Shelby's reaction to haircut

I just dramatically changed my hair. It used to be down to my butt. I've had it like that for 15+ years & decided I was long overdue for a change. It's now cut to just past my shoulders w/long layers. It wasn't as drastic as Shelby's cut, but when I looked in the mirror, my eyes just started welling up. I couldn't help it. It was pretty shocking.

Now everyone says my cut is much better than the way I had it before. Some even say I look younger! My husband loves it too which is good. He's the reason I kept it so long in the first place! Now I wish I hadn't waited so long.

Anyone else cry over a haircut?

I'm not sure if she cried, but when I was a kid and my Dad cut my hair with a bowl, she was pretty upset. Never again !

Yes, don't worry! I cry every time I have to get my bangs recut—I always get so scared!
