As many of you probably already saw on Instagram, I recently chopped my hair (about 8 inches actually, even though I state 10 in the video), all of which has been donated to Locks of Love. For my longtime readers here, you may recall the last time I did this in San Francisco several years ago, cutting about a foot of hair off, into a similar wavy long bob, or what I affectionately called my wavy LOB. I remember the process being very cathartic last time and lately I've been craving a change to mix things up around here (probably because I just turned 32!). So, I gave my good friend Andreas a call and the rest is history.
Oh, and for all my New York guys and gals, I cannot recommend Andreas and his salon enough. He's the most patient and thorough hair stylist I've ever worked with (he literally sat through MANY inspiration photos without flinching) and he's SO creative (his editorial styling work is AH-MAZING). PLUS, his dog London greets you at the door. AND, he's just as obsessed with the Royal family as me -- there's a lot of footage from our session of us talking about Princess Diana, who I could talk about for HOURS. I'll stop rambling now, so you can start booking with him. 🙂
HUGE thank you to Andreas for having me last week -- and for making me laugh the entire time!

If you've been following along here on This Time Tomorrow for a while now, you may recall this post from 2012. Where I chopped off my hair. About 12 inches to be exact.
As someone who had long hair for most of her life, I remember sitting in the hairdresser's chair in San Francisco (hey, Deb!), literally going white and panicking. Confession: I probably rescheduled that appointment four times until eventually asking a friend to go with me to make sure I actually followed through. My friend stayed. And she cut it. And I felt so liberated.
Isn't it funny that something like hair can have such control over us? Personally, I'm not one to take many chances with my hair -- before that big cut in 2012, I went through my Zooey Deschanel phase (like everyone else) with blunt bangs and up until a few weeks ago, I had never really colored my hair either.
But really. It's just hair. And it grows.
This is a really rambling way of saying: I'm growing my hair out again. Don't get me wrong. I still love my current long bob cut. It's been good to me over the past few years and it still feels really me at the end of the day.
But it's good to mix things up, right? And no better time to mix things up than in the midst of a lot of other change. After all, I've secretly been missing messy, undone beachy waves, loose ponytails and fishtail braids. Heck, even my celebrity doppelgänger is growing hers out. All of which I can enjoy, in oh, about a year from now.
In the meantime, I've been gathering a few inspiration images here on Pinterest, with a subtle balayage touch, to hold me over. Have you guys recently grown your hair out? What did you do about the awkward in between phases?
