TA-DA!

Done and done.  I'm loving my do and am so relieved it turned out just how I wanted and not a hack job. 

This was my inspiration for this cut.

Shaggy bob~short haircut super cute and easy to maintain!!

And this is what I got.

First, just as a reminder, this what I had before.




 
 
I ended up cutting 11 inches off.  What?!?!  I didn't even know I had that much left to cut off.  It ended up being enough to donate, so that was pretty cool.  Along with the color and cut I ended up changing my part.  It's been long overdue.  I've just been resisting it, but it was time to give in.  I have a ridiculous cowlick right at the front of my hair that screws my bangs up everyday, so I decided it was time to part it on the right side.  I actually really like it, it's just going to take some getting used to.
 
So I say she was pretty dead on as far as the style goes!  You gotta love when that happens.  I love, love, LOVE it!  I'm so glad I did it.  I am going to go darker in a couple months, but I'm liking the nice transition color.  I love doing drastic changes like this.  I feel like a whole new woman.  Thanks for all the comments on facebook and IG.  It made me feel suuuuuper special!!

My Hair

How about that exciting title.  Yup, I'm back.  I've got like three posts in the works, but this one is the easiest to finish.  Two more sleeps and I'm chopping my beautiful locks.  I'm freaking out.  I've grown especially attached to my hair this time around.  It's been a long time since it's been short, and I'm nervous it's going to be a complete hack job.  It's happened before.  Nothing is worse than a bad hair cut.  NOTHING! 

For fun I've compiled a history of Janna's hair.  It's very exciting. 


1. This is my 99% of my life, until I got up the nerve to chop my hair and dye it dark in grade 11. 

Just me and my bestie taking some fiiiiine pics in her backyard.  Good grief.

2. Then this nightmare happened.  Stephen was not impressed.  I was at the hair school for six hour.  SIX HOURS!!  I was sure my hair was going to fall out.  I  actually did it when my hair was long and it was completely dead so I ended up cutting it like a week later.  I lost 90% of my natural curl.  Dang it!  And Stephen gave me the silent treatment for the next day because I couldn't pick him up from work.  Sorry hun.....sooooooo sorry. 
 
 
3. Then I went completely opposite. A bit better.  Stephen called me his Asian wife for a while. 

 
4. I got desperately sick of short hair....so I spent ridiculous amounts of money and got me a weave!  Good idea????  Not really.  But I liked it for the two months it lasted.
 
 
5.  Then I was done with dark and returned to the blonde.  I still don't know which I prefer.  My poor hair...


 
 
6. Seriously....my poor hair.  It's been way too heavily colored.  I don't know how it's still in decent condition.  I actually really liked the blunt bang look, but it grows out so quickly I got sick of maintaining it. 

 
7. And so this is how I've been the majority of the last 2 years...minus the baby bump for a large portion of that time.
 
 
So what do you think????  It's all going down Thursday!  I'm pretty sure I know what I'm going to do, but I'm completely open to people swaying my mind.  Tune in Thursday to see what happened!
