Wow BANGS

OK so i finally did it! I have been joking and saying I was going to do this for a long time!!! I want to be edgy and different... But u know the long blond just can't really allow me to do that. I was leaving for work yesterday and made up my mind I was whacking them... (this is why I don't leave any sharp tools at home. I get these ideas and act instant on them. I learned my lesson)

I walked into the living room and told Nick of these bang envisions. He said, "I don't think you should, because it will take forever to grow out and you might not like it anyway. I think you should go pin it up..."

I responded. "I know I just need a change. Something I have never seen on me before. I am to predictable."

He thought for a minute and said, "It's ultimately your choice, I am just trying to be the Devil's advocate."

I kissed him and said thank you. Then went and pinned my hair up.

I came to work still thinking of the bangs I had been dreaming of...
Before I left work, I began discussing the situation with the girls. They were all over it, "you should, you should, you SHOULD. It will always grow. I like to with side bangs..."
I went to town....
I pulled that pin out, and whipped out those new sharp scissors out...
Made the first cut and it was all over.
Although it took me about 3o min to cut silly bangs that on someone else would take me 3 min.
I WAS SCARED!

BUT I DID IT!

I like them I feel different.
Alot of people will think they look like a little kid... but then others who have an eye for style will know other wise...
This is the first picture of them. I look in my phone this morning.


My inspiration. We saw Bride Wars 2 weeks ago. I loved it!

You are so cute, Natalie.
The first suggestion I give to any friend wanting a cheap make-over is to cut bangs. It just makes you FEEL different and I love it. I cut bangs back in 2004 when Ashlee Simpson came out with that adorable hair layered hair with bangs. I've had some form of hangs ever since. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. =)

They look great!

I have pondered bangs... but I have a horrible cow lick and they don't work very well!

ok I love the bangs!! I have decided that I am destined to have bangs for the rest of my life! Everytime I start growing them out I chop them off again! Bangs are just fun! Good choice!

I love the bangs! Glad we pressured you into it, even if it took longer to cut bangs than it takes you to do a full blown haircut and style! HA HA!

You look great. I think you would look good no matter what you do. I bet it will take some getting used to when they have been long for such a long time.

Gorgeous! Ok, I am officially a blog stalker! But I am begging everyone for a new look. And I have now entered psychotic with asking perfect strangers. What do you think about extensions? You can see my current hair style on the youtube video at the beginning of my blog. I will not be surprised if you send the blog police my way.
