Mama's New Do...

Mama's hair had gotten quite long... it was beginning to feel oppressive.  Taking a lot of time to dry in the morning was one of the key reasons Mama needed a change.  Mama inherited an issue from her Mama - if Mama doesn't wash AND dry her hair each day, she's not a happy Mama... so the length had to go!  Mama had always wanted to experiment with a asymmetrical cut, but never had the guts.  She's always been emotionally attached to her hair.  But for some reason, she's not anymore!  So, here's how it all went down...

Now you see it...


Now you don't!  It wasn't really that much of a shock, more of a relief actually.  Yay!  Mama thought the initial cut would be much shorter, so she was actually a little disappointed to see so much left, but Mei-Ling, her stylist, needed something to work with!


Here's what all that hair looks like before it goes off for donation... not much...


Here's the first look, while still in the cape.  Mama told Mei-Ling, after she removed the cape, that the final reveal should always be AFTER cape removal.  Who wears a cape up to the neck anyway?


Here's a look at the back...


And the finished product in plain clothes...


Overall, Mama is pleased.  She would have been fine with something a little shorter... and this cut DEFINITELY takes more time to style well, but for so many other reasons this style is rockin' Mama's world!
