YOUR INSPIRATION PHOTO: Julianne Hough…even though she’s in her twenties and you are clearly not in your twenties, her cut has a lot of style. Plus, her texture is a lot like your own. Sometimes, she wears it wavy.
You pinned about 500 images of Julianne Hough’s adorable bob (though she is a bleached blonde, something you will never be), but you notice the texture of her hair is similar to your own, and you decide to … as Nike says … JUST DO IT.
You can feel the weight coming off your shoulders (literally) as you watch the hair fall to the ground and you feel nothing but happiness. Cutting your hair is liberating. It’s another form of letting go. You’ve let go of a lot of things over the last few years, and typically when you do, you don’t miss it when it’s gone (whatever that thing was). The same holds true with your hair. You watched it fall to the ground and felt your whole body shift.
And you stood up straighter.
