The difference between men and women

I got my hair cut the other day.
It was getting pretty darn long, sitting almost at my waist.  Though I like having long hair, it was really getting a bit too long.I had pulled a hair off the bathroom sink the other day and it just kept coming and coming and coming.  I actually measured it just to see.  34 inches.

I was bordering on polygamist hair.  ("not that there's anything wrong with that")

Point being, it was long.

This is where it was the day before the cut:

Oy-when just sat to air dry it sure looked nappy.
I promise I actually *DO* my hair when I go out in public, so the rest of the world has been spared witnessing my hair appearing like this.

See?
I do have a little bit of pride.  I promise.  Well, at least some days.

So I cut my hair.  I took off a good 8ish inches I guess?  Had some layers added, hopefully a little bit of style.  If nothing else it sure looks a heckuva lot healthier.

So later that night some good friends stopped by.  When I opened the door the first thing she said was "Wow!  look at your hair!  It looks great!"
He said "oh.  Did you cut your hair I guess?"

My mom noticed immediately, my sister commented "Wow-you butched it short!"

My girls noticed it.  My boys did not.

My husband's original comment was "Hmm...I can't really tell a difference."
Granted I sent him a picture on his phone so it wasn't a great representation, but even in person he didn't see much of a difference until I really curled it and styled it the next day, at which point he could see the layers a bit and could tell it was shorter.

And there you have it.
