A friend of mine has given me a voucher so I am getting my hair cut on Saturday at a poshy kind of place, for half price!  Anyway, it's been a long time since I had a restyle (I've actually been growing it out for ages) so I'm looking to see:
what do you like? what doesn't need a lot of attention, you can just get out of the shower and brush it? what styles are ok with being pg and hair stopping and starting (if any LOL) I'm thinking I might go for shoulder length with a small V look (longer at back than at the sides), keep my fringe grown out, and a little bit of layering (on top) at the back. -------------  |

LOL you won't like what I do, then! I get my hair cut so that it is about 2 cm long on top, and shorter/shaped around my head and ears and straight across the back of the neck ('cause I hate whispy bits on me) then I spike it! Finally got it done last week, and I'm so much happier. ------------- Becca, mum of 2 girls & 3 boys |

That's what I've got. Not a huge noticeable V shape, but definitely longer at the back than on my shoulders. And my layers probably start midway down my ears (not too noticeable, but just to give it a good shape around my face, and so it falls nicely at the back.) It's manageable, but I like to blowdry and straighten it so it takes a while in the mornings! Well, every 3rd morning! |

| I have a just on chin length bob, longer at the front than the back, though not by much. Fringe is long so is often just clipped off to the side. Easy peasy to maintain! |

Oh sorry got distracted while I was typing that. I meant to say "for a while"... I think I once did the grocery shopping speedy-quick after Krystiana was born but otherwise we're talking at least all of this year! ------------- |

Well, make sure you enjoy yourself!
Oy Chovy! Make sure your wife gets more breaks from the girls! It'll be worth it - even an hour out by herself will recharge her batteries and make her feel so much better. You might even get a little something out of it later on ------------- Becca, mum of 2 girls & 3 boys |

Oh nice place I know of a hairdresser there I used to work with his wife. Enjoy your time away for the girls (but I know you'll be thinking of them the whole time). ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

My only (small) concern is with Kryssi but since she has more solids now than bm, he'll be able to give her something to eat - even if it's a bikkie! Today she stole a biscuit off me today, ate it all (fortunately it was a wine biscuit), then had equivalent of 6 icecubes of solids and a feed after that I was out and hadn't taken anything else lol ------------- |
