I got a cute haircut yesterday and it reminded me of something a girlfriend said when our kids were really little and we were in the midst of losing baby weight. She said it's really important to get up and put a bit of effort into your appearance because it just makes you feel good and that contributes to wanting to stick to your regime. Even if you're in the house all day with the screaming baby you should try to take 5 minutes to fix your hair and put on some makeup. I find when I don't do this, just go straight into my little painting room, I have a hard time getting inspired and I feel like any minute the no-talent police are going to come and haul me away. So, today I'm grateful to have girlfriends, here and online, who are so cool and supportive. I raise a glass of sparkling apple juice to you all!

I'm looking for a cute cair cut...what's it look like? I've gone threw a few in the last 6-8 months and keep going back to the same style. Right now my stylist has me looking like I'm from the 70's!! I'll be back to the same old cut in about 5 weeks if I don't come up with something else!

Well, I went in with my hair below my shoulders by about 3 inches and I came out with a Meg Ryan short flippy bob kinda thing! It's really versatile as I can also flat iron it into a smooth look and wear it behind my ears. I like wash and wear but as I get older my hair has needed a lot more attention from me and I've taken to using styling products more often. I HATE putting gunk in my clean hair but it really does help get and keep a style. Take in a photo of something you like and hope it comes out OK. It'll always grow, so no worries, right?!

Flip through some magazines, get inspired. Take it to a good hairdresser you trust, and let them make it happen. Maybe try some fresh new color. That can also boost someone into looking much healthier. Let me know, I do hair color for a living... I'm always full of great ideas if I can see pictures.

I got a haircut about two weeks ago and love it.... I love having longer hair but it was starting to "pull" my whole face down, so I had my hairdresser cut off about 4 - 5 inches and now it's shoulder length. It moves more easily and it actually has a style now. We must do these things for ourselves now and then - nothing drastic, but the little "pick me up" changes are good for the psyche. Glad you feel good - I've been there. Love yourself unconditionally!

You are completly right, I have had days were I just lay around and don't take care of myself and I get depressed, Its always fun getting ready especially when your clothes feel loose.
