So.... what was it?
Well.... a few days ago FROGGY suggested I do something with my hair. AND funnily enough, I had been thinking of doing it for a few months myself.
So, while at the Plaza with my girlfriends yesterday, they suggested I go into Rodney Wayne's and see if they thought I would suit it. They said I should just DO IT.
So I did.
This is what I got done:
I last had a fringe about 13 years ago... but grew it out real fast. Before that, I was about 15! Sheesh... a lot of water under the bridge since then.
Today, we go home.
Once again we will make a day trip of it.... stopping at various places along the way.
A few more photos from yesterday:
ABOVE: Anne, Chris D and me yesterday.
ONWARD...
We are safely home. Busy unpacking, and getting ready to weigh in at Weight Watchers. We were good! Seriously, only one 'evil' meal, and even then I did NOT go over my daily points allocation. So, fingers crossed. Will come back later and report in.
THE HAIR: thanks to everyone who likes it, or is nice enough to lie! lol
I am a little worried I look like mutton dressed as lamb (thank you Maria).... but I LOVE my long hair, it is not a problem to me keeping it this length. And if anyone does think I am mutton dressed as lamb, that is THEIR problem... not mine. I am going to have long hair till the day I die... and by the time I'm 80 it might even have BLUE steaks in it too. ha ha ha.
ONWARD... gotta face dem scales!
End of Day: well the scales were kind. Stew lost 1.2 kilos and I lost 1.5 kilos... so we are both very happy with out efforts, even while on holiday.
After WW we bought some groceries and came home. Going to chill out now, we are exhausted from all the travelling.
Photos tomorrow of today's trip.
ON TRACK: you betcha!
nite nite.
Looks good! And you can always pin them back at home if they start to bug you :)
ReplyDeleteYou & me look alike now..... I had a small fringe, but had a deeper one put in a couple of months ago! I think it makes you look younger, and emphasises your eyes.
ReplyDeleteLovely :-)
Your hair is really beautiful, it suits you. Chris x
ReplyDeleteI love the fringe, I also think it takes years off you. An excellent choice.
ReplyDeleteI love it, I love it, I love it. I think it is the perfect fringe for you. It is stunning.
ReplyDeleteLOL goes to show how much I take in till I read it I had no idea what the change was...... when you said something about it yesterday I thought you may have gone real short :), have a safe trip home.
ReplyDeleteNICE!! VERY NICE!!!! The fringe/bangs really softens you... I love the new look! Safe travels.
ReplyDeleteNice hair :)
ReplyDeleteI think the bangs look great! I agree, they really showcase your gorgeous eyes Chris.
ReplyDeleteI like your hair! Can I start you calling you Heidi? Or, you can braid it on the sides and I can call you Pippi!
ReplyDeleteLookin Good Chris - you look so much younger with the fringe!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are having a great time
LOVE the hair Chis! it totally softens your face and makes your eyes POP!
ReplyDeleteWell done you!
I would cut it off to shoulder length too. Long hair is so time consuming, and gets in the way. And past 50 looks so mutton dressed as you know what!
ReplyDeleteChris, you've honestly got the loveliest hair I've ever seen. Gorgeous.

I think it looks really great, Chris It really does make you look younger, and showcases your beautiful blue peepers!
ReplyDeleteHope you all had a great trip; travel safely!
XOXO,

Very beautiful! Hair, eyes, sun-kissed face...you look like a model.
ReplyDeletei like it, love how your eyes are so ... accented perhaps, not sure of the word i am searching for but anyway you have the best eyes and your hair sets them off even more :) love your tan too!
ReplyDeleteand love you!
You look like Barbie now.
ReplyDeleteNICE HAIR CUT!!! Well done! Does take years off your face!
ReplyDeleteWow, Chris, that looks fantastic! And, if it gives you the S**ts, just do what Dobby does, and bobbypin it back in the centre :-)
ReplyDeletexxxx
Looks really good , Beautiful
ReplyDeleteI like the fringe but think it should be a bit shorter as now it seems as if you don't have any eyebrows.
ReplyDeleteLove the bangs (fringe)! Your color is terrific, too! It's always nice for me to shake things up a little. Change is good! Thanks for sharing pics of the family and your friends!
ReplyDeleteChris,
ReplyDeleteGreat hair. Seriously I need to get a life. Woke at around 5am (Australian time) and before I got out of bed checked your blog on my phone for the news. Take care and travel safely. Love Martine xx
I LOVE IT! Looks great, you look 10 years younger!
ReplyDeleteKrissy - SIngapore
I like it! Very complimentary to your face. You look great.
ReplyDeleteAnd Mike and Joyce are such a cute couple :)
I love it too Chris, it really suits you and like people have said, emphasises your eyes. They did a great job, and I know what you mean about haircuts being scary sometimes!
ReplyDeleteHave a safe and fun trip home.

I love the fringe on you, and the blonding around your face! You have such lovely thick hair and gorgeous eyes, it gives you a lovely soft feminine look!
ReplyDelete*wolf whistle*
It is always fun to have a change. I like your new look and if you don't after a while you can always grow them out.
ReplyDeleteLove love love the fringe. It makes you look even younger and it accentuates your eyes.
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip home.
ok..hate to be Debbie downer here but I hate them!!
ReplyDeletealthought if you didn't see the before and after they look fine I just prefer you without..
you are still gorgeous chick!! x
FRINGE!!! how cute. We call them bangs and I'm hooked haven't been able to grow mine out since I was 22. They soften your face and make you look younger. your eyes are so BLUE! There are a lot of ways to wear fringe and also ways to cut them. They can be tapered layered and done in a lot of different ways. Straight across can be hard to style keeping them that straight but I love them and I think piling your hair into a loose twist with a big clip and letting it spill over would look simply smashing. You have a great head of thick hair!
ReplyDeleteI Like it! I agree it makes you look younger!! Really makes your eyes shine!!!!
ReplyDeleteGod Bless~
Debbie
And seen as I got to see the new hairdo in person it indeed looked nice shame about cherry island glad you got home safely.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna have to comment about your son. Wow, what muscles man! He is drop dead gorgeous! Joyce is certainly a very lucky lady indeed. If only I was 15 year younger... now that's a piece of meat, I would love to eat!!
ReplyDeleteI don't think the photo does you justice! Love the new look:-)
ReplyDeleteGreat to catch up! Good luck tonight at WW.
I LOVE EVERYTHING about you -gal!!!!!!!!!!!! And as long as you are happy , I am happy!
ReplyDeleteYou look like a school-girl to me!
Looks great Chris, it does make you look younger.
ReplyDeleteElaine
The fringe looks fabulous! I think it makes you look younger too and your beautiful eyes stand out even more!
ReplyDeleteWell done to both you and Stew on your losses this week! You are both doing well!
