What a great idea! I have never heard of this, but something I am defiantly going to check into. Just a couple of months ago, I cut off 10 inches, just so My hair would be at my waist. Since then I have been considering going shorter. My hair is natually curly or wavy, and when stretched out.......I could easily cut another foot at least off and still be past shoulder length. Again, great idea! I'm so proud of you! You look great in your new cut too!
