A Hair Story in Pictures
Like I mentioned on my About Me page, I change my hair a lot. Allow me to demonstrate.

July 2006. I think this was the shortest I’ve ever had it.
August 2006. Hi faux-hawk. I miss you.

April 2009. This is as close as I’ve been to my natural color in a long time (this was in April 2009 and the last time I’d colored it before this was in October 2008). So I think I have light brown hair naturally now (it was a lot lighter when I was younger). Sorry about the weird shot; I didn’t want to exploit my darling niece on my blog so I cropped her out.

Dad and I vote on the one with Roger (funny you chose that one with the caption you wrote…), I like the one in the car – after your marathon?? and I really like the original spikey hair with Lizzy and Brianna. But, not the faux hawk and not any dark color, rich auburn or not! The one with Rob on the couch – you are the spitting image of Mary Wright! However, I think you are beautiful enough and stunning enough to wear them all! No prejudice here however!
I wondered which one you would like! I knew you wouldn’t like the faux-hawk…and remember how you paid for that haircut from Jason? hehe. Yeah, I love the one with Roger too. And the one with Dad. They’re pretty much the same, just one is curled.
Thanks for loving me through all my hairstyles and for giving me genetics to pull them all off! Love ya guys!
You so rock every single one of these hairstyles! Not everyone can look great as a brunette AND a blonde… but you totally do! I’m loving the short hairstyles. I recently chopped all my hair off and love it! You are just too cute!
I just checked out your blog – love your short ‘do!
I like blonde best with side bangs. Esp the one where rob is wearing his green hat.
I knew you’d like the green hat.
Whoa. Gorgeous!!! It seems like your hair must grow fast??? There are so many changes here but you look about the same age…how many years does this span over? It’s crazy that you can pull off ALL of these looks. I’m a wimp with my hair. My favs: photo with the black flower, photo with your bro, short hair in the car + your vday photo…but seriously all of them are beeeeautiful! You look so confident + happy…love it!
This spans over…5 or 6 years? The first time I went dark was in 10th grade, I think, but I started getting highlights in 6th grade [totally normal, I know] and cut off about 10″ without telling my parents in 7th grade. It all began then.
Hi Teri!
You look fabulous with the “rich auburn” haircut!
I change my hair a lot too… I found you through HEAB btw…
A fellow hair changer! Welcome!
Thanks for stopping by!
You should be crowed Hair Changing Queen. You look great in all the styles, but I think I’m a fan of the longer, feminine locks. What’s your natural color?
hahahaha. I LOVE that title. I think I should get a sash of some sort.
Natural color…um…I think it’s a light brown. I have a picture that is close to it. I’ll find it and put it up.
Oh, Turkey, I miss you. Naturally, I vote for the faux-hawk. Your new site looks great!
Ah, Messy Jessy!!! I’m so happy you are reading my blog. I’m also so happy you like the faux-hawk. You inspire me.
Holy moly, how does your hair grow so fast!?! Seriously, it takes mine forever to grow and I could never change it so much and be able to grow it back out. You look great with all styles- I love the picture of you with full bangs and long brown hair (I’m obviously biased towards full bangs) holding your puppy. I also love how it is now, and the one with the black flower head band.
My hair does grow really fast and I don’t know why. I LOVED having full bangs! It’s instant style even if the rest of me looks dumpy.
if only we could all be so lucky…….jerk.
Love you too Ashface.
Girl, you are GORGE! I love you as a blonde, but I’ve got to say that one of my favorites was the brown hair with blunt bangs. So cute!
Can you pass over some of gutso to me?? I’ve had long, blonde hair since I was um……13. And I’m now almost 23. I went brunette for a month when I was 15 but changed it right back. And since then the biggest changes I’ve made were low-lights and bangs :/
I love your blog, by the way =) Can’t wait to keep reading!
Aw, thank you Gracie!
