The Other Countdown

It's been more than a decade since my hair has been as long as it was on my wedding day. It looked beautiful all pinned and curled, but let me tell you, I hated living with it day to day. It doesn't really look good long - sort of scraggly, lifeless, and unflattering to my face. The last few weeks, I've given up completely and had a ponytail everyday. It was miserable.

But today, my friends, was the last day I shall ponytail.


Today marks a newlywed's rite of passage for me: The PWC. Post Wedding Chop. The Wife Cut.

And it is amaaaaaaaazing.


Seven inches later, I feel sooooooooo much better.

I feel like I am back to my old self. Back to normal. And it feels so healthy!

I've been looking forward to this just about as much as the wedding, and it was so worth the wait!

Yay for short(er) hair! I did the same thing- growing it out was hell but probably worth it.
