This past weekend I finally got my Post Wedding Chop! Since it was Mr Poodle’s graduation, and SIL came for the celebration, I asked her to give me the cut we had talked about since Easter. She is a teacher now at her cosmetology school, so I really trusted her to do this job!

I haven’t cut my hair as short as I decided to go for more than 4 years, so it was a very extreme decision for me, but I really wanted to donate my hair to Locks of Love. I read about it the first time I cut my hair, but since I was in Chile I just gave it to the salon. Later I’d read that I could have saved it and donated it later, so donation was my goal when I started to grow my hair again.

So now let me show you what happened that afternoon!

We wanted to be completely sure the hair was clean so I washed it again right before the haircut. My SIL then proceeded to measure and put my hair in a ponytail.

Then with butterflies in my stomach, she started to cut! I have TONS of hair!

… and my hair was gone!

So now, here’s the before and after:

I cant believe how light my head feels and it’s perfect for the summer!

And in Curly’s case, we decided to give him a full haircut because he was looking like this:

3 weeks a go, Curly went outside before we went to bed, like every other day, but this time there was a Coyote waiting for him, so he got hurt really badly. Luckily Mr. Poodle heard the struggling outside, because the coyote got Curly in a way that he couldn’t bark or yelp. We ran outside and the Coyote ran away, and we rushed to the vet where they did surgery, closed everything up, and put drain tubes in his neck, chest, and on both of his sides. It took about a week for him to be pain-free and to be able to sleep normally. But now he’s so much better, and since we wanted to leave that incident behind, we decide to cut all of his hair off and even him out.

So, this is Curly’s before and after!

He looks really skinny, and even though I do like his long hair better. I just picture him saying the same thing to me, so we are even.

How short did you/will you go for your PWC?
