That’s the Pre-Wedding Bob for all you acronym neophytes.

Or I just made it up.

Take your pick.

Anyhoo, like many brides-to-be I’ve been growing out my hair. I am not really sure why I decided to prescribe to this time honored tradition, because even with my super hair growing powers, it’s not like I’m gonna be Rapunzel (she’s the long haired one right?) come September. Then again, my most favorite hair inspiration ever does involve long(er) hair. You remember the ’60s right?

So with the wedding fast approaching, I’ve been patiently putting off cutting/dyeing. I figured I’d wait until a few weeks before the wedding and then actually make a decision. Yes. It seem(ed) a little crazy, even to me. But whatevs.

Then this past Saturday I just happened to be in my stylist’s neighborhood…

My super amazing, shecandomiracles, longest relationship ever (7 years) stylist. So naturally I couldn’t resist popping in to see if she had time for a quick trim.

You see where this is going, right?

I sat down and said I wanted short, thick bangs (an old standby favorite). Then during a mind-blowingly awesome, 15 minute head massage, I began musing about a short, choppy bob…

Done and done.

Next thing you know I had this:

And I love it! (Even in crappy office light w/no makeup & unstyled!)

So now I just need to decide if I want to leave the color as it is or dye it dark brown, which is another standby favorite. There is this weird sentimental (or something) part of me that thinks I should leave well enough alone and get married with my “real” hair. However the reality is that I’ve spent far more of my adult years with dyed hair than with my natural hair of the moment anyhow. And I do love how it looks dark:

So what do you guys think? Dyed dark or au naturel?

What about you? Are you growing/cutting/making drastic changes to your hair before your wedding?
