8 inches

{I'm sorry for the unmade bed...}
Last week, I decided to cut a bit over 8 inches of my hair off.  The water here can be quite harsh and there was just too much damage.  I also took it as something of turning over a new leaf.  I was going for sulty, French girl.  Not sure I accomplished it, but I still have enough hair for a top knot.  You can see my old hair here, here, and here.

Do you follow your impulses with your hair?

It looks gorgeous, especially in that last photo. What a beautiful natural wave.

It looks beautiful! I'm not very impulsive with my hair because the curls tend to misbehave if I try anything too out of the ordinary. Long & layered is my go-to look!

Ooh LOVE it!! I hardly ever cut my hair, but thats only because I was scarred for life when my mom got me a bowl cut ;)
(and is that cardigan from Urban Outfitters? I have the same one in light blue, haha)

I'm a coward when it comes to my hair. I really want a bang but too scared to get it cut.

Loving the photos!

My hair and I are perpetually in battle :(

The new hair looks great!
I recently shed a few inches myself, though typically I hold out for months and months before getting a cut.

Chic on the Cheap

You look incredible!
I'm the laziest person when it comes to hair, (wash and go is about all I can handle,) so it ends up growing very long and then I just chop it all off...at least I'm never worried about a bad haircut, it always grows back...

It looks great! And you are brave. I think I might have a hard time cutting off 8 inches of my hair.

Josie said...

Lisa, it looks AMAZING! I love your new haircut -- I wish I had the courage to cut so much off!

LOVE your hair!! Love the wave and the side bangs. I keep trying to get side bangs, but my hair just won't let it happen.

Vanisha said...

You have gorgeous hair! I've always kept mine short...

Beautiful Lisa, and I hope a little easier to get out of bed and get to work with (looking great).

Mad jealous of your cheekbones too...
