I really did it

I'm enormously pleased with the way it turned out! Lighter, cooler, and I can't stop playing with it. :)

Haircut Before & After

It looks great! Now you get to spend the next several weeks adjusting to how much less hair you have. You won't believe how many reflexes you've built up around that length of hair.

I noticed one already - I flicked my hair aside getting into the car yesterday, but didn't need to!

Each time I've gone significantly shorter, it's taken at least a month to adjust. Oddly, it was easier for me to adjust when I cut my hair down to about an inch than it was when I went from 3/4 of the way down my back to merely shoulder-length. Shoulder-length hair still swung, and still covered my neck, so I had no easy reminder that I was missing 10" until I went to move it out of the way of my shoulder bag and realized I didn't need to, or when I went to comb it and wondered why the comb was hitting empty air so quickly.

... not having to lean to the right when rolling up the car window, so the hair wouldn't get trapped in the closed window.

I did that for several days the first time I cut all my hair off. :)
