It&#8217;s been driving me nuts for months and I never wanted to get it cut because it was so long and I knew getting it cut even to what other people consider long would be a drastic change for me.   The last while though it&#8217;s just been completely absurd.  I&#8217;d wash my hair, put conditioner in it and leave it for ages and <em><strong>still<\/strong><\/em> couldn&#8217;t get a comb through it afterwards.   For the past three years or so I&#8217;ve been dying my hair an awful lot&#8230;  bright red, purple and black, red and black and any other color I felt like at the time.   It&#8217;s finally taken it&#8217;s toll because my hair was starting to feel like a birds nest after I wash it.  Just one giant tangle hanging down my back.   What a nightmare!<\/p>\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.breigh.com\/mt\/pics\/shorthair.jpg\" border=\"2\" alt=\"\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" \/><\/div>\n<p>If it looks like there is a dent across my hair, that&#8217;s because I put it in a ponytail when it wasn&#8217;t totally dry.<\/p>\n<p>This morning I said enough is enough and made an appointment to get it cut.    I wasn&#8217;t sure how much I was going to get cut off though.  When I got there I decided to go about half way.  My hair was down to my butt so I thought I&#8217;d get it cut to about bra strap length which would be about halfway down my back.  It ended up a little shorter than that but it&#8217;s ok.  I also had some long layers cut into it but that&#8217;s not all that noticable.   It feels so weird now!  Almost a foot cut off and my ponytail seems so short!   I will maybe go a bit shorter next time and then let it grow out a bit over the winter.. or who knows, maybe I&#8217;ll keep it shorter.<\/p>\n<p>The good thing about having it shorter is that if I wanted I could make my hair black and get some wacky colored extensions (omg I could have my purple back!).  I could never have extensions before because they didn&#8217;t even make them as long as my hair.   That&#8217;s what lead to the massive bleaching which lead to the death of my hair.<\/p>\n<p>I still have a while to go before all the not-so healthy hair is gone, and boy is it going to be weird not getting and crazy colors done.  I really love that :(   Back to my old mousy brown for me for a while.   Well, after this black and red grows out I mean.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I finally got up the nerve to get my hair cut!
