Chopped, Chung, Tears, Home Depot

Riddle me this.  Why is it that I thought that when I chopped my hair off on a whim, I felt I would emerge out of the salon looking like Alexa Chung?  I mean I knew I was not going in to have facial reconstruction surgery, shed a few pounds, grow a couple of inches, and become a fashion sensation because my locks were gone.  Since I looked less like Ms. Chung than I had planned, I thought I needed to do a little something to share my new look with you.  So, naturally I wore my favorite sequin dress. 

Well, regardless, here is the new cut.  I am excited and I am not regretting it.  I needed something fresh and new, and my hair was just not healthy.  I also really wanted it to be all one length.  But I would be lying if I told you there were not any tears in Home Depot when we where purchasing a lawn mower this weekend shortly after I left the hair salon.  Changing your hair is a big deal, and yes it grows back, but not over night.  It is funny how attached we get to a certain hairdo, makeup routine, outfit, etc....and feel a little unlike ourselves when we change things up.

On a side night, who cries in Home Depot?  I guess I do.  But come to think of it, this was not the first time.  There was also that time I was losing my mind after several days of painting our dining room.  Cried then too.  Stay tuned for a couple of more looks of the new cut this week, but in the meantime...what do you think??  Happy Monday...J
