Well, it is official: I am a new woman! My PWC (aka post-wedding-chop) was yesterday, and I definitely feel like I’m about 10 pounds lighter!
To be honest, any haircut at all would probably have made me feel amazing, but it feels SO good to have a bit of style back in my hair!
For perspective, I took a few photos before I left for the salon. It isn’t that my hair looked awful, per se, but it was just… blah… and long… see?
Excuse my serious face; it is hard to take your own picture reflected in the bathroom mirror!
Check out how long it was in the back!
My wonderful stylist agreed that a slight inversion would be good, and proceeded to give me a razor cut (because my hair loves razor cuts…). We removed almost 3 inches of hair in the back, left it SLIGHTLY longer in the front, and then gave me back my long bangs! Yay bangs! OK OK, I’ll stop talking and start showing you the photos:
I was soooo happy; can’t you tell???
A view of the side/back:
My bangs are back at around lip-level…much better than at chin level!
I know it isn’t a drastic cut, but I am so happy! When I first started growing out my hair, I was so certain that I would want to return to something short and spunky when the wedding was over, but I found myself getting slightly attached to my longer locks as time went by. This cut was a big relief: it is much shorter/has texture, but it is still long enough to pull back if needed (yes, if you are wondering, I can get it into a ponytail!). Anyway… I LOVE IT!
How excited were you/are you for the PWC?
It looks fantastic. The condition of it is also remarkable: silky and shiny! Jealous!
I’m really excited to chop, but I’m wavering since we have so many weddings to go to and be in this year. Perhaps I should wait until they are all over.
Where did you go? I’m dying to find a good stylist in Clearwater. I asked for long sweeping bangs and got stuck with short 13 year old girl bangs. Good thing hair grows lol
Looks great! I had a post-wedding trim, but I’ve decided to keep growing it out. I know, I’m weird. 
Look how happy you are! You look fantastic. My hair loves a razor cut too.
I am dying for my PWC!! My hair is halfway down my back at this point! And it looks DULL
Your hair looks great!
Lookin good! I’m ready for my PWC, but my wedding isn’t until Sept! Oi vey!
You look amazing! Now, if only I could figure out what to do with my overgrown hair, too!
I just got a pre-wedding trim and it was so hard not to tell her to just chop away! Can’t wait for my PWC in July/August - right in the heat of the summer.
Cute!!! I hadn’t been planning a PWC because I was seriously digging the long hair…but the closer to the wedding we get and the longer my hair gets, the more I just want it out of my face! I’ll probably get at least a shoulder-length cut after the honeymoon because it’s driving me C-R-A-Z-Y.
So pretty! I’m waiting for my mom to come here so we can get post-wedding perms together. : )
@cgruse: MOXI - it is actually in Palm Harbor. Laurie has been cutting my hair for about 10 years now…highly recommend you look her up! Feel free to PM me if you have any questions or want more info!
