Do you mean you keep running hands through it and then it's not there?

Bit cold atm for short hair surely

But easier tho. DH not keen on my hair as short as I would like it

cOUPLE OF DAYS

DecorHate · 16/01/2010 18:14

Yeah a couple of days at the most

bunnymother · 16/01/2010 18:15

I think give it a few days. And enjoy the change and the feeling of "lightness" and possibly even bouncier hair. Bet it's lovely, just so much of a change to be a bit of a shock, too.

What style is it? Forgot to ring the flipping hairdresser again today.

BoysAreLikeDogs · 16/01/2010 18:25

how short we talking?

traceybath · 16/01/2010 18:29

How short?

I've got long hair and am going for a choppy bob soon.

It'll feel odd when you wash your hair and there's a lot less of it.

ahundredtimes · 16/01/2010 18:33

yes how short. Is it a crew cut - that'll take, ooh about NEVER to get over or used to

I cut my fringe too short once, I spent 2 weeks walking around looking surprise as I tried to lessen the gap between eyebrows and hair.

piratecat · 16/01/2010 18:55

it'll settle into itself, i had mine chopped from shoulderish, to danni minogueish length and i look nearer 35 than 40 now, which was the plan.

Havnet had this short for bout 10 yrs, and my god its so nice to have a NECK!!

Ronaldinhio · 16/01/2010 18:56

mmm, you may need to be a bit fussier about neck cleaning also

piratecat · 16/01/2010 18:56
