Had no choice but to do the newlywed chop

i had let my hair grow for the wedding and didnt even get it cut in the LOOOOOOOOOONGEST time. On top of that, i had died it from blonde to red, then did red a couple of times then a few weeks before the wedding went back to blonde. Because of all that, my hair was just dead, at least 5 inches of it was fried. Since the HM ive had so much trouble with it, no matter how much i blow dry my hair it just laid flat and dead and looked horrible. Saturday night when we went out i put it in a ponytail as soon as we got out bc it just looked horrible so had no choice but to chop it off. I was planning to cut it anyways but just not yet but i do love it, now it looks like my hair has style and looks 100% healthier

here are pics but they were taken 8 hours after i cut it so the back was a bit messed up and stuff

i actually think im also going to go just a little bit shorter. I told him i wanted it up to where my neck ended and he did exactly that, now i think i want it to end in the middle of my neck and then as it goes towards the front it goes longer, its how it is now, the back is shorter and front is a longer

welcome to the club!!! It looks cute!!! i never thought Id cut mine as much as I did because I grew it out for like 2 years! I ended up cutting almost 7 inches off! But I purposely went shorter than I wanted knowing it would grow fast during the summer.

You're one of those who look good with your hair any shade. Blonder will be nice for the summer!

Re: Had no choice but to do the newlywed chop

thank you ladies...Its funny bc its actually a bit more work now, with long hair i can blow dry it quickly and its fine but shorter hair if i dont sit there and brush it under while blow drying it flips the opposite way so have to the ends for each section but i still like it

Re: Had no choice but to do the newlywed chop

So true. Many people say that it's easier to have short hair, but that's not even close to true! The only people who have 'easy' hair are the ones that can wash, brush and go and have pretty hair lol I'm SO not that person!

yeah mine doesnt stay either, in the back it flips the opposite way if i dont sit there and take time to do it. Thats why i want to get it shorter and do the stacked look to make it a bit easier in the back, the longer front part is alot easier to do
