watch the kids tonight while your man takes you out on the town to show off his hot wife? Cause I bet you he'll wanna! ;-)

Damaris @Kitchen Corners said...

woah, such courage and what a giving spirit

boo face mcjones said...

i LOVE IT. you look absolutely fab-o. and asher looks like he loves his mommy more than ever, which is always a good sign.

isn't it bizarre to hold so much of your own hair and not have it attached to your head? it's a total out of body experience.

echo said...

LOVE IT!!! you look fab!
i am a little jealous.

liko said...

now for crazy thing number 2!

;-)

well, well, well! looking good my friend. You are lucky you can rock it long or short.

Melissa said...

seriously you look awesome!!!

I saw the pictures of your long hair (before I saw the short hair pics) and thought "oh it is so pretty maybe she shouldn't have chopped it". Then I saw the short hair and I thought "whoa she looks so fresh and fun!" and then I was glad that you cut it because you can rock them both.
You look so good!

j,d and little b said...

So cute! I am not brave enough to do that, but you look AWESOME!

Kristi said...

I totally love it. You look great! My favorite is washing my hair after I get it cut - it's the wierdest thing.

Kim's just sayin' said...

hello hot mama. I LOVE this look on you.

it looks perfect. and light and fun. good job,

oh and can I add, you are looking so skinny too. :)

laurel said...

Looks fantastic!

Carrie said...

I'm scared. I cut my bangs cuz i liked yours. Now I like your short hair... Good thing we have an ocean between us because I'm a big fat copycat. Anyway looks great and you are looking slammin, might I add.

Megan and Keli'i said...

I definitely know how scary it can be to cut off your hair! I still haven't done it! But I love it! You look amazing, and for such a great cause.

I need to do it.

lorieloo said...

yeah yeah yeah! LOVE the cute too! so fun.

Audra said...

So cute! And it was so long before! I donated 11 inches to locks of love two summers ago and it felt great! That little toe-head is adorable by the way!

Natalie said...

Very cute hair Steph! That cute baby also is just precious. He is really getting his own look now. Not so much like Ambrose any more. I CAN'T wait to see him this summer. Show him lots of pictures of me so he won't have stranger anxiety- okay.

Rebecca Waldron said...

Looks great! Love the bangs especially. And for a good cause too.

Jessica F. said...

Freaking ADORABLE! I love it!

Brady and Rachel said...

Looks AWESOME Steph! I am just about ready to do the same, sort of getting sick of the hole ponytail day after day after day after day after day.... I'll stop. But seriously, I hate blow drying my hair because it takes FOREVER, but if I don't, I can't leave it down because it has a funky wave to it that is just no good. ha. One day, I might chop it again. Its been a long time since its been this long, so at the same time I feel like I ought to "enjoy" it a little longer. You look HOT! Love it. I bet it feels so awesome to have it feel so light.

Patria said...

hip hip hooray for darling short cuts! you're rocking this cut- enjoy!
(:

stef j. said...

Kristen said...

LOVE it Steph!! Someday Lil will be rockin' a braid from someone just as cool (not really, cuz you're cooler) as you. :)
