to cut or not to cut...

So, my standard practice is to get my hair cut every two years. I get it cut fairly short - above the shoulders and below the ears, and then let it grow for two years, after which i donate it all to locks of love (getting the free hair cut for donating ;-) I'm ambivalent myself - i like it both short and long. My hubby says he likes it both short and long.(although he loves it long when i actually take time to 'DO' my hair) When it's this length though, I rarely go through the effort of wearing it down and making it look nice; most of the time i just put it up in a clip.

My loving hubby was still out of town with the kids on sunday, so i actually took time to curl the ends and wear it down for church. I had my daughter take a pic of me when they got home(a little fuzzy, but not bad for a 6-yr old),... and now i'm polling,... do i cut, or not? what do YOU think?

I'm almost thinking any longer than this is just over-kill.

Or maybe i'll keep the length and wear it down for winter, then chop it all off in the spring.

I used to be indecisive, now i'm just not sure ;-)

You have beautiful hair!!!!!!!! You have to consider what's easiest for you to take care of and have it still look good. If no one ever see's your pretty long hair, and it's more trouble to fix, then I say cut it. I remember last time you got your hair cut, it looked really cute. So, it's just a matter of preference!

It's gorgeous both ways! What a big help I am. I usually get the bug to chop off all my hair in about January or February... we'll see if I make it that far this year!
