Haircuts!

Before Pictures on the Left and After Photos on the Right.

This is an airy/bobbed long-layered haircut with a tail.

Here we have a simple very long-layered haircut.

Right out of my garage, please excuse the background.. *te-he*

Sorry, I forgot to take before pictures. I must have cut 4 inches from the bottom, so you can imagine how long her hair was before it was cut and curled. 

I hope you all enjoy this, if you have any questions or comments, please post them below.

Ciao! ;)
