Back Road BearsWow!!!
I bet you do feel like a new woman! Way to go!
Think of all that shampoo you'll save!
Have you tried felting human hair?
WisconsinYour picture looks great Charlotte, and 14 inches is an amazing amount of hair. It will be much cooler for summer.

Charlotte Des Roches DesignsThanks Daphne...I really do feel like a new woman...hubby who had no clue I was gonna do it today came home from town & said"oh you washed your hair...oh wow...you cut it...!!! Later in the day he said "you look younger"...how awesome is that? as for what I cut off...it's going to Locks of Love...maybe when I do some trims I will try felting some...as hair on a critter maybe...lol

Thanks Lynn, I was posting at the same time you were...yes...much cooler for the summer...especially here in NM!!! Also...the picture I posted was while my hair was still wet from washing it...my natural wave has come back...it feels wonderful...ahhhh
Hugs &
Back Road BearsAfter I posted I wondered if you gave it to an organization like that.
Give that hubby a hug... that was the right thing to say! I'm sure you felt wonderful after that compliment!
It looks great - a new hairstyle can really lift your spirits - especially when you get lovely compliments like you did from your husband.

That's such an awesome thing to do!!! And you look Fabulous Charlotte!! Wow, 14 inches...you must really feel the difference, feel so much lighter. I always let my hair grow out long and then eventually cut it off to a shorter length, only to grow it out again (it grows SO fast)....the weirdest thing is washing it the next day...you want to shampoo the ends that aren't there anymore 
Again, you look great!!

Charlotte Des Roches DesignsDaphne,
Yup...Thanks to Lisa, I didn't know where to send it...but she gave me the link...& I felt like a million bucks after my hubby said that.....I will pass along the extra hug:)
Christine...Thanks & you are right...I really needed a spirit lift...and my hubby sure helped with that too:)
Hugs &
Charlotte Des Roches DesignsThanks Much Chrissi!!! It had gotten so long & my hair is very heavy...& I was starting to have headaches & neck problems...and tonight I feel lighter than air!!!...And if you can cut off a pony tail or braid that is 10 inches long or more...Locks of Love can use it...for those sweet kids..It isn't why I cut my hair...just a perfect result...thanks to my friend Lisa & my Mom.
Hugs &
Past Time BearsWoohoo, Charlotte . . . how lovely!! And how generous to donate to Locks of Love. I bet you do feel lighter!
Charlotte Des Roches DesignsThanks much SueAnn...Lighter in many ways!!!

There's a special place in heaven for people like you, sweet Charlotte. What a lovely gesture. And as a bonus, I tend to agree with your husband -- you do look younger!
Storytime BearsWay to go Charlotte - you look like a new Woman!
Enjoy your new look

Chaska, MinnesotaGreat haircut!! I had long hair once and cut it shoulder lenght. Over a two year period, it kept get shorter and shorter!!! It is still short.
Charlotte Des Roches DesignsThanks Michelle...lol...Sometimes it happens fast...sometimes slowly

Canna Bear PaintGood for you Charlotte, and you look wonderful! I'm going to do a big haircut as well this year, and was planning to send it to Locks of Love. My hairdresser arched an eyebrow and said "you could do several donations and still have long hair", when I asked if I had enough to make a donation.
Maybe I will get my courage up to do this soon, you're certainly an inspiration! I've lost almost 20 pounds since April, so perhaps it's time to justify a bit of a make-over.
:dance:
Hugs,
Kelly
wow! that's a lot of hair! and that's such a great cause. You look good with the new haircut!
Charlotte Des Roches DesignsThanks Kelly, My Mom thinks what I cut off & sent in will make at least 2 wigs...and my hair is still long enough to do a french braid in the back...I still can't quite believe that all I did is to pull my hair up on top of my head into a pony tail...with 2 rubberbands about an inch apart...and just cut between them...and no trimming after...and I still love it today!!!
Also if you have lost that much weight...that is totally awesome...and definitely time for a whole new look...you just wait...it feels wonderful shedding the extra weight of the hair!!!
Hugs &
