It was rainy, and windy today
(SHOCKING)
so this is about the only semi decent shot I have of my hair after a day out.
But you get the idea.
Confession:
I cried this morning over the 8 plus inches I cut off.
I know.
So dramatic.
I'm not proud of it.
But in my defense,
I had acupuncture for the first time this morning..
and I think it left me feeling emotional.
This would be what I like to call
justification
It's a middle part.
In case you were like
"but which way is it parted megan?!"
I went to The Rainbow Room in Glasgow City Centre.
Stephen came too..
We were seated next to each other..
I had Dean,
S had Zara.
They do a shiatsu head massage before they start cutting..
but get this..
it's not done at the sink while your getting your hair washed..
they get some lotion hair stuff,
bring it to their station where you are seated..
then proceed to put it in your hair and rub your head, neck, and shoulders..
which is nice..
I mean, who doesn't like a little rub down?
But i mean,
here I am,
getting a massage from 6'4 muscle man Dean,
who i just met..
while S is getting a massage next to me by petit Zara..
in the midst of the hussel and bussel of the salon..
I dont know about you..
But S and I dont like to mix our swinger lifestyle with hair products and sharp objects.
I joke.
too far?





I ALWAYS cry after haircuts. Sometimes during.
ReplyDeleteBut hello, you look amazing <3!
Haha, I always cry when I cut too much off, or a lot off. But it looks really good on you !
ReplyDeleteI think it looks amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it...love love loveeee it! And I would also like to know what lipstick/gloss you are wearing because it is the perfect color.
ReplyDeleteAre you still going to be able to do your signature Messy Megan Top Knot??
I cut mine from about butt length to mid-back a few years ago and I cried,too. (Maybe for a couple of days, maybe not.) The weird thing was I was OK at home, cuz the BF didn't make a huge deal out of it. Next day I went to work and all the ladies I work with were like "OMG!" and I burst into tears. It looked great, it was just such a shock. Yours looks great, too! Enjoy the lighter head! :) Also, I want a tall male Scottish hairdresser.
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your hair, it look so great!
ReplyDeleteAnd I would love that head massage, my stylist gives me a little rub on the back of my neck when washing my hair for like 5 seconds and calls that a massage...not so much! LA isn't going to know what hit them when you go home...looking hawt!!!
It looks terrific!
ReplyDeleteYou new haircut looks lovely! It's okay, I may have gotten upset after cutting, wait for it, an inch and a half off a few weeks ago.
ReplyDeleteUm you look HOT. The hair is amazzzinnnngggggg!!! It still looks long, don't worry.
ReplyDeleteAnd also, I must know what you're wearing on your lips. It's perfection!
LOVE your new hair!
ReplyDeleteand that picture is fabulous :)
yeah that might be a little weird about the massages - but they're massages - so i'd take it :)
I think it looks great! I have long hair as well and when I cut all mine off I too felt sad, but I just posted something about my own experience of a drastic change to my hair and I feel though it may not look the best, I feel like a different person! I hope you embrace your new hair and rock it because it looks great!

Giiiirl! Your hair looks AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteI just had to dye for the first time ever. Grays at 27 (wtf?!?). But after it was done, it looks just like it did before! So it wasn't that bad afterall. But I did have MAJOR panic attacks about it and waited way too long with a few too many scraggly gray hairs...
You look AMAZING!! *HAWT*
ReplyDeleteYour new hair looks Hot!!!
ReplyDeleteYour new hair looks Hot!!!
ReplyDeleteit's totally okay to cry after a haircut. we've all done it and i'm sure none of us are proud of it.
ReplyDeletea head massage sounds super nice!
new follower!
-erin
hot.
ReplyDeletebut, then again, you're always hot. and I definitely cry after I cut my hair. every single time.
Wooow, your new hair cut is amazing! You look absolutely stunning, Meg! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure I would also cry about 8 inches being cut off... What is it with girls and their hair? It grows back. That being said I think ur hair looks absolutely lovely, and the lipstick is pretty rockin too!! :)
ReplyDeleteDidn't think you could get prettier and then you went and did it.
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks amazeballs! It's got that perfect bouncy look. Watch out! The Herbal Essence people are gonna come knocking on your door!
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks great! And so do your lips! Love that color.
ReplyDeleteYou should check out my post today. I think you'll like #4. :)

ooh girl, that hair got bodyyyy!
ReplyDeletei'm a fan of the cut. even if it did require a few tears.
so call me maybe?
ReplyDeleteLOVE it! I think they layers look amazing! Love that lip color too!
ReplyDeleteSo cute. It still looks really long!
ReplyDeletehaha i always cry after a get separated from my locks ;). It's just too hard EVERY time. But a couple days (weeks?) later I'm in love with new do and enjoying it's new liveliness.
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks great...even after a windy/rainy day! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the hair!
ReplyDeleteAnd I think they had the coed massage on purpose once they saw how hot you were. Just sayin.
Hahah it is perfectly okay to cry for the loss of hair with or without justification. I know I cried like a baby the night I cut my hair from about elbow length to just below my ears. That was the most drastic cut I ever got and I swore off cutting my hair above my shoulders for a long time. To this day I won't cut it short. Yours looks great though! And I am LOVING the layers.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! I'm so tempted to chop my hair but I can't work up the guts. I haven't cut off more than an inch or two at a time since high school! (and that was a looong time ago!)
ReplyDelete*Love the lip color too!
LOVE LOVE your hair! I always go through a mourning period when cutting my hair too though. But yours is gorg!
ReplyDeletelove!!

Fact- You're not really a woman if you haven't cried over your hair cut at least twice in your life.
ReplyDeleteyou're such a sexy beast.
ReplyDeletelove it.
ReplyDeleteI have a question. I was thinking about you as I was driving to the grocery store today, and I was all, "so wait, does Megan work? Or does she get to sleep in til her hearts desire and just do whatever she pleases all day." I know you said you were waiting on a work visa and I don't mean this in a bad way because I ENVY YOU if this is true. I don't "work" either but I do stay home with my kids, and I was thinking, as I was thinking about you, how much I would loooooooooooooooooove to just be able to stay home. with no kids. Like, I'd give up my kids to be able to do it.
oh my goodness....so gorgie-oso!
ReplyDeleteoh ps. I SO HAVE A BLOG POST in the works that I was going to post, and I swear to the good Lord above, I SO WROTE IN THAT POST that I cannot understand for the life of me people who CRY actual tears over their HAIR. I swear to you. Not that it makes me love you any less, but now I feel like I can't post that post, because I don't want to come across as mean and unsympathetic :(
ReplyDeletepps I feel like my last two comments are snotty or something, but I swear that isn't my intention haha!! You know I LOOOOVE you! even if you DO cry over your locks ;)
Your posts always make me smile. thank you.
ReplyDeleteand i love your new hairdo. i would have cried too. we can be that dramatic. heck, we need to be that dramatic sometimes. :)
It looks great! The rain and wind can't even mess it up. Lookin good there, lady! x
ReplyDeleteYour hair is so pretty I could cry. I'm sorry it also made you cry in a totally different way, but we can bond over crying about your hair, right?
ReplyDeleteCan I have your hair.. and also that lipcolor..yes? thanks.
ReplyDeleteI think you hair looks great, but I guess any kind of change takes a bit of getting used to. :)
ReplyDeleteBAHA you always make me laugh. I LOVE LOVE your hair of course!! I cacn't wait to see more pictures of you with your gorgeous locks!
ReplyDeleteI totally know what you mean. I was pretty upset last month when I cut about 7inches off. BUT, it looks fabulous on you and definitely still pretty long.
ReplyDeletethe haircut is amazing as is the lip color- obsessed with punchy pink lately!
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks fab!
ReplyDeleteWay to go!! It looks so darn good and healthy! I'm dying to cut my hair. Its only been since Oct...no sept. oh well, I wish I could.
ReplyDeleteHope the coloring went well today. ;)

your hair looks great AND I love your lipstick. I hope the rain clears up soon!

