they are all much shorter. my head had become very shaggy, and i felt the need to get rid of the shag. so i did.
now, not unexpectely, all the shag is gone, though more of it is gone than i anticipated. i am trying to figure out if it was evened out so that, although the top was cut too, the bottom was cut more, so that as it continues to grow it will blend better, or if i just got a bunch cut off and it set me back growing out my hair for a couple months. this is not my hairstylist's fault, but a result of my incompetence with hair. i am now a little concerned that it's too short and i won't know what to do with it.
anyway, today one of the secretaries came by and said, "oh, you cut your hair? it looks very nice. still long, and it looks very nice." a few minutes later my secretary came by and, as an afterthought to what she was saying said, "oh, [so-and-so] said you got your hair cut? huh. i can't tell. you got your hair cut?" "yes." "oh. well, i can't tell. just a very little bit then, right?" "no, actually a lot was chopped off." "oh. *shrug* well i can't tell."
i thought that was nice.
