Sunday is officially one year since THE BIG CHOP! Last fall I cut off just over a foot of hair and donated it to a great organization. I had been planning it for a while, but I wasn't in a good place emotionally when I did it, so I kind of had a meltdown over the loss of my waist length hair. I've not gotten any trims, except a small attempt to blend some choppy layers about two weeks after the chop, since then. I'll do a full shoot this weekend to compare, but here is a little sneak peak using a shot I took to send to my best friend a week or so ago. I stopped measuring and photographing about 7 months in, but I measured when I took this picture and my hair has grown between 9 and 9.5 inches. I really would like to get the layers re-trimmed (it would look so much better at this point), but I'm still a little chicken to do it even after a year.

Here is where I started, just for reference.

I can't wait to straighten it and take the full series of pics this weekend!
