Compare and contrast: Something is different about today's photograph.
I decided to have my hair, which I've been growing out for a couple of years, cut off today. I've been growing it out partly out of vanity, but after finding out about Locks of Love, an organization which makes wigs for children, most of whom have a condition called alopecia areata that causes total hair loss, I had a goal: Grow ten inches of hair out so I could donate.
Good intentions being what they are, I kept growing more and more frustrated because my hair just wasn't long enough. Caring for it was taking more and more of my time -- just washing and drying it could waste half an hour of my day. Out of desperation, I went to the salon today. My stylist, Denise, shrugged and told me that the hair on the back of my head wasn't nearly long enough, but the hair on the top and sides could be used. I'd decided the hair was coming off anyway, but that just made my decision easier.
Now I feel lightheaded. :-)
