Pregnant after a Loss

Cut it short or not?

My sister is coming up tonight to cut my hair and give me some highlights. 

Here's the before:

I'm tired of it just hanging there.  It is long enough to pull back, but I don't like pulling it back all the time.  I had layers before, but I've been letting them grow out - and the shortest layer now is all dead and has split ends that I hate.  So I need to at least cut away the really dead stuff.

Am I going to regret chopping it up to my chin or a bit shorter?

    lmao!  Actually, I consider the way I have it now to be the "mommy" cut.  I want something more stylish and cute and yes, easier to style (I have to flat iron the ends to keep them from flipping).

  • I cut mine really short and I love it.  I will say I do have to style it every day (no more pony tails), but it takes less than five minutes to blow dry and style.

    I'm actually considering them!!  I was talking with my sis yesterday about whether to try them or not...

  • It grows back, that's all I'm gonna say. Wink

  • I'm gonna cut it.  I usually like my hair longer for the summer so I can put it up in a poney, but that's because I played softball and needed it out of my face.  I can't play softball, so I'm gonna go short.  And like xles said, it will grow back.

  • Side swept bangs would be adorable and this haircut is a wash'n'wear for girls with wavy/straight hair and super easy to fix up for somethin fancier.

    This! I just recently cut off almost a foot of hair (long hair that grew like crazy during 1st and 2nd tri), and was tempted to go for a chin-length bob, but left it at my shoulders. I'm glad I didn't go for the mom cut, because "your face will most likely swell up and then you will be a bobble head." This is quoting the women with new babies in my life. Something to think about. My face is getting puffier, so I'm glad I heeded their advice!

  • I like the angled bob too. And, being pregnant & summertime, your hair will grow quickly anyway if you don't like it.

  • I say cut it but then again I am a fan of short hair.  I've always had shorter hair and am now letting it grow out for a while just to see if I like it.  It is driving me crazy though.
