I have been in a state of hair desperation for months. My straightener died at the start of summer. Thus began the summer of the long poufy ponytail. After several failed attempts at actually getting a haircut I finally had an appointment and nothing was going to stop me. Nothing... except the fact that the car would not start. As Jonathan messed around with the car I called to cancel my appointment and tried to choke back tears. When to my great surprise Jonathan was actually able to get the car started (even though he never figured out what he did to do so) I said, "Whatever you do, don't turn it back off! I am GOING. I can always call someone for a ride home!! See ya!!" I'm pretty sure he tried to argue with that, but I was out the door before he had much of a chance.
After an hour of quiet, child-free, head massaging bliss with a miracle worker named Brianna I emerged a new person. And, the car even started. When I went to work the next day an eight year old boy said to me, "Natalie, I really like your new haircut!, but when you walked in I thought you were one of the teens." Remind to to forgive that blessed little boy the next time he attempts to drive me up a wall.
I asked Jonathan to take a picture of my new haircut. He said he would do it if he didn't have to get out of the chair he was sitting in. This is what I got:
Not the best picture of my face ever, but the hair looks pretty good. I guess it doesn't take much to beat a long frizzy ponytail.

Oooo, I like it! :) I am also in need of a haircut again - but it's such a challenge to find the time to go! The joys of being a mom, right?!?!?!
What a darling haircut. I really like it. It's very becoming on you. It's nice that you have the luxury of thick, thick hair. Does that make it easier to style? It does make you look younger.

Cute haircut! I totally know how you feel about haircuts. I absolutely love getting that precious hour of "me time" every few months. In fact I think I really need to call and make me an appointment. It's been too long...
Thick hair can be a blessing and a curse. I always have them do a lot of thinning so I don't end up with a mushroom. This has been super easy to style. I just add a little anti-frizz serum and a little gel out of the shower, scrunch and let air dry. If I really want to get fancy I can take a curling iron to redirect a few of the more stubborn/unruly curls on the top.
