hippie hair

For the last 6 months or so, I've been trying to grow out my hair. I've held off cutting it short because Jonathan wants to see it long. He really wants to, for some reason or another. And I kinda want my long hair back, too. It hasn't grown past my collarbone since high school. I've had "mommy hair" for the last five years, even though I've only been a mom for two of them.

Growing hair out is SO hard (especially for someone like me who delights in chopping it all off!), and it takes FOREVER. So, after much debate, discussion with the husband, and some encouraging advice from a friend (who just got hers done too) I decided to take a bold step and get hair extensions!

This is right after I put them in myself and it didn't blend at all, so today I got my normal hair layered and blended with the extensions. I also got them glued in for easier care and convenience, so they are *kinda* permanent until I decide to get them taken out, which will probably be when I'm happy enough with the length of my own hair.

I have to say I am loving these long locks! They're really fun to style and swish around :)
