An Accidental Non Scale Victory???

I have this thing...or maybe this hang up...where I have to get my haircut at the same place by the same person. I've been going there since I was 3 and I won't let anyone else touch my hair.  The problem is a haircut costs around $50 and is 1hr away. So what do I usually do?? Welllllll I usually cut my own bangs.

Yup...you read that right.  I cut my own bangs.  Whenever I tell people that they always gasp and say I'm crazy.  But...I'm not spending $50 every month to have my bangs trimmed. I usually have the side swoopy bangs and they are super easy to cut myself.  Just cut them on an angle and there you go...perfect bangs everytime.

Errrrrr.........almost everytime.

I decided it was time for a trim on Sunday night and I did my usual thing...only...I cut them WAY too short.  I had a mini panic attack and an "OH MY GODDDDDDD" moment.  I was freaking out...I never mess up and I totally just pulled a Hannah Horvath.



Hahaha I swear that is exactly what I did and said. "It's not thaaaat bad."

So long story short, I cut my own bangs and messed them up and turned side swoop bangs into straight across bangs.  I have ALWAYS wanted straight across bangs but never thought I could pull them off because my face was too fat.  I always assumed that bangs like that would make your face look fuller...in fact...I even blogged about how I wanted to get this specific haircut once I lost some weight and my face thinned out. Problem is...I got the haircut way too soon!  I wasn't prepared for this change!


My Accidental Bangs


The haircut I've always wanted!!

The question I have for everyone is...

If you go to the "My Chunky Journey" page above, you will see towards the bottom that there is a Non Scale Victory list and on that list is to get my favorite hairstyle with bangs...which would be what I accidentally got.  So should I mark this off the list?  I personally think that the style makes my face look fatter and I don't really like it, however, everyone else loves it.  Should I mark this off or wait until I have a less fat face and can pull it off?  What do you think?  It would be pretty cool to mark something off my list that happened by accident!!!  (But only if I really should mark it off)


P.S.- Killllling it at the gym this week!
