My Neck Was Hot So I Chopped My Hair Off

The last time I had my hair this short was during my sophomore year in college. Over the years, I’ve been on a mission to grow it out and have “titty hair” (hair that’s long enough to cover your tatas in case one wanted to be a mermaid for Halloween). But then one day (a couple weeks ago), I realized that I was over the ‘long locks’ look and wanted a shorter cut to better reflect my low maintenance style. And so I scheduled a hair appointment this past Saturday at Fiddleheads, an awesome salon I found online located in the Dupont Circle area of D.C. that specializes in curly hair cuts. My stylist, Vicky, was so warm and welcoming when I sat in her chair. I told her that I wanted a layered, short look that would grow out nice and man, did she deliver. My head feels soooo much lighter and with the weight of almost 5 inches of hair chopped off, my curls are more buoyant and defined. I love it. My hair has personality now :)

^^ Super Cute Business Card!!

If you live in the D.C. area and have curly hair, I highly recommend a visit to the Fiddleheads salon! Since moving back down to the DMV, I’ve been bouncing around from salon to salon looking for a place that felt like a good fit energy wise for me and my hair… But Fiddleheads is now my go-to salon for curly haircuts after having such a great experience this past weekend!

P.S. If you’re a curly girl looking for a salon in your area with curly hair stylists, I suggest using the Deva Curly Stylist Finder.
