why did you all cut your hair after your wedding? I have no plans on chopping off all my hair after I'm married. isn't it a very old fashioned thing to do that? I still want to feel "young and hot" even after I'm a wife!I think that hair is something that one is able to express themselves through...I had long hair for over 10 years..than I decided that life is too short not to experiment with hair...I tend to get bored with my hair....I had it pixie short for quite awhile and had made a decision to grow it long..than my DH proposed and I decided to keep growing it and it was very hard not to put highlights in my hair or change up the length...I can't speak on behalf of any of the ladies..but I really do think they all look fantastic with their new do's....I chopped off all mine because I wanted a change as I had it the same way for almost 2 years...sometimes I do miss putting it in a ponytail..but hair is only hair and I think many women actually look so much better with a shorter style...it brightens up their faces...so I do not think this is an old fashioned thing to do but having shorter hair does not mean you aren't "young and hot"....it means you are courageous enough to not go with the norm of what people percieve as "sexy"...I have gotten many compliments on my shorter hair and most have said they prefer me with shorter hair...I am fortunate enough to have enough confidence in myself to see through the length of one's hair...again this is only my opinion..and whether one has short, medium...long or whatever if it is a style that they like then I say go for it...
So happy to be married to my best friend....

| Thanks Ladies!! i thought that comment was different... but after i went to work i wondered if i had just let the pms get the better of me... glad to see that i was not just being "sensitive". Thanks to you all for the compliments again. Love being in the hot sexy short hair club... i think we look wonderful.. and i love how fast it is to style. I got ready for work this morning and for the first time that i can recall i only had to brush my hair... that was it!!! i am thrilled! and chickypoo you look wonderful!! love that pic of you...

| I plan on only getting my hair trimmed over the next 2 years (I'll keep my high/lowlights though) so that it'll be really LONG for my wedding. I want either a half updo with it pulled to one side but curly and down (hard to explain) or a fancy (but sheek) updo. Right now it's @ my shoulders but after the wedding I'm sure I'll cut it off to around my current length.

What a glorious day it was when I chopped all that hair off. Here is a before and after shot! Before the wedding (rehearsal dinner):  Wedding Day:  Post-Wedding CHOP:  And I plan on chopping it again once my baby is born... It's exactly the post-wedding haircut I want to do! I have super-curly hair too and I've been having a hard time figuring out a shorter hairstyle for after the wedding... Do you mind if I take your pic to my hairdresser?
haha go for it! my curls are tight at the front and looser at the back, so its shorter in the back and longer in the front, though you cannot tell in this picture.

I still feel "young and hot" and my hair is still pretty short. I cut my hair after my wedding because I wanted something fresh and new. My hair was pretty damaged and I wanted a change. My husband still thinks I'm hot- in fact he introduces me as his "hot wife". In fact it was something I did so that I wouldn't get lazy. With my crazy curls, getting stuck in the pony-tail rut is very easy. I chopped it off so I'd have to do it every day. I'm going to chop it again after my baby is born. I'll still be "young and hot" and a MOMMY to boot.

No offence evan but.....that has to be THE most archaic comment i've ever hear!!! I dont mean to be condescending but...How old are you???? because any woman knows that hair has NOTHING to with being sexy looking...as many people have commented about the celebrities with short hair that look trendy and amazing or those women who have long stringy hair who SHOULD cut it...or even our gorgeous examples here..i actually have hair past my armpits right now and its driving me crazy...the point of people growing their hair is so they can maybe do a little more with it on their wedding day.....so after the wedding...people who normally wouldn't grow their hair that long...give it a good healthy chop...which is what i fully intend to do!!!

| it just seemed to me that everyone cutting their hair off after marriage was like some sort of ritual, since SO many do it, like you're a different person after you're married or some nonsense and need a new look. If I want to change the way I look I will at any time, I haven't made any plans for directly after the wedding,like I have to look a certain way for it, then I can go back to being "me" or like I'm waiting for something to make a change I would enjoy. if I had an idea of a way to make myself look better, I would do it now, not wait. Which is why I don't understand the whole "post wedding" hair concept, or the "before & after" thread, like getting married changes you that much? lol
