I'm having my long hair chopped today, and no one knows lol

[MrsMorgan]

My mum is coming round to have the kids, and she thinks I am just going for a trim and a few layers, but I am having my just past shoulder length hair, cut into a very short bob.

I haven't told anyone because they will talk me out of it. I did mention it to my mum the other week and she said 'ohhh no it is nice how it is'.

I recently had a fringe put in and everyone loved it, including me, but I have to wear my hair up for work now, and I look about 12 then, and I hate it.

So, smarter more grown up bob I think.

Can't wait to see my mum and the dc's reaction later lol.

fab ! have just done similar (mine was just on my shoulders) now a choppy cool layered thing -much better !

OOh, good luck from another long haired one. Before & after pics required!!!

Just checked out 'before' on your profile, can't wait for 'after'

There is a before pic up already

I will take an after pic if it looks nice lol.

Thats what I want Mary, choppy and layered. I have a pic too, so hopefully it will be ok.

Ta for the luck. I am qiute nervous lol. Appointments not until half 4.

I also had a look at your profile pic and I think a bob will really suit you.

Your hair does look lovely as it has but if you want a change, you should have one.

how was it ? ! choppy bob will look ace on you I bet

after?

Right, it's done. I am not sure lol. I liked it until I took a pic, and now I am unsure.

Will upload the pic now.

Ds very seriously said to me 'will i get to like it evetually' LOL.

He said he does though now.

I like it! Suits you very much, good for you having a change, besides it will grow back soon.

Ooooh, I like it very much! You will be unsure because it is such a difference. Give it a few days of washing and styling yourself and you will feel more confident about it.

I really like it.

looks nice! your son is very sweet! does he like it?

my mate once had her really long hair cut off and her son wouldn't talk to her for ages

Like it very much. I might brush the fringe straighter down a bit more like your before photo but really like it. Whenever I change my hair (which I do quite often - easier than losing weight in my case!), I wear more make up than normal for the first few days to sort of balance it out.

Lol you all talk so much sense.

I got a new brighter lipstick on my way home to balance it out lol.

My ds looked horrifed when he saw it, and said he prefers it long, but that he does like it lol.

Dd2 ran away

I think i'd prefer it more poofed up iykwim.

Hopefully once I have faffed with it myself it will look better.

I am having a bit of a wobble I think. I have a night out in two weeks too.

The length is great. The fringe was better before.

MrsMorgan your new hair looks fab

your hair really suits you.it looks great.

I like it a lot, really suits you.

I like. Much more 'grown up'. I would play about with the fringe after washing

The problem with my fringe, is that it is alot thicker one side than the other, and has a natural parting, so I am constantly brushing it over to get a full fringe.

Will try it with a fuller fringe tomorrow though just to see what it's like.

Bit worried i have made a mistake now

Thank's for the comments though

Def not a mistake!

I NEVER like my hair when it is just done.
Also your hair needs to 'settle' in, it has just had a traumatic experience after all
I am sure in a couple of weeks, you will catch sight of yourself and think WOW! :)

Lol @ traumatic experiance

The hairdresser said she thought it looked fab, and made me look five yrs older. Is that good lol ??

Ahh well it's done now anyway.
