In October 2015 I decided to ditch my usual long hair for a drastic change (which I wrote about in this post - http://europecrazysrandomramblings.blogspot.co.uk/2015/10/the-long-and-short-of-it.html)
Whilst everyone was complimentary about my new 'do, I didn't share their enthusiasm. I knew what I wanted, but I ended up with a hairdo which just made me feel like an old woman. Now I know I'm getting older, but I still like to think that I look younger than my years. So I wanted a short haircut which is also more modern and edgy than the "old woman's bob" which many hairdressers seem to think you want if you are a woman of a certain age.
Needless to say, I grew my hair out, and once again I'd reached the stage where it's halfway to my waist. But I can't even wear it down and have to wear it up instead, such is the problem with a soaking head of hair which is something I've suffered for almost 4 years since starting the change.
Therefore I decided to take the plunge once again. This time I covered all bases and printed off some pictures from the internet of the precise hairdo I want. My hairdresser was very happy with this as she knew what she needed to do.
The end result was nearer what I was looking for, more layered and messy than the more sleek effort of last time. It will also be more versatile to style and who knows what might happen if I just leave it in its natural wavy state...!
Anyway I'm pretty happy with it just now. We will see how long that lasts eh!!
