Hi all!
Well I got it done! :D This is my first haircut since December 2009. My hair growth timeline is here in my intro thread (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showthread.php?t=84359).
I'm now a brunette. Had to have a bleach bath to get the plum purple tones out of my hair and my hair still has a reddish tint. But I'm pleased with the result. The stylist said it will fade and get lighter with time. I had some long layers put in, and a side fringe, and I think it makes me look much less harsh!
This is just after it was done (colour most accurate in these pics!):

I'd had it blow dried and straightened all over.
Wondered how the fringe would look with my hair up:

Today I used my straightener to flip the fringe a bit, which I think looks much better! Colour looks a bit redder here due to the lighting.

Glad I haven't lost much length!:
