Express Yourself

Since getting married, moving to Scotland, and having a bunch of new beginnings I figured why not change EVERYTHING all at once! For the past two/three years of my life I have been growing my hair out for the wedding. I think I went a bit overboard and let it get too long. Here is a picture of what it was like before the wedding.

Hair Before

I was sick of finding my hair all over the place and having to deal with it everyday so I sought out inspiration on the internet and stumbled upon a gem! A lovely blog that a girl named Becki created called Whippycake. She is ADORABLE and creates the best hair accessories. I have yet to purchase any, but plan on doing so in the very near future. Here is Becki's lovely hair

Becki's Hair

After watching a few of her tutorials on styling pixie cuts I decided to bite the bullet and just go for it. Everything else in my life had gone through such a huge change so why not my hair! Since I just moved to Dundee I did not know of any good hair stylists, but luckily there happened to be one just down the street from me called McIntyres which has an exceptional reputation. After getting the a okay from my husband (he was quite keen for me to go short) I made the appointment and here is the final result.

Hair After


Although I was terrified I am now in love with my new hair! So what I learned was don't be afraid to take chances. Sometimes it can be an epic failure, but I would never have known if I didn't try! Plus hair always grows back :)

    1. haha thanks! I was just looking at your hair and I love it like that!! I think it looks great on you!! I made it with a picture editing thing. Took me ages of surfing around and deciding what I liked the most. But if you had an image in mind I could mess around with it and give you some options?! Like give me a overall name that you want for the blog and an image!! Only if you want. If not here is the photo editing site I used...FotoFlexer
      miss you xx