Bomb.com. And I am pretty sure the massage thing needs to be mandatory with EVERY haircut service in the whole world. Even at Supercuts or whatever that place is called.
ReplyDeleteYou look lovely and I am sure all of your swinger partners will approve of the sexiness that is your head.
me loves.
ReplyDeleteok, your hair is looking a touch more magical in this picture then it did when we were skyping today...just to keep you humble.
ReplyDeleteok, what i really mean to say is that you look SLAMMIN and i need to get my hair done and my tan on before i see you so you don't outdo me.
also...you look like you just did the dirty...which you probably did.
ReplyDeleteYou hair looks gorgeous and still long, don't worry:) what is the lipstick called your wearing it's kinda perfect!!!
ReplyDelete@Mel- its maybelline's pink punch!
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteI think you look so similar to Catherine Middleton! xx
never too far. and it looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteI cry almost at the thought of getting my hair cut. I get it cut literally once a year, and every time my hairdresser gabs about how its dead, and then CHOP he cuts off an inch which might as well be a foot. I am nervously awaiting a cut in the very near future. Maybe I should bring in your headshot? Creepy? Also, I found my first gray hair this morning. And when I say grey I mean white. Time for a hair appointment. ALSO hows the middle part going? I've stood by the side part since high school when I realized looking like Katie Holmes on Dawsons Creek was not in anymore. Alright I'm finished.
ReplyDeleteI love your hair and it makes me want to have my hair cutbut my hair isn't long enough to look so lovely afterwards.
ReplyDeleteAnd is it just me or do you look like adrianna from 90210 in this photo kind of.
BEAUTIFUL. I need to cut my hair too but I don't have the guts. You my friend are a GEM! :)
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks great! I miss those head and neck massages.
ReplyDeleteHoly crap! Your hair is PERFECTION! So gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteit looks beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteConfession: I sometimes cry when I get frustrated with my hair. It's about shoulder length and super thick so believe me when I say it looks GREAT when it's down and styled...
....but i want a bun....or a top knot...or a side pony that doesn't stick straight out...and then i cry. you are not alone!
So funny. The massage is the best part!! I love the cut, too. And middle part...so in. Look at you, you must of been a model once or something ;)
ReplyDeleteIt ALWAYS takes time to get used to new hairstyles, I understand. But you look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh hey hottie. It looks faaaaabulous!! And I don't think sharp objects are ever a good idea...
ReplyDeleteLayers really change things up! Especially when your running your fingers through your shortest layer and realize just how SHORT it is. I definitely think yours is cute! i hope the tears leave and you decide you like it soon. It's no fun having hair that makes you sick.
ReplyDeleteYou are stunning. I would cry if I cut off that much, too, except that would be like my WHOLE hair!! I love that we both were hair post friends on the same day.
ReplyDeleteyour hair is absolutely beautiful! love!
ReplyDeleteand don't worry, us girls always get too attached to our hair!
xo TJ
You look stunning! Love that lipstick! I NEVER cut my hair and always encounter a rough patch afterwards wondering if I did the right thing....sounds funny, but I'm not joking. I'm sure get it :)
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteIt looks amazing and in a totally platonic way, you look smoking HOT!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blog with so many inspiring ideas! Great work:) Would you like to follow each other?
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! I don't think I've ever cried but definitely have had mini-panic attacks when I get a lot cut off!
ReplyDeletewhoa. hello gorgeous! I hope those tears didn't last too long, cause your hair cut is HOT!
ReplyDeletehot stuff!
ReplyDeletePretty lady.
ReplyDeleteoh dear. HA!! seriously. How can one not laugh at this..
