Happy almost Friday, everyone!
As I mentioned in my previous blog post, I am photographing a hair & fundraising event held by The Daily Bride/Ashley Blanche Events in September and I’m also participating by donating 8″ of my hair for the Pantene Beautiful Lengths campaign! I grew my hair long for my wedding, and while it was nice to have the length, it’ll grow back and I’m happy to share it with someone else who could use it.
My hair was layered so unfortunately only the back section was long enough to be donated, but something’s better than nothing, right?
Here’s me holding my freshly chopped hair at the salon yesterday:
I had to take the photo in a hurry since I was getting my hair cut at a school (the student was just waiting for the instructor to come back), so I snapped this quickly without time to check if the braids were in focus. But you get the picture.
2.5 hours later (you heard that right! The school takes their time going through each step of a cut very carefully) I was all set with my new ‘do.
Here’s a side-by-side of the before & after transformation… voila!
Since I didn’t have anyone with me please excuse the selfies I’m about to show you so you can see the different angles of the cut 😛
A fun experience, and I’m happy I could help.
If you’re interested in joining in on the fun (and getting your hair cut for free!), come join us at Calia Hair Design on Sunday, September 29th from 1-4pm. You can also drop off a ponytail from a haircut you got elsewhere, if you prefer. If your hair isn’t long enough but you’d still like to help, come give a $5 donation at the door and enjoy the selection of refreshments provided by super nice local vendors.
Plus, would be super nice to meet you!
