Finding Myself

8 years ago, I went to St. George with my girlfriends and chopped my hair. It was super choppy and short. I really loved it... one of my favorite haircuts ever, but I started to grow it out because I was going on a mission and didn't want to look too cute :) (Actually, I just knew I wouldn't be able to get my hair cut as often). Anyway, for years I have gone back and forth between long and short, but I was trying so hard to play it safe that I never really got it right.

...until now! I went in on December 23rd to get my hair cut and colored. I feel totally liberated by my short hair and feel like I've found a part of myself that was lost (does this sound weird that I feel this way about a haircut?) Do you have a favorite haircut on yourself?

Mag--I love your haircut and it totally suits you. I am pretty ambivalent about hair--just like to do new things and always change it. I need to find the one that is the "real me" one of these days!

Oh Maggie, that is super cute! Totally fits your personality. Way to sacrifice cuteness for humility on your mission. :)

Way so cute! I'm glad you shared the picture. I was inspired by all the big, naturally curly hair I saw in Italy. But big hair doesn't seem as cute here--I'm working on embracing the real me. :)
