New hairs.

New hairs.
New hairs.
New hairs.
New hairs.
New hairs.
So yesterday I got bangs. I hemmed and hawed all week about getting bangs (fringe, if you will), but in the end I decided to stop being chicken and just go for it (hair does grow back, after all). I'm really pleased with how they came out, even if it does feel like a bird is sitting on my forehead. When you think about it, bangs are a pretty ingenious invention. I'm surprised no one else really talks about how ingenious they actually are. Got a blemish on your forehead? Bam, bangs to the rescue! Eyebrows need waxing? Just brush your bangs so they cover your eyebrows! I'm still trying to get used to looking at myself in the mirror, but I think I will quite enjoy life with bangs :)

Your blog provides so many little moments of happiness in my life when I am reading my RSS feed. Good for you for taking chances, "all life is an experiment."

Haha! I like the bird on the forehead comparison!

I feel you - it took me a while, as well. But, now I love mine!

Very cute. Bangs suit you. :)

I've had bangs my whole life (minus one year in junior high when I grew them out because it wasn't "cool" to have "little girl hair". Tsk tsk, self.) I would feel weird without them now. Though I do have a love/hate relationship with them. Sometimes they can be a real pain in the butt and won't look the way I want. But that's what braids are for. ;)

Where did you get that shirt from? Its amazing! (and your bangs look awesome- I find mine get greasier than the rest of my hair, so sometimes I just shampoo and blowdry my bangs)

@Tiffany Husband: Thank you! It's from Urban Outfitters.

They look great! I don't think I'll ever go bang-less again. They make you feel put together with zero effort. Love.

i've toiled over this same tress change myself; as of now, i'm still too chicken to actually go under the scissor blade, but who knows ... you may have a bangin' buddy sooner rather than later ...

You look great! I think you look better with this new haircut! Longer hair is a lot of work.
