Crazier still.
Me.
Hairdresser phobic me.
What is it with all those mirrors, anyway?
Why are there so many of the damn things?
While we are on the subject, why do hairdressers ask what type of cut we want? I never went to haircutting school. I don’t know anything about layers or razoring or anything much more than ‘a number two on the sides with a number four on top, ‘cos it’s Winter’.
That is like me asking the hairdresser which optimal position she has decided on for the birth of her first child and had she considered tearing or episiotomy with that.
When it comes to hair I am uneducated.
All I know is that the short cut got tired, I grew it out, to a point where it just looked like someone had popped a mop on my noggin’ and called it a ‘do’.
That and in less than twenty four hours, I am going to be the mother of two twelve year olds and I think that calls for something a bit more grown - uppish than the mess that was my hair.
What do you think?
So, I got it cut, with a side fringe (I’ve never had a side fringe, heck, I’ve never had a fringe, period) and layers.
It’s not in my face.
It looks like someone has actually done something with it, no longer the caveman, lost cause look.
(Now if I could just do something with my bushman eyebrows).
So, here is a picture.
It’s not a great photo because I didn’t want to look like a total git and ask one of the kids to snap off a few for the blog but you can see, it has shape, right, and I look like I could have 12 year olds, yes?
No, don’t look at the dark circles.
Anyway, those are marks of babies and toddlers and maybe teenagers who don’t come home until after midnight. If I had just 12 year olds, my panda eyes would not be so bad.
I’m sure of it.
Don’t look at the stupid grin.
I felt stupid, okay.
I just want your opinion… is it an okay haircut?
It looks amazing and I promise, I wasn’t looking at any of the stuff you didn’t want me to.
I was too busy looking at that great fringe and your lovely airy windows.
You look beautiful - and far too young to be the mother of 12-year-olds!
You look lovely
- I’d say mid-20’s from that! Easy! (says me who got crows feet at 18)
Gee, at first glance I thought the photo was Immy or Maddy, then I started reading…gosh you look great. It’s a nice cut, not too short, so your ears won’t freeze off on cold mornings, and nicely shaped. I’d say leave the eyebrows alone. They look okay to me. Way back in my early thirties someone convinced me that plucking my eyebrows would “open up” my face, so I plucked away, but after about 6 months I decided I didn’t like looking permanently surprised and stopped plucking. Waited for the eyebrows to grow back. Still waiting…….
I’m hairdresser phobic too.
Love the haircut. You look fantastic!
Good grief!
You look about 12 yourself! I had no idea you were so young. By which I mean I didn’t think you were old or anything…
OMG now it all just sounds SO bad
Anyways, LOVE the haircut!
Very chic, Tiff. Very different from your usual, but very flattering & oh so YOU. It certainly makes you look young & very moderne-just right for a mum of 12 year olds. Just lovely!
I think it looks fabulous!!! It’s sort of similar in style to mine only shorter and straighter. So not really similar to mine at all. LOL. But looks great. Unlike mine which could really do with a cut. The dilemma - cut my fringe (which is to the side like yours) so it doesn’t keep driving me crazy or keep it longer so I can pull it out of my face for netball….
Great haircut. Nice to see what you look like. What an amazing journey to parenthood you’ve had. Found you through xbox4nappyrash site.
It’s a GREAT picture! Look how CUTE you are!!!
It looks awesome, Tiff! It looks natural, yet has nice shape in it.
Looks like a good cut to me!
Ya look bloody gorgeous Tiff! Your girls are so like you
Love the haircut… I should probably get mine done again soonish… oh to be out of the house with no toddlers… *sigh*
Dave has certainly done well for himself….
You look fantastic! I think I need more babies around here, because my dear, it really suits you! Lovely hair, lovely face, all just lovely.
WOW! You look AMAZING Tiff! That is a GREAT haircut and you look fantastic! Enjoy celebrating Immy and Maddy’s birthday, and enjoy the new you!!
The question now is… what does Dave think??? *grin*
He didn’t even notice. Sadly.
I hear the doghouse is mighty cold in the thick of Winter, LOL
You look hot Tiff and soo not old enough to be the mum of anyone over 5!
Dave, what is with you boy..how could you not notice your girl looking so great. You in trooouble!!
You look teh awesome. Which is a compliment of the highest order you know…
I think it frames your face perfectly! Very cute!
Your hair looks great. I am a funky hair girl and I do all these weird razor cut to my hair. Glad you went with something simple!
Gorgeous ! I can’t wait to see it.
Happy birthday for tomorrow and Happy Birthday to Immy and Happy birthday to Maddy -wow I can’t believe you are the mother of 12 yr olds either.
B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L
I like it a lot. And did you know that you are really, really pretty when you smile?
OMG! You look GORGEOUS!!!!!
Well done!
Very nice cut, my dear. I like it a lot. You look wonderful! Mother of 12-year olds? Nah, not possible, you’re way too cool looking!
I’m jealous, I can’t have short hair. Being 6 feet with man shoulders (and gigantic feet, sssshhhhhh), when I did have short hair, I was mistaken for a man all the time. Also, since I grew up in Boystown, I have been mistaken for a cross-dresser. Talk about humiliating!
So, the eyebrow thing must be genetic, I got ‘em too. I confess to plucking, its like an obsession with me sometimes. Eyebrows and those horrible billy goat chin hairs. Ah, the benefits of motherhood.
Like River, I thought at first that it was a photo of the girls - you look way too young to have 12 year olds.
The haircut looks gorgeous. Hope it feels at great as it looks
It looks awesome Tiff!! You look really good in that cut!! Yay for good haircuts!! I, like you, am terrified of the hairdresser so I’m double-y happy for you!!
Nice haircut! Looks fun and manageable…
I recently got mine cut, and I’m as phobic as you about it…
I agree with everyone else - its a very flattering cut and you look way too young to have 12 year olds! Gorgeous.
It looks lovely. Promise!! And I agree with everyone else, you look way too young to have 12yos!
It’s my turn next week!
It must be hair style changing season in blogland because I’ve read so many blogs lately with hair style changes
Thanks guys!
Way to make a girl feel wild and fancy free!
Ah, look at you, you stunner! Fab haircut Tiff — pair it with that winsome smile of yours and WOW!
So so stunning! you are just gorgeous!
