I heart Lindsay!

So I got my hair cut yesterday. And I rather like it. I knew I would. Lindsay's got magic hands. I told her kinda what I wanted (because I suck at putting into words what I want my hair to look like; Jamie can attest. Rather interesting that I'm a Speech-Language Pathologist, helping others to express themselves better, when I myself can't do something as simple as telling any hair dresser what I want done with my hair, right? Ironic, really. And rather shocking that I haven't walked away from more haircuts crying...)

Anyway, I like my hair. Lindsay cut off 2 inches from the back (which is considerable when you take into account that my hair didn't even hit my shoulders...) Then she did some other stuff to make it cute.

My new 'do and the girl with the magic hands...

Thanks, Lindsay! You rock my world!

Ready for a change...

I already know what I'm going to do, so this isn't really a poll to get your opinions or anything. At least, I don't think that's why I'm posting this...

Anyway, through the past couple of years, I have had some fun with my hair. It took me a while to summon the courage to chop my hair off (almost completely!) just over 2 years ago. The girl who cut it kinda botched it, and so my sister-in-law Abby introduced me to Lindsay Smith, who salvaged the damage as much as she could. And I liked my hair. I kept going back to Brigham City to have her freshen the cut. Then 6 months after the initial chop (we're talkin' Dec 2006) I decided to grow it out. I knew that doing such a thing would be awkward, but I was ready for...more hair on my head, I suppose.

Me, Tracie and Brooke...

Here are some pictures of that awful process (of growing out my hair)...

I think this was taken in February '07.
I actually really like my hair in this picture...

You can't see it well, but you get the idea that it's growing!

(Please do what you can to ignore the startlingly white legs!)

Some days it looks really cute, and I've been getting compliments on it a lot lately. Longer is probably better. And don't worry, I'm not gonna butch it again. Somewhere in between short-short and how long it is now. Obviously. -I'm going to Brigham next weekend to have Lindsay do her magic. (By the by, she moved away to Vegas for most of my "growing my hair out" experience...but she's back now! I LOVE her and I'm excited to let her do her magic on my hair once again!) I'm thinking a messy bob cut. I haven't found a picture of what I want it to look like, but that's probably because I'm not sure how I want it to look.

Basically, alls I have to do is tell Lindsay, "Messy bob," and she makes it work. I love Lindsay...
