Anyone who has seen me since, let's say, 4th grade, knows what my hair looks like. I have had the occasional "long layers" and I have gone shoulder length a few times, but in general, I have had the same hair style since 4th grade: long and straight. Back in April when I responded to the "7 random things about me" blog tagging, I added a bonus that hair stylists do not like people with long hair. My theory on that is because long hair is not trendy. It's classic. It doesn't use a lot of hair "product" so a stylist can't add on to their sale by offering you some silly purple paste in a round aqua container when you visit their salon. Stylists also tend to be somewhat creative and they can't exercise their creativity by cutting in a straight line. (Those are my theories anyway. . .)
Well, I have been working myself up for MONTHS to cut my hair. I have issues taking steps like this because 1. I have a large head and I have always been self conscious about it and 2. I am going gray. For real. But yesterday I finally decided it was now or never.
So while it is much more interesting to blog about my sweet babe, I thought this was blog worthy, especially so my peeps in College Station, Houston and Singapore can see my new do!
The back is a little crazy. My mom asked me if it was even. The answer is probably no, but I can't really tell. I just know it is hard to style in the back. My hair has gotten really coarse and unmanageable in the back since having babes. Gotta love those hormones.

P.S. I love it and it is so trendy... look at you girl... that is awesome and I am so proud of your step.
Good job, Shelly! It looks cute and reminds me how desperately I need to change my current "shaggy dog" hairstyle. My hair got weird after I had Abbey and eventually settled back down, so yours might too. And re: Avery crawling: so fun! Look out world!
It is super cute!! I am the opposite- I have always had my hair short and have grown it long in the past year. Rach was trying to teach me the dojo when I was there last week- I cannot get it, mine is just always this big flop thing...
I really like your hair, I love the stacked back.
