So with the shorter haircut, I bought one of those small straightners, hoping it might save me some days from the blow dryer. Well, it won't fix roots that have gone astray (read bed head) but it does make for a really sleek look. It's only a very slight difference from not straightned, but as it gets longer, I think it will show more.
Now the call goes out to all you ladies. Are you growing out your hair? Did you donate recently? I was thinking it would be fun to have people send in their ideas for cute short hair or those in-between grow out tips so that people who are considering donating their hair to Pantene Beautiful Lengths can get tips. What do you think? Have something to share? Send it to 100hairstyles@gmail.com
Looking forward to it!
New Straightner
Recognition
I can't believe I did this, but I forgot to thank the ladies who came out to support the event on Saturday!
Thanks Ladies! You turned a haircut into an event!
There's Missy (& Rita of course...)
More Inspiration
And the pictures keep coming in of people who donated to Pantene's Beautiful Lengths this weekend!
Lisa, a cancer survivor, says:
Well here's some pics from my parents phone. Feel free to post any 1 or all :) I will put some b4 & after photo's up soon since my hair is naturally curly but my last profile pic was with it straight.
P.S. Isn't amazing how light your head feels after a cut like that?? :)

Bye Bye Hair!
Here it is... the last hairstyle before the cut. I know, it's boring, but you're not supposed to have styling products when you donate, plus - gotta show the length, right?

Tommorow's the Day!
So with tomorrow being the big cut, I thought some more inspiration was due...
Katie in Dallas, Tx says "I am not my hair" and it will grow back! It's such an amazing feeling giving someone a gift like that.
4 days left... Inspiration
Sorry "y'all" something went wrong with the previous post... try again.
So in the days leading up to the cut, I think inspiration is appropiate. We've had a few women donate so far, so I'll be posting those pics. There are 2 of you who posted to the event page, I will be posting those pics to the blog in the next couple days, so if you want to include a write up, send it to 100hairstyles@gmail.com and I'll post it with your pics. Donna sent in her story, below. Look at that happy smile - must be the good feeling from doing such a great thing!
Your hair looks great!!
I know it's taken forever for me to get these to you, I apologize! Okay, so it's only been since Friday. That's forever for me! I've included 2 before shots, front and back, and a couple of after shots - just choose your faves to post!!
