To Cut Or Not To Cut....

That is the question. My hair right now is longer than it has ever been. This summer is about the hottest summer we've ever had...and it's only June. Long hair+hot summer=Kristen's sweaty neck. So my dilemma is this: Cut my hair and be cooler this summer, but most likely regret it the second I see the hair falling to the floor? Or wait it out, wear lots of pony tails and continue to grow it. To aid in your vote, I am providing a picture of myself with short hair (about 3 years ago on the 4th of July with Care Bear, 10 months old), and my profile picture which is a couple months old. My hair is slightly longer now. Tell me what you think!

Short? Or long??

I like it long. Can you do something in between like just below shoulder length- long enough to ponytail, short enough to cool off? Whatever you choose will be pretty.

You look beautiful either way--I hate you! ;)

Actually--what is your gut feeling on this? Go with that.

My personal favorite...is the shorter length--it looks stunning! How do you look that beautiful on the beach with a young baby!!!!!!

I envy long beautiful hair. Mine never quite makes it. Would a very loose body-only perm make you feel differently about it?

That short "do" is awfully cute and sassy!

Its a tough one! I personally thought you looked really cute with the short hair! But I may be biased because I like short hair!

It almost always grows back...

I LOVE the short style! You look gorgeous-dahling!

Okay you're beautiful either way...but given the heat factor and the pony-tail everyday it's like choosing between looking hairless anyway, right?

You look seriously cute with short hair. I tried to go short several times, I have finally realized that I am NOT a short hair mommy, but a ponytail mommy.

Your long hair reminds me of my hair about three months ago. I had my hairdresser add side swept bangs and long layers around my face. I needed to shake things up a bit. Maybe you should start with something like that.

You do look super-cute with short hair.

I say cut it, but that's probably because I'm thinking of doing that to my own hair. I get tired of wearing my hair in a ponytail after awhile. We'll need to see a picture if you decide to cut it!

You know my vote! I love the short do on you. It's adorable!

I wish I had the guts to cut mine off sometimes. With that in mind I would say cut it off so I can live vicareoulsy (sp???) through you. :)

But, you look great either way.

they are both great but the short is really funky and perfect for long summer nights!!!

I vote for the short, although the long looks nice too. Short is easy, and it's SO HOT out. :)

What cute pictures of you!! You have the uncanny ablity to do both. I love to cut my hair. But I am trying to grow it out.

I vote for a short bob, like my new haircut. It is soooo much cooler!!!

Gina said...

I like it long too! Just do the pony tail thing... that is what I have been doing since Liam's birth. I hate doing it, but I can't bear to cut it either.

That short style was cute though.

K, I change my vote now that I have read everyone else's comments. Your first comment from Karen said long and I agreed with that. But it's true that hair does grow and you will look more stylish without a pony tail each day. Now I think I may cut mine too.
