Before / After.

Before.

After.



"That's a boy haircut," was the reply of my 5 year old.

Adios ponytail.

I was sweating profusely during my haircut.
I couldn't tell if it was because I had so much anxiety about chopping my locks or if it was because Christopher, the stylist, was so cute.

If you need a new "do" go see Chris at Circa 79.
Tell him Michelle sent you.

Rachelle said...

I love it!!!!!!! Of course I think you would look beautiful bald or with a mohawk - one of the perks of having such a pretty face!

I'm sooo tempted to chop my hair. I want a cute trendy hair do and I think you may have just tipped the scale and made me want to do it!

Sailini said...

Short and chic. I like it alot. Short is best; easiest when you dress up or down like give it a lot of goo to spike it up or "wash and wear" it. See you in a couple of days.
Love Mom
