So I finally did it! Something I’ve been debating back and forth about for literally months-chopping my hair off. Not just my usual inch or two, but a solid 7 inches of my brown locks.

To some people a haircut is simply just a haircut and to others, like myself, their hair is their pride and joy..therefore, I better be walking out of the salon with a smile on my face..or else. With that being said it’s pretty understandable as to why it took me so long to finally decide to go through with it. I decided last week it was time to grow a pair and finally go through with it, after all I trusted my hair stylist and I was in need of some sort of change.

I haven’t had my hair this length in probably 5 or 6 years so its been fun and exciting to try out different styles. And its a plus that a lot of celebrities have done the same this past year so I find a lot of inspiration through re-creating their styles. My fav so far has been the wavy, tousled look and I love that I get so much more volume now.

In all honesty I wish I had the guts to go even shorter, I love the look of a crop cut and how it makes your facial features pop. I don’t know if I’m ready for all that though, so for now I’m content with my “lob”. Are there and beauty/fashion trends you’ve wanted to try? Or have already?

Zoe Saldana and Jessica Alba- two of the gorgeous celebs that inspired me to finally make the cut.
