Holy Cow, it's FRIDAY!!! Bout' time!!!

Hair turned out so cute! All my gymnasts of course notice the trim-a-roo right away and Darin did not.. he's excused, he's still a beginner husband.

Sorry I waited a day to post the hair pics. I wanted to show you the straight and curly version of the do. For those of you that don't know, my goal is to grow the ol' mane out for locks of love. I thought that I only needed 10 inches for the chop but a couple of day's ago my stylist/old roomie/friend said that the pony needs to be 10 inches and there's about another inch in the hairtie area! WHAT? Did you forget to tell me that I needed another inch? That's like 3-4 months of growth!!! Yes, I know normal people's hair grows about 1/2 an inch a month but my hair is totally not normal. And when I get the big chop, I can't go above like mid neck length.. I seriously look like a Q-tip when it's curly. Human q-Tip is no good.

So, here's the straight pics...

BACK VIEW

FRONT VIEW and me being very tarded. Stylist/old roomie/friend Erin was making fun of me for bloggin about my hair cut so I had to egg her on a tad. And by the way, if I ever own a hair salon (it's always been at the back of my mind to go to cosmo school and own a salon) my salon is totally going to look like her place. It's SO chic!

And here are my natural curly pics...



Kinda different look, eh? Gotta love curls. They can make your hair look about 4 inches shorter. =) Oh, and I totally took this pic of myself... can you tell? Do you ever do the whole extended arm, smile and snap a pic of yourself? I always feel so strange doing it.. like I love myself too much or something.

Got tagged by the evah so cute, SO GIVING, Kat! Read her story on her blog.. she's fostering 3 little boys right now and I am SO proud of her!

"GET PUBBLISHED IN A BLASTED SCRAPBOOKING MAGAZINE!"
This cracked me up... I think it would have to be on my list too!!! but it'll happen! Love your hair trim! Would you believe I have curly hair like you too! but i NEVER do it curly...personal preference i guess, cuz on you the curls look fabulous!!! So awesome that you are growin' out to donate to locks of love, my best friend just did that but she did not wait as long as you..and now has VERY short short hair!
Hope you get some hubby time this weekend!

Just Me said...

oh i love your hair!!!

Elizabeth said...

gosh, your hair is soooo long.have you not cut it EVA since i last saw you???
I just chopped 6 in. off.. my stylist was surprised at how curly my hair was. ( i was not, as this is my little secret). For the last week, i have been alternating curling it up (i had to get mousse!!) or flipping it out!
very fun to be versatile.
I too am hoping to go on a mission trip.. A's parents just went on one to UGANDA.. very very uncivilized..but amzing how filled with JOY all people are!
something is happening there.. i can't wait to be a part of that same something.
kiss work gbye and Dman Hello.

ok I am completely jealous that your hair can shrink or grow like 4 inches in a matter of the time it takes to straighten your hair. Which i have heard takes forever...but i wouldn't know...mine has lacked curl or the ability to since birth. I understand the lack of hubby time. It is mine's busy season. Sucks but i have to be supportive, it is my job. Plus he brings home the money!!!!!

The visual of a q-tip has me laughing hysterically.

Wendy said...

10 inches is a whole lot when you really think about it. Atleast it is if you want any hair left. I'm letting mine get super duper long this time before I cut it. It's getting grey in it though! I'm only 26! My sisters is worse though and she is 22(he he). Anyway, mine will probably be donated to some bald little old lady now instead of some cute little girl!
Oh-mine is curly/straight too. Don't you wish you had someone to come straighten and style it every morning?

Jill H said...

you are just so darn cute Darcy! love the cut, & of course i'm drooling over your curls cause my hair is STICK straight.

mission trip & locks for love? you totally ROCK in my book!

and i'm still lol picturing the 'human q-tip' look =)

Anonymous said...

you have the most beautiful hair!!!
good for you to give it to locks of love!
AWESOME!

Nichole Duenke said...

sooo very cute darcy!! & yey for friday!

Valerie said...

Lovin' the hair!! It looks so good!! I'm so glad it's Friday too!! I'm going to Hawaii soon too, can't wait!!

Kat said...

yay! fun stuff!
love your hair- beautimus : ) i love that your'e going to donate to locks of love. i totally should have done that too when i grew my hair out for my wedding! shuckleberries. maybe i'll start doing it now and then chop it after i have my first baby : )
love all your answers- i'm gonna guess you don't have 9 kids in your family???

Felicia said...

My guess is that you never were 160 lbs.

I know what you mean about the Q-tip head. My hair is curly and really thick so I would never cut it shorter than my shoulders.
My hair is really long right now. I should probably donate my hair.
=)

Have a great weekend!

Unknown said...

I'm gonna have to say you are NOT one of 9 kids...I already know this one!!

Your hair looks really cute, you can definitely see the layers in the straight do!! You are the best-est self portrait taker EVER! One can tell from the photos that Salon is really cute! Thanks for tagging me.
