I had a hissy the other day and stayed mad for hours. The reason excapes me now but I combed my long hair out, parted it from front to back, down the middle. Then put each side in a ponytail just above my shoulders. Did the same in the back, but a little shorter. Got my sissors and cut somewhere around 8-10 inches of hair off below the bands in my hair.
Looked at the hair in the sink and in the mirror.
“OMG! What in the holy hell did I just do?”
Well, I took out the bands and unbelievably I had a rather pretty bob, longer in the front, which is what I wanted.
I guess the saying “The Gods help them that help themselves.” is true. They helped me not pull a ‘Brittany’ and shave my head, but give myself a decent haircut.
Rich never said a word. I must have been mad at him.
I’m blessed
Love

Whew. Glad it turned out all right! Whenever I tried to cut my hair I look like a drunk toddler did it. LOL!
The last time I cut anyone’s hair… well, I was 5 & then my brother’s head needed to be shaved so it would all grow back the right way. 
@Garnet WOW!!! That’s long hair, did you donate it to Locks of love? I have done that a couple of times, but since I lost my hair with chemo it hasn’t had time to grow back long and now as I’m entering another cancer treatment regimen next week I’ll be losing it again soon! #baldisbeautiful!
I love that you were having a hissy fit frenzy and just had the b@lls and chopped it off - AND IT TURNED OUT AMAZING. Awesomesauce!!! 
It sounds like it all worked out in the end- what was that Shakespeare play? “All’s well that ends well!” 
I am sure you are rocking your new haircut, Garnet- enjoy it! 
The only person’s hair I cut is my husband’s because he shaves it with clippers. 
OH MY! Glad it turned out great in the end!! Whewwww!
Rule #4 of Being Married and Not Sleeping on the Couch:
Never comment on her hair until you find put how she feels about it, because
If you like it and she hates it, you’re an idiot;
If she likes it and you don’t, you are an unsupportive [illegitimate birth];
It’s better to be thought of as unobservant than offensive.
I have noticed that in the past whenever I would do this exact thing it was because I was ending a phase or a cycle in my life. A new me emerged along with my new haircut.
And never answer the question “Does this dress make me look fat?”
The right answer would be…No love, it makes you look like a delicate Butterfly.
Perfectly said. Heres a well trained man. Lol. Lots of love to u brother
@TheTravelWitch_Bry

All’s well that ends well" is the name of the play.
Shakespeare was the author, of a play about lies and deceit.
Written as only Shakespeare could write it.

I’m glad you didn’t shave your head! Sounds like it turned out cute.
I’ve shaved mine down a few times. I’m past that point in my life and I’m growing it out again (some good inches past my shoulders now), but my first time shaving I went full hog and used a razor. Completely bald head. I hid in the bathroom and cried for a bit after that, lol. That was 20 years ago. Never did that again!
We had to read a few Shakespeare plays in school and I actually saw one live at the Globe Theatre on a school trip, but I admit I didn’t appreciate them much at all when I was a student haha. Maybe it’s something I can appreciate now, having lived and experienced life some more!
Aka, perhaps it’s time to give Shakespeare another try, so that all can end well? 
Lots of love and many blessings! 
In the honors program at the university I went to, we had to take a course that was nothing but Shakespeare studies 
at the end of the year we had a project where we had to act out part of the play. We got it on video, I was the director, and we sort of twisted it to be satire because the premise behind Othello was, to our college brains, ridiculous I have the video saved somewhere lol maybe one day I’ll find it!
That sounds amazing - I hope you can find the video someday and give it a watch! I bet it will be a whole different experience to the future version of you haha
We did a little play in my college Japanese class and I was the evil raccoon 
- had to wear a big fur jacket and tail and everything lol. That is one performance better off lost in history if you ask me
