Motherhood is hard, makeup doesn't have to be.
I simplify makeup for busy moms.

Now don’t get your panties in a fuss…or whatever that saying is

But I have something to tell you. 
I cut my hair. 
like 4 inches cut my hair. 
BAM. 
Here’s the thing kids, I have been living in denial FAR too long. I have the thinnest, most baby fine hair EVER, I assure you, and despite my constant prayer and numerous frederic fekkai deep conditioning treatments, I am just never gonna have hair like this. 
It ain’t happening girls. Naturally that is. HA. 
It was time to get rid of the mullet I was rockin’ and embrace my natural, cute sassy hair. I feel like a new woman. I have my fun little angled cut back. But rest easy, I can still put in one of  my many ‘weaves’ and play the part of a long haired vixen if I feel frisky. I mean let’s get serious, this was all fake anyway. 
So really, not much has changed except that I can now go out in public with my REAL hair fixed cute and not look like a stringy haired sasquatch. 
I feel good about it. If you have hair like mine, sometimes you just have to embrace the truth and own it. My hair already looks and feels ten times healthier. Plus think about it, I bet I’ll do some more tutorials for fun short hair looks 😉 
Lets try and keep the hate mails to a minimum. Especially you Linda. 😉 haha

    It looks great!

  2. JR Mazur says:

    loveeeee the haircut!

  3. Holly says:

    You're rockin' it, girl!

  4. Ashley says:

    I LOVE the new cut — it looks so great =) I have very fine hair BUT I have a LOT of it so it doesn't seems so fine. I'm still trying to find a weave for the interim until I grow mine back out!
    I'm LOVING the bow clip — way too cute =)

  5. mrs.mfc says:

    Ohhhhhhh it looks fabulous!!! Love the short sassy look!! Cute cute cute!

  6. Lindsey says:

    HAHAHAHA!!! hahahaha. Ok, totally not gonna send hate mail. I think it looks so good on you! I really do. And if I hated it, well … I wouldn't even be leaving you a comment. I'd just pretend I never saw this post. So you and Liz have legit like the SAME hair and her hair style is very similar to yours. Looks fab on her.

    "a stringy haired sasquatch." – PLL, PLEASE!!! You would never look like that even if you tried.

    I can honestly say I love it and it looks super fab on you.

    Love you.

    LLLL the 1st

  7. CALLIE says:

    I feel your pain! I've always had to keep my hair relatively short for the same reasons.

    Love the new do!!!!

  8. Love it girl! Rock that angled bob!

  9. Lea Liz says:

    I love it!!!!! Looks awesome!!
    I have fine, thin hair too (boo) and have been letting it grow while pregnant (don't want face to look any fuller than it is getting, haha) but I think after baby and losing baby weight I may have to cut mine tooo!
    You would looke beautiful any way!!

  10. Gina says:

    I have hair exactly like yours and I feel you on this post. I go back and forth between an angled bob and a straight bob and that's about all I do with my hair. Therefore, I'm really looking forward to your short hair tutorials! Hook it up, sister!

    P.S. I LOVE your 'do!

  11. Liesl says:

    I have been growing mine super long so that I can get a cut similar to yours in the New Year and donate the rest to Locks of Love! You look beautiful and I love it!!!

    Liesl 🙂

  12. I love love love it. I have the EXACT same hair so I'm looking forward to the tips.

  13. I like it so much! I am about to get my hair cut… like majorly.

  14. Manda says:

    Cute, cute, CUTE!!!

  15. I love it,super cute!!!! 🙂

  16. Jenny says:

    Looks brooootiful!!!

  17. Karen says:

    You pull that hairstyle off well! Looks great! I always love noticeable change when it comes to hair!

  18. You look super cute, and I'm in awe of how perfect your skin looks! What on earth do you use (skin product wise)?? I'm dying of jealousy over here!

    Also wanna know more about your weaves–yours look so natural! I think it's just that you have mad skills putting them in.

  19. It looks so GOOD!!! I love a short-haircut! And girl… You totally pull it off!

    XO Lucy

  20. yeah i did the same exact thing a few months ago. i'm loving it. my next appointment is friday and i'm thinking of getting bangs. again. we have a love/hate relationship with each other.

    looks fab!

  21. Looks great! I have a similar cut, so I for one am looking forward to the hairstyling posts! Rock it, girl!

  22. Shannon Dew says:

    It looks so cute! But then again, you could never look bad!

  23. Karleen says:

    Yay for the shorter hair! You rock it girl! I'm in the same boat, I keep trying to grow my hair long but it just gets stringy and difficult to manage. I like it best at the lenght of your cut. Hmmm…maybe I need to go get mine cut too!

