Hey everyone, like some of you know, i've been planning to get a haircut for quite some time, because it seems that all the stuff i'd been doing these past 6 months has not been working. Yes, my hair's been growing like usual, but the ends just were NOT getting any better. It got to the point where I would get knots in the ends of my hair, and they would look like straw... not pretty.
So I got so fed up but didn't want to jack up my hair yet AGAIN with another one of my "trims"... see the thing is, I can only reach certain parts, so the rest still has the unhealthy ends. I wanted something professional, so that I don't have to think about my ends for another four months. Mind you, last time I got a professional trim or haircut was March 2005, 2 days into my haircare journey. I needed to get rid of band ends for good and it worked, because I didn't have to worry about them until August 2005
So, since tomorrow is my HIGHSCHOOL GRADUATION
yay: ) I went to get a perm, trim/haircut, and bangs. It was at a new place and frankly, I was terrified. She did a GREAT job with the perm, best one I got since November 2005. She didn't rollerset, but just blowdried and it came out so smooth and thick, I 
it... she cut some cheek-length bangs like I asked her, and she asked me how much I wanted cut off, and I said "about 2 inches" because I know that the damage extended to that much.
WELL, she cut off a lot more than that. More like 4 inches
and I was shaking because I didn't know how much she was cutting in the back since I didn't have my glasses on and can't see. In the end though, I COULDN'T be mad because my hair was all one length like i've been wanting for a while now, PLUS I got the bangs that I've been too chicken to get.
So, as of right now, I'm back above brastrap, at about 21.5" I'm assuming. I'm setting my new goal for the end of the year at 25", which is where I technically was before the cut
