Oh Uh…

10.08.2009 by Girl on Fire // 47 Comments

I think I just messed up.  I used to have super short hair and dying it was easy!  Well, my hair has gotten quite long.  I haven’t died it in awhile, last time was in May and it was professionally done.  So, here I am dying my hair today and I had no clue how long my hair had gotten.  I don’t think I had enough dye!  I should have used 2 applications.  It’s probably going to be all jacked up and I get to go out tonight.  I have 35 min before I can wash it out.  Oh well…atleast it’s a punk rock show…

So if you see me tonight and I have huge uncolored patches in my hair, bite your tongue and leave me alone.  Better yet, buy me a beer and tell me how rad I am!

Stuff like this makes me want to hack it all off again.  So here is a photo short and a photo long….should I keep it or cut it?

      Yea, it DID take a long time for me to commit to growing it. I grew it from being shaved, that is HARD!

    I think you’ll be fine, punk rockers aren’t known for conventional hair. Do you have time to go get some more dye? I like your hair both ways, but change is fun!

    I say keep it , it is only another box of color to fix it up! Instead of months growing it back! I love the color too.

    I like it long. But I’m partial to long hair myself. I usually grow it out, keep it long for a few years, and then chop it off. Then I spend the next 2 years trying to get it back to the length it was before I chopped it off! Then the cycle repeats itself. I wish I could just go from short to long and skip the inbetween stage all together.

    Well since my hair is even shorter than yours in that picture – I say short. But, I ALWAYS say short. WHY? Cause when it’s long & in your way – most of us pull it back – so it looks short anyway.

    Don’t listen to me though, I have NO IDEA what I’m talking about.

    SHORT. You have awesome bone structure the short hair really shows it off. Besides, long hair tends to look average, even with Betty Page bangs and you’re NOT SO AVERAGE! Be true to the punk inside. Hack it!

      You want to know the biggest thing I hate about it being long? My hair is EVERYWHERE. It’s on the floor, in the sink, the tub, even Emma’s diapers end up with my hair in them! I feel like we are all breathing in my hair and are all going to cough up ginormous hairballs!
