My hair before the big chop for Locks of Love

I am on a Spring Cleaning kick that I am trying to extend to all facets of my life.  It is not happening overnight but Spring is here until Summer Solstice on June 21st!  This week, amongst other projects, I decided that I was ready to do something different with my look.  I was planning on a short bob at the chin, but then realized that going a little shorter would allow me to make a donation to Locks of Love.  

As a cancer survivor myself, I got very excited about the impact a few more inches could make on someone’s day-to-day life while battling cancer.  So, I headed into my hair stylist, told her the plan and walked out with a new hairdo and a 12-inch braid in a bag!  I will be shipping off my snipped locks to Locks of Love this coming week.  I feel lighter and excited about the new look, but more importantly I am thrilled to think of the ripple effect of this decision.
