Cut, Cut, Cut… My New Hairdo!

After quite a few years where I have been in kind of a competition with myself to see, how long my hair could actually get, before I felt like it was enough, I reached the point of total irritation right before Christmas - So I knew it was time to get quite a change hair-wise.

I have been thinking about it for the past year actually, but never really felt, that I was at the "point of no return".

When I decided to let my hair grow, I also promised myself not let my "I need a change"-feelings result in my hair suffering with drastic haircuts and colour change (as I used to, when I was younger).

So the last few years, I have only done the regular maintenance cut and some highlights once in a while.

But as I mentioned, I reach the point, where I just felt, I had had enough.

I felt it was just hanging there and looking a bit "blah".

I follow both Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port on Instagram and especially, when I saw Whitney Port's new do, I felt it tingle.

The length of hers was exactly, what I wanted.

When I made the final decision, I also researched a bit online and found Kate Mara - I really liked that hers was shorter in the back.

So my hairdresser (who I love BTW) and I decided on a collarbone length blunt and sharp cut, that is a bit shorter in the back.

It was quite a change, and I really needed to get use to it and experiment a bit with the styling.

But in my experimentation I realised, that I got exactly, what I wanted - a very versatile haircut.

I feel, I have so many options in the styling, but still without it being to high-maintenance.

And washing and drying it is an absolute dream - so quick and easy.

Finally there are no big knots and tangles any more - Hallelujah! 

So I love it, and don't regret it at all.

I know, that a lot of my family and friends prefer me with the longer hair, but personally, I don't feel, that the longer hair really suits my personality and style - and in the end, I'm the only one how really needs to love it.
