Donation Time

Well, the time finally came for me to donate my hair. I was really enjoying having it long... and kept saying, "next season I'll cut it." But then I kept wrapping it up everyday and was styling it less and less (a sure sign that a hair cut is due). So off to the wonderful Miss. Jessica in downtown LA for  a quirky and fun lil bob cut. I must say that I am still getting used to it... but enjoying the free feeling in my neck (that was alotta hair!!!).

Here's a lil photo shoot I did the morning of the cut (does your hair always look best right before you cut it?? Mine always tries to pull that crap on me- haha)
Vintage dresses available soon in my shop:

and... Here it is!
with a new dress I just thrifted.. might be just right for Valentine's :D 



I kept saying, "shoot, I bet I even weigh less now!!! But... not really. It weighed 6 ounces
which is barrrrely 1/2 a pound :D Never the less, I feel lighter!

Blush brush anyone?

Here's the long braid I'll be sending off soon
to Locks of Love. 

This is what it looked like to me lying on the table... so I had to draw it :D
Looks like a trout, no?

My neighbor just saw me making my video and putting music to it. He said, "why don't you use that song Hair by Galt MacDermot from the 60's!" hahahhahah.... read this-
"Give me a head with hair, 
long beautiful hair.
  Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen.
Give me down to there hair, shoulder lenght or longer
Here baby, there, momma, ev'rywhere, daddy, daddy.
hair, hair, hair, hair, hair Hair, hair, hair.
Flow it, show it,
long as God can grow it, 
my hair."

Happy Thursday.
The weekend's so close I can smell it-
xx,
Nicky

That is an enormous change, are you used to it yet? Do you love it? I think I do! You look so chic and glamourous. And yes to lunch! of course! We'll actually not be staying in LA...but using Long Beach (as a place to stay and head off from) at this point, but intend to see some of LA, and we'll be going both up and down the coastal route.

It must be going around, I just cut a good chunk of hair off too, though your 19 inches puts my 6 or so to shame, it still feels like a big difference though!

You look adorable in your quirky bob, it totally suits you. Also, what a gift your beautiful locks will be to someone in need :)

Such lovely dresses too!

I already told you, but again: looks fab! shows you really can have ANY hair and look cute. The video is so fun too. A Blair cameo? Awesome!

Cute, all of it!
