Promises Broken



For about, oh, 15 years now I've sworn left and right that I would never have bangs again. As a child I had bangs, against my will, and as soon as my mom let me make my own hair style decisions I grew those bangs right out and never looked back. Until now. On Monday (while Brad was in Ohio - med school interview) I asked my mom and sister for a haircut and... on a whim, I asked for bangs. And I got them.

What do you think? I actually like them.

I like them, Jess. I think you look great! I had bangs for many years. It's just been the last 3 years I haven't had them. I had always thought I looked stupid without bangs because I have a high forehead, but when I grew them out the new look grew on me.

I love the bangs!

I love them! Thanks for letting me cut your hair once again... remember that one time when we were little and I cut your hair? I guess I've improved. Love your posts, LOVE your thankful post. I'm going to copy-cat you!

I absolutely love it! You look so cute! I am a big fan of your mom making you have bangs when you were little. You look good with bangs.

Love the first picture. Brings back old Jess memories. Good times.

You don't even look like you in the second picture. You almost look like, dare I say it, ME! Don't you think? I can see the resemblance...

I think they look very nice. As long as you are happy with them, that is all that matters though.

Very nice! I've contemplated the bangs again myself...It just took so much darned work to get them grown out that I think I'll regret it! Good job though. Way to take the plunge!
