now i know how joan of arc felt

i've lost the will to blog. and i'm embarrassed about how many blog posts of mine have to do with hair, but oh well. every one loves a good before and after.

before:


after:


thank you to all my blog friends for helping me reach for my michelle williams dreams.

angela hardison said...

it looks downright amazing.

cara. said...

duh.

glad to see you still lurking around the blogosphere. keep it up.

abby you are stunning. and i dont just go throwing around stunning. what i wouldnt give to get a cut as amazing as that without looking like the he-she that no one invited to the party.

and i know i tell you this too often but those teeth of yours. gorgeous.

about losing the will to blog. i'll help you find it. i'll even offer a reward. red vines? maybe i'll find mine in the process... love to you!

remi said...

I'm loving how appropriate your before and after are. just like the infomercials. content smile, blurry picture in before and BAM! super excited, gorgeous great lighting picture after.

very well done.

AND, i love it. michelle who.

remi said...

and, I feel obligated to let you know my goal of 5 books this year is completed after ONLY 5 months, thank you very much.

embarrassment, I have found, is the greatest motivator.

think about it.

kate said...

how could you NOT?!

Jenna Eve said...

Gorgeous hair. You are very pretty. Keep blogging.

Unknown said...

whhhhhhat! amaz. such a fun and fab change!

teamBoo said...

Never grow your hair out again! NEVERRRRRR!!!

kate said...

p.s. i came back agin, to see the the great abby sharp hair cut of 2011. (you'll have gals flocking to their stylists like the rachel-on-friends-hair-cut-trend- of the-90's)

and i re-read about the lack of willpower to blog. DON"T QUIT. i'll cry. no really. :)

Brooke said...

wow! the first word that came to mind was stunning. you really look amazing!

Bethany said...

So, please tell me you took at LEAST 20 "after" pictures before you got this amazing shot.... or I really will go in the corner and cry....

Oh, and I feel bad for your poor "before" picture. I'm guessing that you really looked fantastic with that hairdo, too....

hanner said...

Carly said...

You look beautiful. But I don't think you couldn't if you tried. :)

Jessa said...

oh my hell.
{yes, I just swore on your blog. sorry}
You're hair is amazing.
seriously.
xo

abby said...

you are all so nice! really there's nothing like trying to take a good self portrait to make you feel like plastic surgery is a viable option.

jessa wins for funniest comment.

brittany- the shirt is actually a maxi dress from anthropologie. yay gift cards!

abby said...

oh and remi, i'm glad you caught the infomercial trick. you win a prize! (for only 4 easy payments of $14.99.)

David and Shalynna said...

Abby, you are gorgeous!!! I LOVE your haircut. It's absolutely darling and you are absolutely darling.

P.S. You are prettier than Michelle Williams.

Emily said...

Is there seriously only one comment on this? I love your hair. Gorgeous, gorgeous. Next you should show all your pretty blue dress.

abby said...

there were more comments but google went all wacko. sad!

amyegodfrey said...

Yeah, there were over 30 comments. Sad to lose them.

Jenn Kirk said...

The Michelle Williams cut looks even better on you than on her. She is a pretty lady, but has some kind of severe/austere/disapproving look happening. You're looking good -- and happy!

Jill said...

i love it! i love it! I love it!!!
AND and I LOVE ABBY!

off switch said...

michelle williams who? you look AMAZING abby!!! (ok, now read that sentence again and take me seriously this time;)

i'm so happy you took the plunge, and i hope you love it! xo.

Julie said...

I hate seeing amazing short hair like this. It always makes me want to cut mine and that would never be a good idea.

You look st-st-stunning!

Robin said...

You look amazing! And it doesn't hurt that the before shot is all out of focus and in terrible lighting :)

Jacob said...
