After months of inertia and indecision, last week I finally printed out a handful of my hair-pins from Pinterest (Alexa Chung and La Klum featured prominently in my ersatz collage) and headed in for my first proper haircut in two years. In some ways, what one chooses to wear to a haircut seems pretty important to me, as it's one of the best ways you can give a new hairdresser some sense of your personal style. I like to think of my style as generally rather 'cute, but low-key,' so I went with a fun printed top, wide leg jeans, and my favorite go-to accessories. I didn't end up going for anything too revolutionary, just a long-ish bob, but my hair feels so much nicer now without all my old straggly ends. Now I'm looking forward to experimenting more with styling it - and of course, if all else fails, it's still long enough for a sock-bun.

LOOOVVVVEEEE! I was waiting to see what you would do every since I fell in love with your sock bun. I am so jealous- I've been growing my hair out for my wedding, and it is driving me CRAZY. I will definitely refer back to your hair pins for inspiration after the wedding- love the long bob!
I love this look for you! Seriously, it's so great! Worth the wait, no question. :)
major love for your foxy tank, whistle necklace and new haircut. random question: what lipstick are you wearing?
Score on the fox tank.
Really cute.

I love it! I was hoping you would go in this direction - it looks amazing on you! Great choice!
YES!!!!!!! i love love love the hair! you look like a way cooler alexa with a better taste for actual vintage.
Your hair looks fantastic!! It's very fitting for you and I love the slight wave. Also, I agree about the importance of what you wear to a haircut--I wore my favorite dress to a new salon on Friday for my own hair appointment. :)
Super cute! You look adorable!
Cute haircut!! :) I love your top!
Love the haircut! I may have to pin it for future hair inspiration!!
Cute! All of you girls getting your hair cut have me wanting to cut mine off.
Yay for foxes! (Even though they do eat the family chickens...)
I love the length of that cut and how wavy and easy-going it looks, so effortless! I think about my outfit when I go get a haircut too!

It looks so cute! And the cute factor is echoed in that fantastic fox top! Some of the cutest stuff comes from Foever 21 but it makes me sad that they just dont last :( Get what you pay for I guess?

That top is simply adorable.
love the hair cut, dear! who did you end up going to?
also: you're totally right that what you wear to see a new hair person matters -- something about which I should remind myself when I'm tempted to go see even my deeply beloved stylist in sweats!
I LOVE IT! It looks phenomenal on you, so easy and sassy and perfect. Yay for new haircuts!
Em!!! I LOVE it!!! This cut suits you SO well! I love that it's long enough that you can tie it up, but short enough to be easy and low-key. Gahhh i have haircut envy!
