So, yay or nay on this haircut?

Cutie pie if I've ever seen one. She looks so cute. I am a hairstylist and have to say I don't think the stylist was listening to what you wanted though. Even though she looks so cute. Long layers means the longest hair will remain long and layers are place in the hair. It looks like she took off some length and removed lenth from in front of her ears in an angle. Either way she looks realy sweet.

I think it looks really cute :)

And very nice for summer, I wish I could cut my hair that short just for the summer then have instantly long hair for the winter.. so I keep a happy medium year round.

Cute, cute, cute!! I don't see any tears in the after pic, so I'm guessing she's ok with the new do. And hair doesn't have to be long to be feminine!! I love short hair. I even have some myself!!

I agree, its cute. My daughter had a cow when we first cut her hair too. I was to the middle of her back and then cut to her jaw line. But now, she loves it short, although I like it longer, she's tomboyish anyway. Tell her its cool and the next thing she will notice is a lot of her friends getting their hair cut too. Also, tell her its hair, it will grow back...lol. They think the world is coming to an end on something that seems aweful for a couple months and then notice the world is growing hair like she is. Its funny how they act. I have two girls, very dramatic, its always a theatricle experience around here.

Very cute!

I would miss the longer hair in the summer. Sounds odd, eh? But true. I've had very long hair in the summer (to my waist), and very short hair (off the neck). The long hair was much, much easier. It could just be put up in a french twist or messy bun or even a french braid. Wake up, comb, up, and go. The short hair had to be washed and styled. I have curly hair and my curls always go messy overnight.

I think it looks adorable.

That being said, I really feel her pain. I myself was crying (and I'm 37 years old!!!) over my most recent hair cut a few weeks ago. Literally crying and throwing a temper tantrum and calling all my friends and saying I should wear a burka, etc.

The thing that helped me the most, is hair accessories. My hair actually goes from looking HORRIBLE (I'm talking 1980's nun) to adorable, with the addition of a headband.

So if your daughter still feels bad about her haircut, get her some rhinestone hair clips, headbands, barettes with flowers on them, etc. and she will soon be loving her hair.

But it does look really cute though.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
