Today I decided to cut my hair off. Piper Jane has been pulling it nonstop, and it is (was) just so ridiculously long. When I would lean on my elbow to hoist myself up in a seat (does that make sense?) my hair would be pulled by my own elbow. I was seeing how long I could get it, and I guess I now know…really, really long. I LOOOOVE long hair. I really do and always have, but I have had the same hair for way too long, and a change always does a body good.
So when I got to work, I walked straight to Ofelia and said “Ofelia, I want you to cut my hair short. Please.”
She said “Great! How would you like it?”
I said “Windy and Blowy. Like a paperdoll from the 1980s.”
She didn’t know what I meant and then I realized I was no better than the guy who brings comic books in and says he wants the same hair as Flash Gordon.
So, THIS is what I meant by windy and blowy and paperdoll-y….
And this..
Windy and Blowy is exactly what I got…
I have the hugest hair ever. I am so happy. If you want to tell me it looks like I have a bird’s nest on one side of my head, I will say “thank you” and beam with huge hair happiness.
I was so surprised at my lack of emotion during the haircut. I felt so much relief and excitement throughout the process. Yes, I miss my long hair already, but this is going to be really fun. Hooray!
I capitalized this blob post.


























I LOVE IT! Of course with your face you can pull anything off….but seriously, it looks great.
gha!! i lurve it!!! you look absolutely be-yootiful.
I love it to death!! I am a bit partial to short hair, being a short hair gal myself, but I think it makes cute people even cuter, so you’re like breaking my face with all the cuteness right now.
WOW!!! Stunning!!!
I LOVE it. I don’t ever remember seeing you with short hair?…It is beautiful. I am so jealous of ben seeing you guys in NYC. he said piper was the sweetest and cutest thing he has ever been around.
You look fabulous!
OH! my GOSH! REAG! I LOVE it. Seriously, I thought you had the most gorgeous hair ever when it was long, and this just goes to show what a gorgeous girl you are because you still look smokin!
The new style is adorable. Welcome to the short hair club.
I was scrolling and scrolling and the anticipation was building and building…!!!
So SO cute!
I remember the fresh, liberating feeling that came with going long to short (it’s been a while since one of those times was a GOOD haircut), but I think I need to hang on to my hair a little longer. I’m just not as cute as you
Okay, so I’m glad you really did cut your hair and didn’t just pin it as said on FB. Hooray! So again, I love the cut. It has the best shape and looks so good on you.
short and sassy!
Great. My husband is going to be so mad if I copy you.
But I have been thinking I wanted a cut as well! I can’t pull off a paper doll hair like you. I wish.. But you know.. The bones issue.. I’m thinking more like Britney Spears in her womanizer video. Her bones are big like mine, and I think it would be a sassy hair do for me. What do ya think?
BTW, You are the cutest thing around NY. I didnt mean to make that comment all about me.
Shut up! So cute!!
Oh my gosh Reagan…I LOVE it!! You are a gorgeous girl no matter what…but I am loving the new do! I love long hair. And big hair. I also remember what a pain it was to keep my hair out of everything all the time. I still kind of do.
There is an extremely logical reason that paper dolls have blowy hair. It’s so that they can have long hair, but still have exposed shoulders for which to fold the clothes tabbies over. Who knew it would start a hair fashion trend among three dimensional people who don’t need exposed shoulders in order to hold up their clothes?
LOVES it!!! You.look.AWESOME!!!!! Totally paper-doll-blowy-hair.
I love it! I am jealous of your paper doll hair! I wish I had some wind.
i LOVE LOVE LOVE your new cute! you look gorgeous and adorable at the same time!
