The Pony Tail Syndrome

You know what I'm talking about. We've all had it. I've had it a little too long. It's called "the Pony Tail Syndrome".

It's our safe place. Men love long hair right? Long hair is a virtue. It's a symbol of God's love for us women, isn't it? Our hair grows just like God's love. Let's hope not.

My safe place is gone. Bye-bye. I dropped my chunks of love like a bad habit. I'm really excited to show all of you. Mary Cook rocks my socks.

Here is why I decided to cut my hair:

My sister Becky got her hair chopped and it looks amazing. She couldn't decide how to cut it so she let the salon do it themselves and it ended up looking great. I was getting near leaving the house to go to Mary's and my conversation went like this with my husband:

C: Did you see Becky's picture of her hair that she emailed you?
B: Yes, I did. Did you, well I guess you did...what do you think of it?
C: I really like it.
B: Me too. It's pretty cute.
C: You'd look hot with your hair like that.
B: So, you think Becky's hot?
C: Beth, the hair looked good on her.
B: Honey, I'm kidding.
C: So, are you going to cut your hair like that?
B: I think so.

I kid of had to, huh??!!!

I walked in from getting my hair cut and Chad smiled really big and said "look at you!". He's never, EVER done that about any hair cut or style I've had.

Bye bye horse mane, hello sassiness.

It feels good, doesn't it. When I got all my hair cut off, I felt liberated!!!! I didn't see you in church . . . can you post a picture so we can oooh and aaah? Otherwise, I'll hunt you down in church some other time.

It looked good, but I don't remember how long it was, just pretty. Either way, you win. How many inches did you have cut off?

Yes, I'll get a picture. You know, I guess it's not that dramatic of a change and you know what else? I can still put it in a pony tail. HA! It is a big change for me, though. Thank you, Zo, for that comment!

I had the pony tail syndrome for 4 years. Everyday, minus the day I was a bridesmaid in my aunts wedding and maybe a few, rare, here and there days, my hair was up in a pony tail. It all started when Joel was born. My hair was up so that it wouldn't be pulled out, but then I saw how convenient it was, then I decided to grow it out for locks of love. I thought it'd never look good short and down, but I'm very pleased with how it looks now.

Can't wait to see your new do.
