Getting praised by your boss at work.
Wearing a new outfit that you feel amazing in.
Best of all - getting a great haircut!
A few years ago, I grew out my hair and donated it to Locks of Love. I was happy to do it, I didn't mind the months and months of not having to pay for haircuts, and I was super happy to finally cut my hair!
When my mom was diagnosed with cancer in 2010, I decided that I'd like to donate hair again, but this time, in her name.
Today, a journey a year and a half in the making has come to an end.
Before.....
After.....
I was a little nervous about the grand cutting of the hair this time around. I was worried that it wouldn't look good, that Ben wouldn't like it, or that it would be shorter than I wanted.
Fortunately, as soon as she started trimming the edges after lopping off over 10 inches of hair, I started smiling and haven't been able to stop!
Today, I'm thankful for the great feeling of getting a haircut, being happy with it, and receiving compliments from wonderful friends that make you truly feel like a million bucks!
Thanks friends!!!!
Oooh, love the short 'do and what a great cause! My hair is soooo long right now (I haven't cut it because of laziness and lack of funds!), but maybe I should wait a little longer so I can donate it when I do get it cut!
