Okay I lied… this is not the post where I will be showing you our Xi’an digs. That’s hopefully coming soon! Instead, this blog is dedicated to my blonde locks. I started growing out my hair upon arriving in China back in the fall of 2014. Kristen thought it would give me “edge”… whatever that means.

This was me the night we boarded the plane for China…

This was me 2.5 years later, sporting mad flow. (note – I had already cut off 7 inches a couple of months before this pic)

But after moving to a new city, change was in the air… it was time for a new look. So a couple of weeks ago, I made the change with some help from a few friends!

Finished product… Elise didn’t even recognize me!

The buzz cut has been nice; plus I don’t use nearly as much shampoo or conditioner 🙂
