Guess Who’s the Newest Victim of the Post-Wedding Chop?
August 7th, 2008 @ 1:33 pm by Mrs. Toucan
I am.
I haven’t had hair this short since I was 10 years old. It could take some getting used to… :)Anyone else planning on doing the post-wedding chop?

I wanted to do it too but all my friends and my hairdresser, said no, I’m not suitable for the chop =( bummers.
i looove it! i want to do it too, but everyone thinks i should keep it long.
Oh, I was SO excited to get my hair cut (post wedding) - I talked about it all the time. Afterwards I finaly felt like myself again.

You look great!
i think it looks good touc-y. Ms. Mango has been playing with the idea, don’t think she’ll go through with it.
Your hair looks fabulous!!! I CANNOT wait to chop my hair. I already told my fiance to not get used to this length because once the wedding is over, it’s gone!!! Maybe I should add in my vows (for richer for poorer, in short hair or in long,…).
Me likee! After the wedding it’s going! I am already starting to prep Mr. Cookie for the event!
oh you took the words right out of my mouth. I say at least once a day… I cannot wait to get my haircut after the wedding… it looks great!
So cute! I grew out my hair super long for the wedding and was all set to chop it off afterwards, but now I’m chickening out! I can’t bear the thought of parting with hair that took so long to grow out.
I can’t wait to cut my hair after the wedding! I’ve always liked my hair short and am only growing it out for the updo!
Did it. Have it. Love it. Yours looks fab.
You hair looks gorgi! I love it. I’ve been married for two months now and just cut off 8 inches. Hooray for the post wedding chop.
Mr. Av wants me to keep mine long for the rest of my life. I don’t think that is going to happen, but I think I will keep it for a few years at least. I just love how sassy and short yours looks!
Looove the hair cut!!!
You look fabulous! I had my post-wedding chop a few weeks ago. Still getting used to it but it’s a nice change.
I can not WAIT to chop off my hair. I’m contemplating whether I’ll have time to do it on the Sunday after the wedding before we leave for the honeymoon!
Love it! I chopped mine three days after the wedding while we were honeymooning in Maui. I am impatient!
Me too. I’m donating to Locks of Love. Doing it right after the honeymoon Yours looks great!
Oohhh I think it looks adorable on you! You have beautiful hair! I’m soooo choppin’ my hair after the wedding.
Looks great!
I chopped 7 inches off my hair after the wedding. No really, like RIGHT AFTER the wedding. I went from the salon to the airport for our honeymoon. I haven’t had hair this short in 20 years and I love it!
It looks great on you! I love it! I’d love to chop my hair off, but I’m not sure if I have the right face shape for it.
Loves it!
I am also going to be a member of that club.
I already have the appt set for the monday after! lol.
Yep I did! It felt great having shorter, more layered hair.. =)
Love it! I find this so amusing….why do we do this? I had to force myself to wait to cut my hair. two weeks after we got home, I cut about 10″ off!
looks great!! I can’t wait to chop mine off after the wedding!
I did this on my honeymoon! Chopped at least 7″ off and got my straight fringe back too. Definitely looking younger again…
More like the pre-wedding chop for me 
When I met FH, I had hair almost as short as his (and he’s in the military). He loves my hair short and I do too - I just happened to be too afraid to find a new hair salon this year, so my hair grew halfway down my back. Oops.
I’m going to do the PRE-wedding chop! I want to be a short haired bride.
I hope all of you choppers are considering donating the hair to Locks of Love. If you have 10 inches, you can get it sent to an organization that makes wigs for kids who have cancer.
I’ve done it twice. Where I live you can get a free cut when you particpate. I’ve met two of my very favorite stylists this way.
So don’t throw those locks away and some very cute, very sick little girl will thank you!
@Doctor Girl: I wish I could have donated my hair. 
Unfortunately no one will accept permed hair. It breaks to easy, and they can’t make wigs out of it.
Also, thanks everyone. I’m still getting used to it, so it’s nice to see everyone else likes the new ‘do!
I can’t wait to chop my hair after the wedding. I’ve had my hair longer than this before, but it really just gets on my nerves now. I can’t wait to both cut it AND change the color!
I’m donating mine, too, but I may wait a few months, since my man likes the long locks…I try to convince him how much easier life will be though with shorter hair….less planning around showering, etc. 
The 2nd day back from our honeymoon I had an appointment to cut it all off! I love short hair and had grown it out a bit for the wedding. So happy to cut it off!
I love it!!! And I am sooo cutting my hair after the wedding! I can’t wait!
New do looks great on you! My wedding is in less than 2 months, and I can’t wait to chop my hair after!
your hair is beautiful! why do guys love long hair??
pretty!
as for me, i am going for a pre-wedding chop, i really cant stand it having past the top of my shoulders - going to have a chin length bob for my wedding.
i did the chop 4 days after my wedding, and i love it!
Me me! I did it the day after and it felt amazing! You look great! Yay for Mass cuties

About Me: I’m a Gemini to the extreme. On one side, I’m a girly girl. I read countless bridal and fashion magazines, and have an obsession with keeping up with the latest Hollywood gossip. On the other side, I’m a sports fanatic. Despite being a full-time bride-to be, full-time research assistant, and part-time student, I’m also a full-time Red Sox fan from spring training to October, and a full-time Patriots fan from mini-camp to February. I devote almost as much time researching my for fantasy football team as researching for our wedding!
Me! Your hair looks awesome!
