Every year growing up, the last two weeks of August always consisted of two things. A 2-hour trek to Target to buy a brand new backpack and school supplies, and a trip to the hair salon for a new look.
For those of you who have met me, you have probably gotten to see my hair on the longest state it’s ever been. I started growing it out for my own wedding, then decided to keep it long for a Lauren’s wedding this past May. I really did start to love it, although I usually ended up throwing it up in a messy ponytail, because I have no patience for hair styling. The thing with me and my hair is, I get bored really fast.
I decided that going into the new school year (and yes, I’m quite aware I am no longer a student, nor am I a teacher), I would revisit the traditions of years past and treat myself to a whole new look. I wanted to go for something chic and versatile, with little maintenence, that still maintained a sense of professionalism. I took the liberty of assuming that my clients didn’t want me showing up to coordinate their elegant weddings in a mohawk!!
So we went from this, the old look:

To this look…..”the Gwenyth bob”:

It’s day 3 of the new bob and I’m loving it!! A big shout-out to my stylist, Rigo Ortiz at Studio 26 (who also does amazing wedding hair!), for rocking the shears!!
