  1. oh Honey-child, I adore you. What a perfect post for the day I go "Bronde" Look at me – I'm not even willing to let go of the "onde" I feel your struggle. Thank you for being real and honest…and beautiful child of God – no matter the hair color.

  2. Sarah,
    What a pleasure for me to have ehhh introduced to you via your blog. I had my “hair crisis” in February 2011. I have always loved long hair. It helps me feel more feminine….I wear lots of jeans, shorts, and t-shirts I go to the hair dresser about three or four times a year…until recently. I have been on the prowl for someone to see my hair and facial features and go…Oh, you need this style. That’s just it, I had long all one length hair. I was bored. Then right before vacation to Costa Rica in Feb. I told my relatively new stylist I want this look from a hair magazine. Much to my sad surprise, she cut my hair above my shoulders, layered it very short, and I really felt like a boy!!! Even my ten yr old son and 7 yr old daughter felt bad for me. When I sensed their dismay…I was immediately reminded by the Holy Spirit that my identity is not in my hair. I am the same mommy. I love you the same. my feelings are the same. My heart is the same. I know it has been months now, but do post an update!! Refinement is not easy, but I am so appreciative that we serve a God who does not give up on us and reminds me…less of me, more of HIM. Love, Lori from Austin, TX
