The long and the short of it

Our house is a hairy home -- between having long-haired cats and long-haired girls, we vacuum often, keep lint rollers handy, and we pour through the shampoo & conditioner. Despite the hairy situation, we like long hair.

Change is good. Right? But not too much change.

Liesey decided to have her tresses trimmed after "Alice in Wonderland" was finished, but the requirement was that it still had to be long enough to go into a bun with minimal effort. Her mane could be shorter, but not TOO short.

Here's what the ballet bun looked like before the hair appointment. It kinda looks like a giant Cinnabon minus the gooey glaze.


"BEFORE"

Debbie at "Article" was the stylist chosen to cut Rapunzel's hair. :-)
Snip, snip here. Snip, snip, there...
and lots of hair on the floor!
The new 'do is about 8 inches (or more) shorter than
the old one, and there are a few light layers in the
front. There wasn't quite enough hair cut off to
donate to Locks of Love, but all that hair did
make a nice contribution to the garbage can.
