hair-spiration

pregnancy does crazy things to my decision making ability  two years ago i was 6.5 months pregnant with our gemma girl and decided to cut 10 inches off my hair. just like that. made an appt and had it chopped. i probably saw a super beautiful, thin celebrity with a similar cut and decided that i would clearly look just as good with a round face and round belly? darn hormones.

i did my best with my decision for a few months before i made a solemn vow to my head. i will let you grow. and grow and grow. and for the past two years, i have.




{sidenote on inspiration boards} - have you made your self an inspiration board yet? it's like my mini, more direct form of pinterest. i  love pinterest, but i can quickly get overwhelmed and distracted by the amount of inspiration i pin. what i have started to do is to narrow down my top 5 or 6 inspirations from a certain board and make an inspiration board for my own personal reference. helps me from being distracted. i'll print them and keep them in the room i am currently updating or -in this case - where i do my hair.

this is my hair inspiration board. i'm going to keep letting my hair grow and grow. as for the color, i am a natural blonde and will always be. i tried being a brunette once and it was a disaster. i love the ombre look and have done my own ombre. (you can read about it here.) it turns out nice, but one of these days, i would love to have it professionally done.

so there's my hair goal. i can't wait to see how long my hair will be in another two years.

  1. I am growing my hair too... I am 23 weeks pregnant now and there have been a few moments that I have thought about going to chop it off but I haven't cut it much for a few years and it's getting longer than it has been in a long time. I'm going to let it get super long and see how I like it. Your hair looked super cute short but it looks really pretty long too!! :) Love the pictures for your inspiration. I have naturally wavy hair so it gave me some inspiration too :)
