Giving Locks of my Love

I'm lagging it like crazy.. Let's get back into the groove with this thing!

So... I finally cut my hair and donated it. Which has ALWAYS been a goal of mine to do. I actually would think that it's one of the things on my bucket list. I WILL MAKE A BUCKET LIST JUST SO I CAN ADD THIS ONE THING AND CHECK IT OFF! hahah.

I have had long hair for the longest time. I mean... I've also had short hair before too... but there is something about this time around that made it so much harder to cut. I grew so attached to it that I even teared up a little when my friend Sarah handed me my detached braided hair. It was quite a bittersweet feeling which left me a little shocked and speechless.

I know I know... A little lame to be sad about hair, but I guess that's what made me want to donate it more in the end. Why be attached to temporary things? Some people don't even or can't even grow hair due to disease or unfortunate circumstances. I'm glad that I can share and give something that was so special to me.. to someone else. It's a beautiful thing. The thing is.. my hair can still grow.. so why do I worry... It felt more selfish to keep it.

My long hair has always allowed me to feel more pretty and girly. I hope my hair will be donated to another girl and would allow them to feel what I felt with it.

bye bye hair! You have treated me well! I'll miss you!

Givin the love.

I just wanna give a special thanks to my friend SARAH who is the most talented hairstylist I know! She gave me an A-line cut and some lowlights. She was my hair therapist for the night and calmed me down after the hair was chopped off. hahaha. You are the best, and God gave you an amazing talent! I'd refer her to anyone! Love you bud!

Wonder if I'll grow out my hair that long again. 

well see.
