Ch-ch-Changes

Ch-ch-Changes
Pretty soon you're gonna get a little older
Time may change me
But I can't trace time
I said that time may change me
But I can't trace time

Changes, song lyrics by David Bowie



I think every woman on the planet can relate to the need to constantly change our hairstyles, thereby changing our looks.

My changing looks through the decades:

1968
My mom's attempt to control my cowlick...slick down the bangs

1970's
Bangs? Who needs 'em!

1985
BIG hair

1990
Still had BIG hair

2007
Short

2008
Well...I wanted something different...

I'd say I got it.
Oh boy

Looks wonderful! You really didn't seem to go through and awkward stage such as myself.

Hey Diva, love the 'new' look... wait a couple of years and it will be the 'old' look and you can ch-ch-ch-change it again ;-)! Don't you just LOVE how "important" we all think our hair is?! What we really need to pay attention to is Brad and Angelina... everyone knows that. What WERE you thinkin'?!

Check you all, all edgy and now the rockstar diva. Love it!

Thanks for sharing all the other pictures, I love seeing other people's big hair phases!

I cringe looking at my own 80's big hair, let alone post them.

The new hairstyle, love !!! Very young, fun and fresh. I had it 2 years ago, and took me another 2 to grow it all back. This hairstyle sure looks funky :)

LazyTcrochet said...

I like the new do....so fun!

High Desert Diva said...

Oh Mrs French....there are many years and many hairstyles NOT represented!

Sherry said...

I love the new you! It's swimming season here, and I'm thinking of chopping off 8 inches.

That didn't sound right, did it?

Tess Kincaid said...

Great post, Diva. We can all relate to this one. I just saw a picture of me with big permed 80's hair the other day and said, "What was I thinking?" But everybody had it then!

Hey Harriet said...

Oh what a fun post! Oooh the big hair phase...hehe...gotta love it! Your new style is fab! Suits you! Super sexy Diva you are!

Love your choice of song lyrics. One of my fave Bowie songs

Sarah McBride said...

wow that is quite a difference. Your hair looks totally cute!

All of my pictures would involve some variation on "the shag" which I had throughout much of my childhood.


I think we ALL had big hair in the 80s and 90's.

Victoria said...

I think this cut is so liberating! Good Job!

Ana said...

ohhhhhhh you look *hawt* :)

littlebyrd said...

That is one of my favorite songs! Loved seeing all your looks. And the new do? I think it's totally cool!

Prairie Gothic said...

You bold girl, looks great!

GraficWorld said...

Very beautiful your Blog.Anche the arguments are interesting.

Unknown said...

Woo woo woo sexy and sassy girl work it! I love the pixie spike on you, totally adorable! You definitely have the face to carry this hair style.

Did we not all have the big poof in the 80's & 90's? I feel like I have to pitch to fix global warming due to all the Aqua Net I used back then. Scary.

All your pictures look great, I don't think I would be brave enough to show mine!

Clare said...

I love the new-do! So cute - and you'll be loving it over the summer, if summer ever gets here!

A little bit of urban chic for the high desert diva!

i like the hairstyle on the left, much better and looks more feminine than the one to the right.
