Yesterday I got my post-wedding haircut and Thank God because knights of columbus has it been hot here! I was dying under all of that hair. I made an appointment with Grant Bray, the wonderful stylist who did our hair for the wedding and started looking for inspiration. I found this pic on TMZ.com and took it in to Grant hoping for something close to Katie’s new haircut.
Here is what my hair looked like yesterday morning:
And this is how I have been wearing it for the last 3.5 years:
While I was going to school I was either too tired before an 8:30 am class or I was reading all day, and so I just always had it up in a pony-tail. Now that I am starting work in a law firm I figured it was time to start being an adult and get a “grown-up” haircut. Here are the results! (Sorry for the awkward self-portraits!)
It is very different from anything that I have had before but I love it! My head feels about 10 lbs lighter and my hair looks so healthy. Best of all… Grant spent 2 hours on my hair and only charged me $35!!! I am telling you Sasky brides out there - snap him up now because he will not stay a secret for long!
Have you been growing your hair out specifically for the wedding? Are you planning on changing your hair after the wedding?

Looks amazing Mrs. Pumpkin! It really compliments your face- your eyes really stand out now! I just got my first “grown up people” cut too!
Miss Pumpkin, GREAT haircut! Love it.
I feel as though most brides have long hair…but I’ve kept mine short (similar to your new ‘do, actually) for the wedding. I get so annoyed when people were asking, “Are you going to grow out your hair?” Now, with the wedding just over two weeks away, they’ve finally quit 
LOVE the new look!! Not sure what I’m doing after the wedding. I’ve grown my hair pretty long (though it stays up most of the time) and got so many compliments at my shower… Before that I told my FI that I was going for a chop after the wedding.. now I’m not sure. But yours- YOURS looks amazing and may give me confidence to chop 
It’s only hair right?
I started growing mine last summer for my brother’s wedding having worked my way through every variation of the chin length bob for the previous 8 years. It’s now hitting my shoulder blades and everyone comments on how long it is but i’m not particularly enamoured of it…
And just to be annoying, the FI thinks it looks best back in a quick mini french pleat that I do most days. Ie Up. My ears are not even funny.
What’s a girl to do?? I might join you in the land of the chop, but maybe even pre-wedding!x
Ooohh I love it. Better than Katie’s due if you ask me. Hers is very matronly and yours is “hip young professional.” I am grown my hair out for the wedding (have been for a year) and it’s SOOO long. I just got a trim yesterday to make it a bit healthier, but didn’t loose the length.
Post wedding I think I will cut it — maybe back to just below my shoulders, but my hair is very fine so a cut as short as yours makes me nervous. Anyway, kudos to your “new married hair cut!”
I love your haircut!
I have always had short hair, and I decided to grow it long for my wedding, because I always pictured myself with an elegant updo. So I spent a year growing it out and after the wedding, I chopped it short again. Looking back at my photos, I wish I would have kept my hair short for the wedding - it is more “me”
Faaaaabulous! And I plan on chopping my hair immediately following the honeymoon!
Oh definitely. I’ve grown it out a bit and I can’t wait to shorten it, but I’m also tempted to go from blonde to brunette. Everybody tells me not to do it immediately after the wedding because it will freak out the new hubby.
beautiful! i plan on hacking mine off to a cute bob like yours after the wedding! and my FI wants to shave his, so I told him he has the green light then too
Your haircut is sooo cute!
I love it! Love it! Love it! It works soo well with the shape of your face. Work it girl!
I am in unison with everyone else. The haircut looks great! Shorter bobs are definitely in this year. I’ve always been too wussy to cut my hair above shoulder though. Maybe I’ll do it, eventually… but really, it looks SO GOOD! Does Mr. Pumpkin like it?
Your new haircut looks GREAT! I am also growing my hair out for our wedding, but have a hair appointment booked for the first day back from honeymoon! LOL I HATE having long hair!
I think I am the opposite of basically all brides — I am 9 months away from the wedding, and a few weeks ago I cut off 11.5″ to donate to Locks of Love!
I had been planning on donating since before my fiance proposed, and I knew if I didn’t just do it now, I would have to at least cut off a few inches because it was SO long, and that would defeat my goal of growing it out. So, I just went ahead and cut it all off the day before the engagement party and completely surprised everyone! I figure I will get another 5″ or so out of it before the wedding, and it’s at my shoulders now…
Super cute! I too am totally inspired by Mrs. Cruise’s new do:)
