Short N Sassy

It's totally gross outside. The kind of day that makes one reconsider their highly-stylized Posh Spice haircut.

My hair's been gone for about 2 months now, and I think it's very strange that my haircut is a common topic of conversation. Last week, I ran into someone I hadn't seen for a while and we must have talked about my haircut for a solid hour.

How much did you cut off? (see before and after photos at right)

When did you decide to do it?

Is it easy to style?

I wonder if I suddenly showed up somewhere with crazy long hair if people would react the same way....

Does it reach your ass?

How long does it take to blowdry?

Are you a hippie now?

It may be that when you don't actually have much to say to anyone, it is best to talk about glaringly obvious physical changes. The same thing happened to my husband when he grew a beard for the winter. But could you imagine gabbing about other glaringly obvious physical changes like weight gain, acute acne, or baldness?

When are you gonna upgrade those pant to a size 10?
Doesn't Proactiv help festering boils too?

When are you just gonna shave it all off and stop looking like a child molester?

But I guess small talk is better than no talk at all. Especially when someone's complimenting your new hair.