  24. Emma says:

    You could pull anything off! It looks great. My hair is the same way though. I unfortunately won't ever have luxurious locks like I so desperately wish I did! I seriously catch myself day-dreaming at times about if I did. Lol I love reading your posts! I also want to come out and say I know your precious sister, Hannah…so that gives me even more reason to love reading your blog. 🙂 Emma

  25. jessica says:

    I LOVE IT!!

    i have short hair, also. after having it long for years i just decided to cut it off to try something different. best decision i ever made (besides buying my house on a whim) seriously it takes like 5 min to fix and lets be for real i'd take that extra sleep any day.

    cant wait to see what cute short dos you have in store. i need some ideas other than the baby poof i be rockin

  26. Seriously, you could rock any hair style and still be gorgeous! Im looking forward to your short hair tutorials as I have yet to be creative with my new(ish) shorter hair. XOXO

  27. Marjorie says:

    I love it! Really, truly! I have thick, dark hair. I could never rock a short do 🙁

  28. Your short hair is so cute!! I'm sure I'll go back to short one day… my hair is so baby fine as well. I just had to give a shot at growing it out or I'd forever regret it! At least the weave will always be there for you if you need it! 🙂

  29. Ashley says:

    Super cute! You look good with short hair, girlie ;P

  30. Gorgeous! I wish I could cut my hair. It's my security blanket, and I legit go months without trims. It just grows so slow and I like it long! Yours is very flattering short. And, like you said, you can clip your weave in and have the best of both worlds!

    xoxo

  31. Lindsay says:

    damn gurl…i loves it. I may have to admit that my hair would probably look better with a shorter cut…rock it!

  32. Jenna says:

    You look fabulous! Loving the new do 🙂

  33. You look gorgeous!! I have baby hair, too, but lots of highlights thicken it up a littleeeee…..enough to where I can't part with it!

  34. Anna says:

    You'd look beautiful if you shaved one half and dyed the other half rainbow colors.

    But I love it. And your weaves. =)

  35. safire says:

    I love your haircut!

  36. Jessica says:

    Love it! I have really thin hair too and always keep it short. I need to find some weaves 🙂

  37. Emily says:

    I love it! My sis has thin hair and she keeps her hair short, too. Mine, on the other hand, would look ridic short b/c it's so thick!

  38. Petchie says:

    Wow looks so different, i love it!

  39. Kelly says:

    Super cute!

    I have super long- crazy thick hair and think about chopping it off like your cute lil number all the time. Ahhh- girls, we never want what we have 🙂

    But I do love it on you!

    xoxo-

  40. Lyndse says:

    LOVE your hair. So adorable…you look fab as always : )

  41. Holly says:

    I need to come to terms with my baby fine thin hair. It is long and stringy, which doesn't look good at all!

    Can you do a post about the type of cut you got? It looks like you have some volume. Love it!

  42. Love the new hair! I'm like you – I can try and try, but that fabulous thick long perfect hair just ain' happenin'! I do hope you'll do some short hair tutorials because I could seriously use some cute options!

  43. Angie says:

    Cute hair! I also have thin hair and try to grow it out, but I always end up cutting it short. I get more compliments on the short hair, so I've learned to embrace it!

  44. Casey says:

    I think the cut is fabulous! Also – the grass is ALWAYS greener. I have uuber thick long hair, and sometimes I think about chopping it and thinning the crap out of it cause it is so much work!

  45. Love the new haircut! It look super cute on you! I have the same super fine baby hair! But I'm still in denial!

  46. Mandy says:

    I loveeee your hair!!! It looks so good 🙂

  47. BeckyJo606 says:

    Super cute haircut! One side effect of taking a multivitamin that I wasn't anticipating was the awesome effects it had on my hair! My hair grew 1 1/2 inches in 8 weeks. That might help you too?

  48. Heather says:

    i know the feeling… i really need to face reality too. but i'm still in the denial stage. i want to have long luscious locks too… but i don't know if it will happen…

  49. Jaclyn Kaye says:

    Super cute, girly!! I think you look adorable!!

    It looks great! And yay for short hair tutorials!! 🙂

  51. Natalie says:

    It looks great! I just cut my baby fine hair too. I tried to grow it out and all I did was damage it so my stylist chopped mine last Friday. Short hair is sassier anyways 😉

  52. peyt says:

    It looks so cute!! You can definitely pull off anything! Rock that hair. We all know you can 😉

    I love it!

    new follower 🙂

  54. Ally says:

    I LOVE your haircut! Your color is gorgeous too… so jealous!

  55. You rock the short hair! I've always been jealous of girls that can pull short, sassy looks off, and the fact that you can do both short and long hair, even if it is a weave, is so not fair 🙂

  56. Love it!! I totally understand keeping the length, but knowing it needs the cut… At least you have all that cute fake hair and fun accessories to dress it all up too!

  57. Bri says:

    love the new haircut!

  58. Rebecca says:

    you pull off short hair so well! I look so bad with short hair because my hair is so thick I just look like a poodle =[ embrace yo hair girl! <3

  59. I have been a follower for some time now but this is my first comment (yay!), I feel like I have to start with that so I don't seem like a weird creeper lol! Your hair looks great! You have the perfect hair to pull of that cut…can't wait to see some new adorbs short hairstyles! Love it!

  60. Karrie says:

    Love it!! I've been growing my hair long for quite some time, it's time for a trim, your haircut tempts me to cut mine short again too! 🙂 Hubby would kill me though! He's been waiting a long time for it to get this long! ha!!

