[spilth]: December 2013

after growing my hair out for the last couple of years i reached a point where i had had enough of it. i dont pay to get it cut and my lack of experience or enthusiasm for styling and stuff ended up with it just being a total drag.

so i decided to shave it off.

once i got this idea in my head it was hard to let it go. i changed opinions on it a lot but i knew deep down i really wanted to do it and i am at a point in my life where i am confident and happy enough that i wouldnt regret it if i ended up hating it. i can always wear a hat and hair grows pretty quickly! well mine does...

after i decided i definitely wanted to do it, i thought an act so crazy should at least be raising money for something!! i spoke to a few people and did some research and eventually decided that mental health is such an important part of everyones lives and is often overlooked or stigmatised so my money should go towards Scottish Association for Mental Health. and once id chosen them, it all seemed to make sense.

James and Kate and Katie and Findlay came over and Kate, who had already bagsied shaving priveledges, was very excitable. and then she got to work...

i am overjoyed!! i cant wait to get my hair dye out and play and see what kind of reaction i get! its probably a weird thing to say but ive not had a hairstyle in a long time that made me feel as good as this one does.
