I an so envious of your curls!!!! I wish I had hair like that.

I cant believe how long it was. How long did it take to grow? I definitely think the short suits you better. It frames your face beautifully. What did hubby say?

[smittenbyu]

hehehe curls can be fun and nerve-racking!

I didn't realise either it was this long until I took the photo and took a look! It took me since May 2007! I did get a trim last year, just two inches off. It slowly crept up on me! ;) But this is slow rate for me! It used to take about 14 months before.... ah well. I might do it again..lets see!

It only tool 2 years????????? WOW!! If I ever wanted hair that long I would need to be growing it close on a decade and that's with no trims :S

When I got married it took me 4 years to grow my hair from just above my shoulders to just past my bra strap. I must have tortoise hair!

Aww, you look so pretty! I really like the shorter hair on you. :)

[smittenbyu]

I just love it too! :) It's been four years since I had this short... so I am wondering what to do with it! hehehe

*gasp*
You look great!
Was it not scary to cut so much off?

[smittenbyu]

oh yes it was!! I was holding on to the chair ever so tight.... and my hands were shaking a bit. But it's hair! It will grow back!

[smittenbyu]

oh and this was not my first time chopping it off.. so I am used to both short and long hair. The first time I chopped it off I bawled! hheeheheh

I love your curls and your smile!

[smittenbyu]

thank you! :)

Wow! Your new haircut looks good on you. I too wish a hairdresser can come and blowdry my hair. I am not someone who can do it myself and my hair does need to be blowdried. You look beautiful.

[smittenbyu]

I know how that feels! You do have beautiful head of hair!!

[amygooglegirl.livejournal.com]

Very nice! You look more grown-up :)

[smittenbyu]

thank you! :) hubby thinks I look younger! ;) I get that though whenever I chop off my hair... some think I look grown up and some think I look younger... I just feel more vibrant!

LOVE your new haircut!! And WOW, your hair was long!! Thanks for posting the photos, Smitha!! :)

[smittenbyu]

I didn't realise how long it actually was till I saw this very "before" picture!! I do miss it although I love my new cut!

It's super cute!

[dakini-bones.livejournal.com]

and still long enough to put up!

Re: It's super cute!

[smittenbyu]

oh that was the only condition I put on the hairstylist when he asked what he can do for me! and no bangs... I can't manage bangs.. and he made a face too picturing me with bangs.. so we were good!

sigh...the before pic...

[fortunatecave.livejournal.com]

i know long hair and curls that too are tough to manage...

but this new look suit you too..

Re: sigh...the before pic...

[smittenbyu]

oh i miss the long hair.. sigh. but yeah i like my new cut too! :)

[inspirethoughts.livejournal.com]

My My that does suit you so well! Your curls are so cute.

What was N's reaction?

[smittenbyu]

he was definitely surprised! It took him quite some time to take it all in!! but he likes it. I don't think my hair was this short when he saw me first!

[inspirethoughts.livejournal.com]

Good to know he liked it. :)

[ssheidi.livejournal.com]

The new hairstyle suits you better :)

[smittenbyu]

thank you :)

[mamtanaidu.livejournal.com]

Pretty nice!
What's the secret behind your lovely tresses?????

[smittenbyu]

lol..thanks... stay away from products as much as possible! no perms, no dyes... I think though it's more to do with genes... ;) and hide the hairdryer and towel dry!
