Talking I cut my hair and ...

got a tattoo all in one weekend!!!! I've been debating cutting all my hair off for weeks now. Something kept sticking in my mind my mom told me a long time ago. She had said the most large women don't look good with short haircuts. It's stuck with me all these years but I kept looking at Sandi's picture and how pretty she is with her short hair. My hair has started looking like a haystack and I just decided to take the plunge and do it.
I didn't want to go to a stylist in the town where I work because they are so darn expensive and I wasn't really impressed with what I got the last time. I called Saturday and the salon I like to visit could fit me in. (It's in my hometown and only cost $12 for a shampoo and cut)
This is what my hair started looking like (the top one was taken a couple days ago. The bottom was in March and my hair still had a great color and shine to it)

And I went to this:


Finally, My SIL does tattoos and I've been bugging her for a while to do this one. She had a couple of cancellations and already had her stuff out and ready so I went over last night and had it done. Let me tell you the thing hurt like ****. It was bearable but it never went numb like Jeff told me it would. I think she did a super awesome job on it and I'm really impressed!!!

I love your haircut! How CUTE!! I love my short hair...so much easier to maintain. Tattoo is adorable! Is that on your arm? I think I am too much of a wimp to get a tattoo.

You look great, and what a cute tat... one of my best friend's loves tink, but is too chicken to get a tattoo, although she always says she wants one. Once again, you look so good, guess mom was wrong. I may have to cut mine again soon.. getting too hot to run with all this hair, lol.

I'm too much of a wimp for a tatoo... but I've always said that I would get a life size ladybug if I was ever to get one. I'd have it on my shoulder - then people would say "there's a bug on you.." hehe

Love the hair .. cute. It must feel awesome to wash n' go with it now.
What does hubby think?

I cut my hair and got a tattoo when I lost weight too! I used to use my "big hair" as camoflage. Obviously, if my head was so big, my body must look smaller, right??

Tattoo didn't hurt that badly at all, nothing unbearable

I love the haircut! It really shows off your eyes, too. And that tattoo is adorable! I love the sparkly

I've had long hair for so long; the last time I got it cut I thought I looked like a boy.

BUT, I need to get it at least trimmed, and I think that I'm going to ask the new guy who does my hair (I dumped the hairdresser who made me look like a boy) what he thinks would look good with my very round face and double chin.

I have to be so careful, because I have curly hair, and it can really make my face look huge if it's not cut right.

You're giving me ideas....

Your haircut looks terrific...it really shows off your cheekbones. I don't know about the weight-hair length connection, but I think you definitely need to have a certain type of hair to wear it short - and you do! Looks great.
