Coming Full Circle

Nearly a year ago, one of my first photos was a test looking up from my keyboard. When I reached for my phone this morning, this was on the screen. (I had just taken my hair down and it was looking crazier than usual. But the fact that I didn't notice until I saw it on the screen does make me wonder how much of life I see through my hair. ;-) )

How Long?

In the interest of getting this out of the way this week, I realized that none of my photos really give a good idea of how long my hair is, and so the post about cutting it doesn't make a lot of sense. It's tough to find an angle that I can get myself that does the length justice, but here's the best I can do. (Khaentlahn and I also had a conversation about me having to show more than just my face eventually...) I really don't intentionally pull my hair in my face for these (I can hear my grandmother, now, telling me to pull it back), but it seems to just happen... [Ed: I don't intend to look pissed in all of them, either, but that seems to happen, too. ;-) So here's a semi-smiling one with my hair pulled back that I like less to try and show that I am sometimes happy.]

Because the length's still not really clear, here's a guest photo of me at Candlemas (which I borrowed from Khalidah) that shows the length (just at my waist in the back) a little better:

Hair Cut

Time for another self portrait. This is what Jenn looks like with shoulder length hair.

No, I didn't cut it (deep breaths), it's a trick of the way it's laying and the size of the picture. Totally unintentional. I had it in a braid and took it out--then I took these pictures, and when I looked at them bigger, voila, short hair! (I often end up taking photos semi-blind--the screen really doesn't show things well, esp. outside.)

Huh, looks kinda cool, maybe I *should* cut it... ;-)
