12/52: new do's

Gosh, it's been a busy week for me! Sorry I haven't blogged much, but I've been wheeling and dealing camera strap covers for the last week and it's sucked up all my time. Once again, I'm a day late with my shot for my 52 week self portrait w/ child project.

Sarah and I went for haircuts today! I am going on a little getaway this weekend, which I'll tell you more about later, and I need to get myself fixed up for it! I am awful about getting my hair cut - maybe every 6 months or so - so it was time. I even had her cut some bangs, which I haven't had in a few years. I lost so much hair after the twins were born, I haven't really had enough in front for bangs until now anyway.

Here's the awful before picture:


Sarah's transformation is the most dramatic. She has decided she wants to grow out her bangs, and I explained to her she'd eventually have to cut the back to get them to match up. After talking to her about it, she was excited to get it cut NOW! Her hair is super thick, and I have a hard time with it anyway, so we just chopped it off. It's really cute and she loves it. Afterwards, she told me that she forgot to have the salon girl put some pink highlights in it. Haha! Maybe next time. *wink, wink*
