chop chop

Morrigoon · 07-25-2005, 11:13 AM

Thinking of chopping off my hair again. If I do it, this time I'll cut the full dontatable 10 inches off. Get some cute, perky hairdo for the rest of summer. Kinda torn though, as I only just got it permed like... 3 months ago. Then again, it was a $30 perm, so it's not like I made a huge investment.

Should I do it? Or leave my hair as it is?

I admire people who chop it all off.

Eventually, when I get sick of coloring my hair, I'll let the roots grow and I'll cut it really, really short. Which, sadly, makes me look like an ugly boy from certain angles, but I LOVE short hair. So freeing.

I say chop it. You can *always* grow it long again.

I LOVE my short hair. It takes me almost NO time to care for it and it makes mu life so much easier (not that it is difficult

). If you have enough to donate, do it now.

This summer's meltdown calls most strongly for the chop-chop.

Get out those sharp choppers and chop some suey.

Mid-westerners would practically KILL for our mere 107 valley temps. So do your part to instill national harmony and forgodsake at least cut all your hair off. Don't throw it in their faces that you can have long hair and still survive.

I noticed you had put the "full donatable 10 inches" in your post. To whom do you donate your hair and is there information on that?

I'd love to grow out my hair and donate it!

LV- the usual place to donate is Locks of Love. (Unless Morri has another place she is thinking of). Our salon is a participating salon, and I don't charge for the haircut when someone is kind enough to donate their hair. Just a few weeks ago, I cut one of my clients' near waist length hair, which he grew specifically to donate.

Thanks WB! I'll contact my hairdresser and see what they can do for me if I donate my locks!

Bald baby, bald!

Morrigoon · 07-25-2005, 02:05 PM

Yeah, I meant Locks of love. Last time I only took off 7", so I didn't have enough. This time, if I'm gonna do it.... well, yeah. Goodness knows, I've got enough hair, though it would require going shorter than I've had since kindergarten. But then again, my hair grows FAST, so if I hate it it'll be gone soon enough.

Go for it! Did the deed before the Japan trip - bagged it up for Locks of Love. You get a fresh new look and someone in need gets something out of it. Like iSm said, the summer's here. Now's the time.
