I have something I need to get off my chest.
I feel so guilty.
Maybe it's because from the time we are 2 we are told it is bad. I cry every time my kids do it. I have taught them how bad it is. Tell them often never to do it. I make them promise to NEVER do it again.
Danger.
Bad.
Disastrous.
I CAN'T fix it if they decide to do it.
Here I am in a new State. Across the Country. Away from everything familiar. I miss my friend Molly. Molly is very talented. She has cut my hair for the last 8 years. I don't know where to go now. I don't know who to trust, who to see. It's really expensive here. I haven't had a hair cut for MONTHS!!
A fellow artist planted a seed in my mind. She said "you're an artist. Just cut your own hair."
She cuts her own hair.
I know this because I asked her who cut her hair, hoping I could get a referral. Her hair is really cute. I stewed over this for days.
Chad was out of town. No one was around. My heart was pounding. Dare I break the rule? The one we learn from such a young age?
So here is my confession...
I cut my own hair a few weeks ago.
It was fun.
It was messy.
I love it!
I don't know how it looks from behind, but the ends feel better.
Chad kept complimenting my hair...so I confessed to him.
He was happy...happy to save money.
Maybe I'll get a nice pair of shears for my birthday.
Now I am thinking about color. It might be fun. Probably messy too.

Marci, You are simply gorgeous!! I miss you!! Awesome on running, I am proud of you, and your hair, AWESOME!!!Color is really fun, I have gone light to dark several times, so I say definitely do it!!
You're beautiful! Pretty soon people will be asking you where you go, and you would have had to confess anyway!
You are such a talented girl! The hair looks great.
you look beautiful!!! I colored my hair today, and I cut it on occasion, but that's what I do anyway, I'm a cosmetologist:)
Way to go. It looks good. I've cut may hair before as well since it's so expensive in NYC and I can't get myself to waist that kind of money.
In our early marriage I couldn't bring myself to spend $100 on a cut and color so GUY would cut my hair! For years! I have done my own too and colored it! You go girl! It looks great!
p.s. love the toaster story!
