For months I have been unhappy with my hair as it seems to have changed texture with its change to white and my intake of methotextrate (a chemo drug) for RA. With the wind constantly blowing in Corpus Christi, my hair is further ruffled.
At physical therapy on Friday, my physical therapist Pam suggested that I "embrace the curl." Following that appointment, I had my hair cut. Dee has been cutting my hair for the past 18 years. She agreed that the texture had changed and suggested letting the top curl--by cutting it different lengths. So here I am.
It is a little difficult to adjust to the new image in the mirror--after 60 years of smooth hair. This is my new reality and so I am announcing it here.
With my daughter AE and husband CB's help, I got a new picture for FB and my profile here. CB took the photo and AE lightened it for me.

Thank you so much, Doxy!!
You look absolutely beautiful.
Thank you, Robin!
I totally understand - but honestly I think you look wonderful. I hope you feel wonderful, too!
Thanks, Terri!
It's hard to get used to something new, but I think you look great! I've been letting my hair grow for several weeks, but now that we've had a week of "summer" weather (in the 80s) before spring actually arrives (tomorrow), I'll have to be strong to leave it long and not cut it off to be cool. Will you be my inspiration?
I love it!
Jan, I think your new hair cut looks really good! I wish I could see you in person!
It's lovely and shows off your pretty face and even prettier smile perfectly.
Your hair is just beautiful. I saw this new pic on the RevGals Group header and thought, "Look how beautiful Jan looks in that picture!" Now I read this.
I, too, embraced my curl, when I left high school and went to college. I'd spent my formative years in Houston (!)trying to straighten what God made curly...and I gave up, in that new place and with all new people. 25 years later and I've never looked back.
oh Jan it's lovely, frames your face so delicately and shows off that wide warm smile!
lovely!!!
I am overwhelmed with your compliments and support. Thank you very much--that's just what I needed!
You're so beautiful.
