BYE BYE Bye Bye Beehive?

Ready for some honesty?

No?

Sorry, folks, but you're going to get it anyways.

Here's the deal.

Last October, I began Bye Bye Beehive as a journey to achieve the long, beautiful, healthy hair I've always desired.

Now, 5 months later, I'm ready to move on...

I think it may be time to say "bye bye" to Bye Bye Beehive.

When I began BBB, it was about ME.

My hair, my project, my thing I wanted to do.

Now I feel like it's more about YOU, and trying to just scramble to come up with anything to talk about.

My heart's just not in it.

And here's the thing...

though I have come up with some pretty amazing hairstyles,

I have lost confidence in myself.

I don't enjoy doing my hair the way I used to.

Trust me, when my hair was being processed all the time, I came up with some really cool styles.

I am just not motivated lately to try any more.

My hair just seems to have no life left in it.

I don't look at this as "failing."

It was definitely a learning experience.

I learned that I don't have to have crazy-big hair all the time.

I learned that I can still be beautiful without hairspray.

I learned that I've got some darn-awesome dedication...

5-months is a long time!

I've learned that LIFE IS TOO SHORT.

If your heart's not in it and you're not doing it for you,

then don't even bother.

Why would I waste one more moment of this incredible life

thinking about how I'm not having the best possible experience and doing what I really want to do?

On that note,

I know that life is not all about hair.

Heck, it's such a minor thing that really-- no one cares.

So honestly, I know that you won't HATE me because I couldn't go the whole year.

Even if I did go the whole year, who cares if I'm the "girl who went a year without doing her hair."

I mean, is that supposed to be cool?

To me, it's really not.

I want to enjoy my time, enjoy doing my hair, and enjoy the projects that I take on.

And this very moment... I'm not enjoying myself.

Now... I HAVE NOT decided which route I'm going to take.

But here me on this... it's definitely being considered.

And I'll tell you this... if I do decide to end this project now,

I will most likely be posting sweet hairstyles a lot more often,

only blow-drying my hair once in a while,

and I'll probably continue rockin' the ombre I've currently got going on.

I rather enjoy the whole hippy look I've come to adopt, and I don't plan on changing that anytime soon.
