She totally rocks the Audrey Hepburn look, and she's really happy with it. There is the ability with shorter hair to do some really cute 1950s styles, like the fabulous hair that Ava Gardner had in "Barefoot Contessa". I just don't think I can handle the styling regime, though! Anything more elaborate than a braid and forget it. ;)<br /><br />Also, I meant to say before that I love that necklace you're wearing! I have been tempted to get one in the past but always worried that it wouldn't look right. Now I'm kind of rethinking that based on your photos!Scarah Mascarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17174443596160075793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6121494988300540592.post-56488321866912740632011-02-01T11:00:20.210-05:002011-02-01T11:00:20.210-05:00Sarah, it's funny - I did almost NOTHING with ...Sarah, it's funny - I did almost NOTHING with my hair when I had it short and it's a much bigger hassle for me now.

I chopped my hair off in August 2009, right before starting grad school, and after the novelty wore off, I started getting really irritated with it. Thankfully, my hair grows fast, so now it's back down to the middle of my back, which is where I can actually deal with it. Short hair requires product and styling and actual effort to get it to look good, whereas long hair is for lazy people (ie. me). Put it back in a messy bun, throw it into a braid, let it hang loose... It all looks good and requires minimal effort. <br /><br />And in my case, it is way easier to do historical hair styles with long hair than to deal with wigs and hair pieces to get the appropriate look. But I realize not everyone is bound by that parameter when it comes to hair length. ;)<br /><br />I guess this all just means I'm really pro-long hair.Scarah Mascarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17174443596160075793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6121494988300540592.post-60480074637818333692011-01-31T23:06:34.224-05:002011-01-31T23:06:34.224-05:00Aww, thanks, Miss B!

We'll see what happens with my decisions and second decisions. <br /><br />Cynthia, your waffling help is most welcome! <br /><br />Thanks, Allison! Maybe my closet could teach your closet to puke?<br /><br />Thanks for your opinion, LHdM. The good news is that with hair, as we well know, things can change relatively quickly in whatever way you want. I love that you change up your hair frequently. I think I'm starting to tend back for the short hair, too.<br /><br />Oh, Terri. My hair was as long as it is now when I first cut it all off. I was planning to donate the foot of hair that I had amassed, but my mom begged to keep it for sentimental value. So somewhere in her closet is a dismembered ponytail of my hair. I think in her youth in South America it was more common to use fake hair for one's hairstyles.Chalkdust and Bootshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12149895782195943926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6121494988300540592.post-77545496597862841232011-01-31T22:13:38.006-05:002011-01-31T22:13:38.006-05:00I'll make a deal with you since I've been ...I'll make a deal with you since I've been slowly growing my hair out to wear the exact way you've styled it here!

I like to save dramatic hair chops for big deals- milestones, end of a stressful situation, etc. Also, weird hair eras can really work for some people.

And if you chop it off, maybe you can collect the hair and make your own cheesy hair extensions like the ones they sell on HSN. Or at least glue it to the inside of a hat so you have a hair-hat. See, I'm full of good ideas today.Katie, Interrobangs Anonymoushttp://interrobangsanon.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
