I have reached a new level of independence: I cut my hair all by myself!!

All the hair professionals and beauty books warn against cutting one's own hair, but I threw caution to the wind, took the bull by the horns and bit the bullet (which, when done all at once, is quite a cardiovascular workout)!

I took off about an inch and a half all over and I didn't just chop it off in one swell foop either... that's right, I used a method. A section at a time and 15 minutes later I was done! And it's even too!

Funny how my hair seems so much shorter after losing only 1 1/2".

I believe "invigorated" is the word to describe how I feel.
