the "big girl" haircut

i remember that time when marissa decided that she was going to grow up by getting a "big girl" haircut. this is where the memory gets a little blurry- i've always been obsessed with seeing people get their hair cut so i very well could have been the one who convinced marissa to cut her entire ponytail off.

this shows how much power i've always had in our relationship... hehe xo

either way, that moment changed her life forever. never again has she had semi-wavy or what marissa and i would call PERFECT hair. something happened when she cut that ponytail off. it's like her hair suddenly went through puberty and it immediately turned into a ball of curliness.

she now spends way too much money twice a year on a chemical straightener that helps her to have that same hair she had on that fateful "big girl" haircut day.

wanna know something even more disturbing? our mom still has the ponytail saved in a special drawer in her dresser. who knows what she does with it when we're away. knowing my mom, there's a possibility that she sleeps with it at night or something.

i kid.

but the ponytail does still exist to this day!

umm so I'm kinda curious about the deleted comment Janelle. Was it only G rated? Because G rated is the only grade on this blog.
