Hair Anxiety...

So I've been growing my hair out for years and I LOVE having long hair. The problem is, though, that the weight of my hair has been giving my a lot of really bad headaches lately. So I decided I am going to cut my hair. And I mean actually cut my hair.. Not just a trim. I still have 9 days before my appt but I'm already really nervous.. lol I don't really think I look that good with shorter hair, but I really need to do this for my poor head.

This is how much I think I'm going to cut off.. But obviously straighter..
