Eh?  Ehhhh?? So I’m thinking about cutting my hair for my 26th birthday.  Actually, I’ve been thinking about this for awhile, but at lunch today my coworkers may have convinced me.  “It’ll look so full and bouncy!” “It’ll make you look older - in a good way!” they said.  And most importantly, they told me, “It’ll grow back!” My reasons for this possible chop are the following: I haven’t had short hair since I was 11, and I figure if I’m going to cut it short in my adult life, it better be before I have kids.  I don’t ever want to be accused of getting a “mom bob.” Having long hair is just having long hair.  Short hair is a hairstyle.  I’m going to need a distraction from turning another year older, better it not be anything permanent.  Like a tattoo.  Or a cat. My birthday is - thankfully - more than a month away, but feel free to weigh in and encourage / discourage my oddysey into the land of the lob (long bob).

So I’m thinking about cutting my hair for my 26th birthday.  Actually, I’ve been thinking about this for awhile, but at lunch today my coworkers may have convinced me.  “It’ll look so full and bouncy!” “It’ll make you look older - in a good way!” they said.  And most importantly, they told me, “It’ll grow back!”

My reasons for this possible chop are the following:

  1. I haven’t had short hair since I was 11, and I figure if I’m going to cut it short in my adult life, it better be before I have kids.  I don’t ever want to be accused of getting a “mom bob.”
  2. Having long hair is just having long hair.  Short hair is a hairstyle. 
  3. I’m going to need a distraction from turning another year older, better it not be anything permanent.  Like a tattoo.  Or a cat.

My birthday is - thankfully - more than a month away, but feel free to weigh in and encourage / discourage my oddysey into the land of the lob (long bob).
