You know in the movies when the actress is pretending to be someone else and has a wig on with a bobbed cut? You know how she pulls the wig off later to reveal long beautiful tresses underneath? That's how I feel. I feel like I'm wearing a short wig and my real hair is hiding underneath.
Poor Merril, he's great. He's told me 900 million times that my hair looks fantastic. Each compliment is heart-felt and genuine. The problem is, I'm not feeling it yet! He said today, "So don't tie your self-confidence to your hair." I thought to myself, "What?!? That's what I've got going for me!" So while I'm trying to figure out my new do, I'm trying to appear self-confident and cute.
But inside, I'm feeling kind of lumpy. And eeks! I have to go get my driver's license renewed next week!! My awkwardness is going to be captured on my driver's license for the next 5 years. I'd better grow some confidence by then.

you rock the short hair look. It does take some time to get used to having short hair, but it's fun to have a short style. And remember, you can always grow it out again later if you feel like it.
Maybe you can convince them to use this picture for your dr. lic.! It looks great! I love it, it brings out your gorgeous eyes.
YES! This picture is GREAT - I think you are crazy for doubting yourself - did I mention this picture looks great?!
(Before I saw the picture I was going to suggest getting it trimmed up by a trained hair-cutter, because I thought maybe that was the problem, BUT it looks so good that I am not going to suggest that anymore)
It is really cute! I have the same mental block when it comes to my hair. I just don't have the ability other women have to make their hair look fantastic. You have mastered it outwardly since your hair is super cute! Just keep taking pictures of it so your brain can get used to the fact that you look great too! You'll feel confident after a while.
