Temptalia's Before & After Hair Photos

In my excitement to tell (and show!) you all about my new hairstyle, I totally overlooked how important a before and after shot would be! So, here it is 🙂 I was completely overwhelmed by the response to the cut, so thank you all so very much! I agree I could go as short as the original inspiration cut, I love that I have the illusion of length, but the perks of shorter hair. It’s not fear holding me back to go shorter, it’s how much I love this modified cut and how well it reflects me! Thank you all for your assurance the cut worked out and I could go short 🙂

YoWza! *cat calls* lol…

I’ve been trying to get inspired and creative with my hair -you’ve definitely helped! Currently I’m trying to grow it out and its taking forever!

Do update us with how you feel about your new hair routine! I so want a cute ‘do but I am fairly opposed to styling it every morning. I dont even blow dry it, just tuck and go! I have to spend every second I have in the morning on my makeup routine so trying to do a hair routine as well seems so overwhelming! lol..

LOL!

You know, today it’s totally natural, and it still has a bit of a style to it. I’m liking how it lays on its own, which is EXACTLY what I need in a cut. Sometimes it’s hard to decide on a new hairstyle, because you see it styled — not just cut.

I LOVE it! The bangs look great–it’s amazing how different you look between the two pictures (but I always thought your old haircut was so pretty too)!

This look suits you much better than the other one! I love that side bang on you 🙂 It looks like you pencilled in your brows a bit?- Looks good! I could def see you in the longer in the front, shorter in the back bob…

Christine your hair looks so beautiful!! It shows off your beautiful features much better. You have totally inspired me to finally cut my hair.

Awesome cut, Christine.. it looks so good on you! Bravo for having the courage to finally cut it!

I’ve been growing mine out for a while and it’s almost where I want it and *healthy*, which is really important. I’m going to enjoy the long hair for a while and then eventually (i’m thinking when next spring or summer rolls around) I may have summoned the strength to get a cute shoulder-length cut. We’ll see, lol..

But yeah, you look great! who knows, maybe you’ll have a change of heart at some point and decide to go shorter.. =P If you do, you know we wanna see pics!

Thanks so much, Trace! 🙂

Yay for healthy hair! Congrats on getting through the growing out stage 🙂 But I totally know what you mean. Once you’ve gotten long hair, it’s hard to part with. No matter what people say, even though hair DOES grow back, that doesn’t mean it grows back overnight!
