I just got my hair trimmed five inches and it is such a shock I haven't been able to look in a mirror yet. It was to my waist. I think I needed a change.

Change is good! I will not take long to grow back.

I am sure it looks great and it is healthy for your hair to be trimmed ever so often. 5 in. is quite a change but bet you end up being real happy with it./Lillian

Well mine is on the long side too....about 5-6"" above my waist. Whenever I need a trim my husband is very obliging and he doesn't take off too much! I always wear my hair up in some fashion or other. I do trust my DH though, as I have cut his hair for many, many years.... ;-)

Well, I finally looked and my hairdresser was having a bad day. I was unlevel side to side. Hubby did the trim, so I didn't have to go back into town. He says next time he'll take the $ and cut it for me. (No way.)

I bet it looks nice and you will get used to it and like it a lot in a few... Pictures please!! Suzanne

I hope you donated your hair to the locks of Love, they take hair and make wigs for children with cancer. My granddaughters 13 and 9 years old have donated four times some over 10 inches.

That is quite a lot of hair. Mine is only about 2 inches all over!!! Where is the picture??

been there,done that, and will likely do it again hugs:);)

I think it will be good for your hair, might make it grow faster with new ends? I had long hair for awhile years ago, but it's pretty short now, it's just easier to take care of and I don't get it all tangled up sleeping on it. I bet it's very prett

That IS a lot. I'll bet it looks very pretty.

I'll bet your head feels so light now! I had a bit of a 'major prune' of mine a while back, though it wasn't as long as yours. It will probably thicken up a bit now, like the garden does :)

That sounds rather drastic!

Can't believe I forgot to ask for my hair back to scatter in the garden to keep deer out a few days! It was drastic. It was just starting to look thin and droopy.
