Another year in the life of hair


*Post Edit*
My Aunt Kathy made a good observation.  My short side was always on my right side. Some pictures were taken with my mac photo booth application which, for some odd reason, always mirror images the pictures. Other pictures are taken with a normal  camera.  That is why my hair looks like it flip flops which side is short and which side is long.

I did this post a while ago and thought it would be fun to recap another year of my hairstylings.  It's been another crazy year of ups and downs.


In september of last year I decided to CHOP my hair off.  Worse yet, I decided to only CHOP one side off.  I had always wanted to try an a-symmetrical hair cut, and I went for it.

 By December I was well on my way to going blonde.  I hadn't been blonde since I was way little, so wanted to try it out.

 I wanted to start growing out my short side.  If you've ever had your hair cut above your ear, you know it is hard to grow it out.  I avoided the mullet, and also the weird ear phase by doing these hair styles very often! 




 I would wear a stretchy headband and tuck my hair behind it.  I would either wear my bangs forward or up and back.  Sometimes bobby pins were needed but it was relatively painless to grow it out.


  In March I was VERY Blonde.  I decided to cut my longer side a little shorter so I wasn't SO a-symmetrical.






 In June I had grown the right side out a lot!


By August  I was sick of the blonde, mainly because it was WHITE blonde!  So I went red. And started growing out my bangs.

I had to fill my hair with orange before I could go completely red



From there I just kept growing and decided to go brown.  Something that isn't so high maintenance. You can see that my hair is almost EVEN! 














These are just a little bonus treat for you.  We call it "newscaster hair" in my house.










my latest hair cut brought my hair to the same length on the sides.  I also brought my bangs back.

This is proof that my hair has grown.  Peter feels like it never grows.
We'll see what happens next year

  1. That was great. And it is so amazing to me the changes. No surprise coming from a person who either has short hair or long hair or somewhere in between - always blonde. Nothing interesting.

    Very cool. Was interesting to hear what you did when you decided to grow out the short side. But hey - how is it that that hair is long on one side in one picture and then the very next picture that hair is long on the other side?
