So , I know a lot of you ladies out there had some drastic hair cuts right after the wedding - and now I am joining the club!

Pre-wedding (I stole this from the sunglasses thread!)

And today!

I haven't had hair this short in years!

Anyone else have some before/after pictures to share?

Cute!

I am a big fan of shorter hair because it's so much easier to "coif" and maintain (at least it is for me).

I kept it "longer" to get the curls for my wedding day -

By the time my first anniversary rolled around - it was considerably shorter -

I like to change it up every now and then. This is what I have now (experimenting with flipping it out) -

I did the post wedding haircut thing too and HATE myself for it :(

Before:

After:

She thinned it way out and cut the layers WAY too short. I ended up having to get a temporary body wave put into it to make it look halfway decent :( I sure hope it grows back out SOON!

That stinks that you don't like it! I think the way the layers frame your face is cute!

This is totally my intention too! Right now ( I dn't have pic's b/c I'm at work) I have a body wave in it...and its right at my shoulders. By my wedding in May it will probably be a good few inches down my back. But after the wedding I intend to get it cut into a "bob" with layers framing my face this is my fav hair style:grinhappy:

I really like all ya'lls post wedding cuts, they are too cute!

I have changed my hair a few times since I got married ...

May 2005 (don't really have any good pics from the day) -

http://www.hotrodpowertools.com/hers/us_party.jpg

December 2005 (I had really gained some weight then); pretty much the same, but shorter -

http://www.hotrodpowertools.com/hers/Christmas_2005_us.jpg

I pretty much kept it like that until late 2007 when I did the stack in the back thing ...

http://www.hotrodpowertools.com/hers/stack_hair_1007.jpg

Then this year I have changed it several more times -

http://www.hotrodpowertools.com/hers/mepixie004.jpg


This is the most recent -

I am still not sure if I should keep it short or grow it out. It is in that in between stage now and I am just not sure what to do with it.

Brandi I just have to say I loved all your hairstyles! But my fav would have to be the most recent, I wish I had the ka-honeys:) to get mine cut that length, But I dont' think I really have the face shape for it either....it looks so awesome on you though!

Thanks :) I didn't want to cut that short cause I didn't think it would look good on me. Then DH kept commenting how he thought it would be "hot" so I finally tried it.

I am surprised that I have gotten the most compliments on my hair since it has been on the shorter side that I really ever have!

And here I am right before the wedding, and I LOVE IT!! (It's getting too long already at about 2.5" longer than this):

Thanks Sarah! I just stole it from my haircut thread... It's longer now - it hit a growth spurt right after I cut it, so it's getting *too* long now. I think I'll go a little shorter next time :)

This picture was taken on our honeymoon -

http://a828.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/119/l_e53f5a1c3724fd537216a57ce435f073.jpg (http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=53544509&albumID=1807129&imageID=24380293#a=1807129&i=24380297)

I loved the way it looked the whole time we were in Mexico. It was just slightly wavy and I never had a bad hair day! However, when I'm at home in Texas the unbelievable humidity gets a hold of my hair and it never looks this good. Soooo I chopped it off a month after the wedding -

http://a330.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/74/l_07f885018dd3e3c35299518d81184b31.jpg (http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=53544509&albumID=1094669&imageID=23905527#a=1094669&i=24481932)

This was right after it was cut so it was still all perfect from the hairdresser. It was a little too blown out and perfect, but I still loved it! Problem is that I realized we just don't have the money for an expensive salon and I won't let a cheapie place do anything but give me a trim so I'm letting it grow out again. *sigh* Now I wish that I wouldn't have cut it in the first place! This is what it looks like now -

http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e102/keelyhealthnut/galveston032.jpg

It usually looks a little better than this though! I had slept in the truck that night and didn't even have a brush! (BTW - I really need to post about that weekend! LOL)

Im getting mine cut off sometime soon. And maybe darkened, I did last year and it came out way darker that I thought. I ended up liking it but at first I wanted to cry.

Here is a recent pic. Its from my myspace (hope it worked). Im at work and couldn't find a good on in my photobucket.

EDIT: yeah that didn't work at all.:snide: I will have to try again when I get home.

When I have time I flip the bottom of the back out and mess it up more, like this:

Wow, so I'm not the only one with the idea of chopping my hair off after the wedding day. I've been growing mine out for the purpose of having more options for the wedding. I'm not sure how long I'll let it grow to before I go crazy and decide to cut a little bit of it.

I used to have really long hair because I hated getting it cut at places... but once I finally did start getting it cut, I haven't gone back to the really long hair. I wish I had before and after pics of the really long, to the medium long, to the shoulder length and a little longer that it's at now. It'd be a pretty big difference.

OHHHh, now I'm itching to get mine cut:) FH wants to see it long b/c up til 11th grade (when I decided I needed a change) it was WAY down my back.
Now its right at my shoulders, but i'd love to get it cut something like Kirby's!

All of ya'lls hair is so cute!

I went short and spikey in 2000. Then I grew it out in 2005. I hated it. I cut it short again same style too lol.. In 2007. Sad but I have had the same hair style for 8 years just about.. lol

I'm thinking of the opposite--cutting my hair shorter for the wedding (just above the shoulder)! I hate wearing it down when it's too long because it ends up in my eyes or mouth. I usually only get a haircut once or twice a year.

Well the truth is mine is bone straight on the top front, so if I wear it curly I have to pull the front up or push it behind my ears.