  61. Emily says:

    wuv it pinky. you look like a lil doll!

  62. Nikki says:

    Your rocking it! Looks great!

  63. You look amazing! You might have fine hair – but you still have mad stylin' skillzzz amd you are precious!

  64. Love Lace says:

    Your new hair cut is really cute! I'm excited for some tutorials for short hair. I never do anything different to my hair, because I just don't know how!

  65. Tiffany says:

    I LOVE it!! SO cute!! In fact, a while back I told my hair stylist that I wanted a cut just like that. He told me that it "didn't go with my face." And that was the last time that dude ever cut my hair!

  66. I absoultly Love it.

    I am a long time follower and have never commented, But I do love your hair more natural and short! I would love to see more tutorials. I watched a movie that was filmed in kentucky this weekend and it made me think of ya!

    Hope your weekend was good!

  67. Elizabeth says:

    It looks so good! Love the short sassy cut!

  68. B says:

    I LOVE IT!! I have the same hair type and cut it the exact same. I cannot wait to see some hair tutorials, please post them. Thanks, reader from Colorado 🙂

  69. Hilary says:

    I chopped all of mine after the wedding. Hadn't had it that short since I was like..6.. but I love it. and I LOVE yours! Hot!

  70. Kate says:

    Beautiful! LOVE it! I have the same issues with having baby fine hair. It doesn't really hold curls and always looks so limp and blah. Your new cut is super cute and looks great! Gives it that vavoom!

  71. A Reel Lady says:

    I'm always jealous of girls who can rock cute short hair cuts! I get like a white girl 'fro when I go short!

  72. Savannah says:

    LOVE IT. I used to have long hair and then I got it cut into a bob very similar to yours'. Mine was/is thick, but the short style makes it sososo much quicker to dry!

  73. Raquel says:

    I love it! It looks great!

  74. Shayna Embry says:

  75. Lay says:

    I love it!! I have the complete opposite problem as you… my hair is RIDICULOUSLY thick. I would loooove this cut but with my hair, it just would never work out 🙁

  76. Arielle says:

    Oh my gosh, I love it! Such a cute cut! 🙂

  77. lori says:

    I love it! And pleaseee do some short air tutorials!!

  78. Christy says:

    Hi PLL – I read your blog every day but this is my first comment. 🙂

    Love the new hair!!! I've had a similar haircut for about 2 years and it's become my signature style. You rock it, girl! Looks awesome!

  79. Lauren Kate says:

    I also read your blog every day, but I think this is my first comment. I have the same exact kind of hair and I agree that the best thing to do is embrace/own it. You look great!

  80. Leanna Vera says:

    So cute and I love the bow!

  81. Love it. Love the bow. Love love love!!!

  82. teeny says:

    LOVE the new cut! Looks great on you 🙂 You make me miss my bob!

  83. Becky says:

    It's gorgeous, you could do anything to your hair! Pretty pretty!!!

  84. Mrs. Parker says:

    LOVE it! And please bring the short hair tutorials! I lived in denial as well for about a year and recently cut my hair short again — but now can't figure out what to do with it!
    Good for you for biting the bullet! 🙂

  85. Recently just did the same, only I didn't go short enough so it grew out quickly. LOVE yours – it looks so healthy, and I live for your hair tutorials!

  86. Erica says:

    I love it! My hair is like yours too, I long for the day I could have some fairy tale long hair but it's simply not happening, it looks so much better when I keep it shorter.
    I'd love to see photos of the back, please post some, mine is shorter in back and longer in front but not super stacked or anything in the back, I like that yours looks more edgy in the front then mine, again please send photos of the back too.

  87. MJ says:

    It looks great! I love bobs.

  88. JadeyLou says:

    I love it! It looks great on you!
    I need to man up and do the same :/

  89. Erika says:

    Looks so cute! P.s. did you say sasquash?! Lol

    I'm getting mine done tomorrow I'm about 82 trims behind & feeling more & more like Rapunzel everyday. I have the opposite problem long & thick & boring. I'm ready for change, new & fresh 🙂

  90. MaviDeniz says:

    I looove the new cut! I actually like it a lot more than how used to wear it. It looks fresh and modern 🙂

    Xo

  91. Your natural hair is beautiful! Love the short cut. 🙂

  92. -Lauren says:

    Super cute…like the cutest! xo

  93. Cori H. says:

    Oh I love it! It's so cute!

  94. CLeigh says:

  95. Amelia says:

    Looks cute! I'm excited if you are promising cute short hair tutorials because I just chopped mine! Yes, please 🙂

  96. Nicole-Lynn says:

    You look adorable! Love it!

  97. Heather says:

    WE NEED SOME SHORT HAIR STYLE TUTORIALS!!!

  98. JJ says:

    You look amazing! I love the new cut. So pretty! Keep rockin' that. Maybe Carrie will see your hair and decide to cut hers 🙂

  99. Jill says:

    Listen lady, you have never looked like "a stringy haired sasquatch." That's craziness. But you look beautiful with the au naturel hair too 😉
