Before and after

Every so often it just needs to be done. Tessa's long hair can be flowy, shiny and lovely...but it can also be straggly, fuzzy and TANGLY. She was actually the one begging to cut it this time, and I was the one hesitating--to make sure her wishes were sincere.

They were...she never quit talking about it.

So we had it chopped.

Here she is before, looking somber.



And here is the after hair... (excuse the sub par pictures)



It was a shock at first, but now we're all diggin' it. It usually dries cute on its own, and even has a few token flips that add some spunk.

Tessa really cares about her hair these days, and spends time in front of the mirror brushing, styling, experimenting. So lately I don't have to worry/remind about her hair, especially with the new easy do.

Love that.



And I sure love these four...
