Any of you ladies doing this?!?!? I'm growing my hair out now and have been for a while, so I'm thinking about going drastic after the wedding. If so, are you doing it before the honeymoon? or after?

ha ha contrary to mima... i cant WAIT to cut it allllll off!!!!

yeeee haw!

i want to donate it to locks of love and i cant wait to save $$ and time in teh shower!!!

That's what I did 6 months ago!

6 months ago I cut my almost waist length hair all the way up to my ears. My mom(the survivor) thought I was completely nuts but It's such a great cause!

I really hated it at first but I'm finally at the point where it's long enough for a ponytail but not long enough for the wedding.

I can't wait to do it again

I was actually thinking of doing the 'pregnancy chop' instead of the newlywed chop! LOL (Does that term even exist??!! haha)

I was thinking when Im pregnant, its a good time for something shorter and fresh, so im not all hot and bothered with my hair and all my hormones raging!! LOL And plus when the babys born I dont have to worry so much about taking forever to do it b/c its too long

Re: Newlywed Chop

I'm going back to my pixie cut after the honeymoon. I hate having long hair, but I wanted to be able to do something with it at the wedding. I'm glad someone posted about locks for love. I'll be donating to Pantene now.

Re: Newlywed Chop

I will probably cut it to my shoulders. Right now its down my back! Im a May bride, so I figure Ill do a shorter summer cut!

Re: Newlywed Chop

Haha I was totally thinking the other day how I want to cut my hair after my honeymoon! Not toooo much, but def take a few inches off before summer.

Re: Newlywed Chop

I'm going to cut it after the honeymoon. When I met FH I had really short hair and he LOVES it short, so I plan to cut about 10-12 inches off

Re: Newlywed Chop

its weird but my hair is ALOT harder to manage when its short. When its long, in the summer if i left my house without drying it, it would be perfectly fine. I can blow dry it extremely quick. When i cut it short, my hair is so thin and soft that for some reason the short length makes it flip the opposite way and in order for my hair to look decent i have to really sit there and blow dry it very well and each section i have to fix the ends with a brush and blow dryer. So for me short hair is more maintenance

I agree. Short takes a lot more time when you have lots of hair and/or thick hair.

I cut my hair a few months ago b/c I was sick of it long, and I HATEEEEEE it. I will never do it again!!! Its finally growing out. I cannot deal with not being able to wear a ponytail.

hmm thats a good point, i wouldnt be able to not wear a ponytail! lol

well if its short enough no pony necessary
hahaha good point!!!

im not sure if i will go back to that short short length.. meg ryan hairstyle...

it was WONDERFUL cute and easy!

That is kind of what i was thinking of doing. something super easy to style and no fuss. as my hair gets longer it gets frizzier and it takes soooo much work to make it look smooth. hate it.
