Locks of love

I found today that one of the best ways to celebrate a birthday is by removing about 20 pounds of hair. It's quite refreshing (and a lot lighter!).

I've been planning on cutting my hair for about a year, but I struggled to grow it as long as possible so that I could have a mighty long contribution for Locks of Love. I hope they find a good use for that rat's nest!

    Thanks! It's taking some getting used to. Last night when I was going to wash my face I found that I had very little left for a pony tail!

    I had to take Sadie with me yesterday. She was waiting in the car for me and when I came walking up to the car it looked to me like she did a bit of a double take before she realized it was me. :)

    Nice haircut! That's quite a commitment to grow it out for so long. I'm sure that your locks will go towards something awesome.

    I'm growing mine out now, but I've got a ways to go before I can give any of it away, since I go crazy if I can't tie it up (and nobody wants hair from a mad woman).
