This cut is going to take some getting used to.

Yesterday after getting the cut I went home later and re-did my hair. I had a fundraiser to participate in later that night for the community currency project. I set up my Joke Box! :) That is so fun. You can see the pics in my Fotki album – it looks like a juke box, but instead of playing music when you put money in, I tell you a joke! :) It was really fun and everybody at the event really enjoyed it.

Anyway, when I first re-did my hair, I totally liked it. But then, as the night progressed, it seemed to just get rounder and rounder, and after a while I didn’t like it anymore. I think today I’m going to try just using Confident Coils and not Rockin’ Ringlets, and I’m going to try air drying and not using the hair dryer. Maybe those two changes will elongate the curls a little and keep it from getting quite so round. We’ll see. And maybe this “roundess” problem is all in my head. (ha, or ON it.) I want your honest input here people! :) I mean, if you actually like it, then sure, tell me. But if you agree that it’s pretty darn round, lemmie know your thoughts on what I can do to fix that. It’s been 5 years since I’ve had short hair, so maybe it’s just that I’m more used to the weight of my long hair pulling it down, and I just need to get used to it. I’m hesitant to ask my stylist to re-shape it, because I don’t want it to end up any shorter than it already is. Ah well, at least I know someone will get to use the hair I cut for a wig! :)

Here's a a pic I took from inside the Joke Box of how round it got:

I'll keep updating the blog as I figure this all out. :)
