I Chopped Off My Hair!

Wearing bandanas and baseball caps got a little old after my surgery to remove a huge cyst smack dab in the middle of my head. My hair was short and the sides longer and I got real tired of the Bozo the Clown look. Not bad since a couple of months ago I was shaved to the scalp about a 6X6 " area. I called it my landing strip. So I had it chopped off finally so that it all is the same length now. I have a small thinning spot where the cyst was but it's not so "in your face" now that it's all the same. Another 1 " growth and I can hide the spot. But I feel so FREE! I love short hair! It had been so long since I wore it, and this is the first time this short. And it also tells me how much confidence I have gained because I always thought to wear hair this short, you got to have confidence. lol  So here is the new, reinvented me!

Oh my Gosh, Melissa I really love that style on you.  I would not put a bandana or a hat back on if I were you.

How striking, Melissa!  

Landing stri*****t, that would've been a beautiful cut for you now, anyway!!!

You have the face for it - it's structured and gorgeous.  I love that it draws out your cheekbones and jawline in a way that longer hair wouldn't.  I don't know if you'll even want to grow it out for a while - it looks amazing!!!
