new years eve and hair

and so far have had a bunch of crap and haven't even really gotten to the drinking and I had a lot of soda last time so I'm probably going to be bloated and weigh a ton tomorrow.
and although it's just new years eve, it's late and only 2 hours to tomorrow so I've already measured and washed my hair and here is a picture from today which I'm considering 01/01/12 and my hair is 22.875"



hard to see so added a line across the bottom of the hair

update

Sooo... I suck. I haven't been on here since December 9th. And I was 146.something this morning so I'm up 6.some odd lbs so far this month.
But I'm sitting here watching Harry Potter (I got the last movie for xmas so I'm watching the last 2) and have decided I'm not going to let the holidays bring me down too bad. I may be lax this month but I'm starting over in January.
I've got new runners, I've got DDR and I still have my wii fit and exercise videos. So now I've got some more stuff to hopefully keep me entertained enough to stick to it. I want to look into getting a few more work out games for the wii though.

But now for what I've got on here for this year, I'll be deleting the majority of the posts. I'd just make a new blog all together, but I'm lazy :)

note on my hair

So since I want to try and make my hair even with my bangs without a drastic cut, I'm going to make a schedule for trimming.
I'll probably measure my hair every other week.

Now, my hair was only slightly longer than 22" when I trimmed my hair last. So I'm going to trim it 1/4-1/2 an inch when my hair reaches 24", 26", 28", 30", and so on.

My goal is for classic length hair which is roughly 42-44". So Once it's down to there I'll try to maintain that length by cutting about 1/2" for every 1/2".

And I have to look into shampoo, conditioner and leave in conditioner for curly/wavy hair. If anyone has some suggestions, please comment or email. I have naturally curly curly hair which always fell in perfect ringlets but about 10 years ago I got it chemically straightened because my hair was so short and since then it's just frizzed and doesn't curl properly. At best it get wavy but only when wet. It probably would curl but the water weighs it down and when it's dry it's just frizz so I have to straighten it to keep it down.