You make a GORGEOUS blonde! But I bet you could totally rock brown hair or even a rich auburn. I figure it’s just hair and you can always change it if you have a good enough stylist.
I checked out your blog too; I’ll be following! Love your layout.
Sheesh honestly, who can pull off so many hair colors/styles? Only you! I am jealous! Loving your blog by the way. And I love your current hair do, it so fits you!
haha! Thanks Linds!
Just found your site. . .luv it! All of those hairstyles are DARLING! But I do love that new short ‘do!
I am thinking of doing the same. I have not had my hair as many colors as you have, but I have had just as many styles! I call it my “evil twin” when someone sees a pic of me that doesn’t look like I happen to look at the moment! 
-
hahaha! “Evil twin” – I LOVE it! I’m totally going to start referring to my non-current hairstyle self with that name.
Darling!!! I was showing you off to my friend Jessi at work, and she had some questions.
A) How long (time gaps) are between the pictures?
B) Are any of those extensions??? (gorgeous!!!!)
C) By the way, we def vote for the long dark, Christmas with pup and hub pic!!! MODEL!!!!!! <3<3<3
A) I will update the page with dates. I tried to order them chronologically but it was a total pain so I gave up.
B) No extensions baby!
C) Oh, thanks! I loved that cut and color too. I’m thinking of trying RED with my short hair. What do you and Jessi think??
LOVE the gray dress in the last picture where is it from? And I am very jealous that you can pull off so many hair styles/colors! I can’t pick a favorite but I do love the auburn color with the bangs. PS…if your bro is single why the ring?
It’s from Forever 21, can you believe it?
That happens to be a rather inconvenient picture with my brother, but one of my favorites.
It’s a long story, but yes, he’s single. 
What fun!! You’re awesome : )
Love all the hair styles!! My hair doesn’t grow (I’ve been trying to grow it for about 8 years!) so I can’t do this but now I’ll live vicariously through you haha
aw thanks! It is really fun to change it up!
lol I love your hair! Always looking good!
I just stumbled onto your blog from HEAB’s… I don’t usually comment but I just had to say I LOVED your hairstyles, WOW! I change mine alot as well, but you honestly looked amazing in each one – definitely whats on the inside is shows on the out because u r gorgeous! look forward to reading your blog ~
thanks for commenting! And thank you so much for your sweet words! I love hearing that I’m not the only one who changes my hair a LOT.
What Teri?? You have the best hair eva…I don’t know of ANYONE who colors it that much and still has it look as heathly as when they were 7. My sister’s a hairdresser and doesn’t let me do mine any too close or drastic in fear of “damage”. What product do you use…share your secrets…please??
And if I must choose just 1, I pick long and blonde.
hahaha. You are nice.
And thanks for picking a favorite. Long and blonde is also one of my favorite looks.
I use Pureology shampoo and conditioner and various styling products depending on the length: Big Sexy Hair volumizer, some sort of heat spray (some olive oil spray or something from Sally Beauty) and then just a pomade/wax to finish.
I think the best tip I have is to not wash your hair everyday! Seriously, don’t do it! When my hair was long, I usually washed 2-3x a week. I didn’t even wet it so I didn’t have to blowdry it. I would wear it straight the first day after blowdrying, then curl the next day with a curling iron, then a ponytail, then wash. If it gets greasy (which is usually a sign of overwashing), try a dry shampoo. Psssst! is a good, cheap one I found at Walgreens. Also, I rarely use a flat iron.
Now that it’s short, I have to wet it everyday or else I look like Kate Gosselin but I still don’t shampoo everyday.
You probably know all these tips since your sister is a hairdresser, but it’s what works for me!
First of all, your hair is ALWAYS so freaking cute. I love. I also have the same obsession with constantly changing my hair, only the last year I’ve had really similar styles.
Anyway, this is the CUTEST page. That’s all.
You have AMAZING hair now!!
wow! you’re gorgeous! I LOVE the faux-hawk!!! I also like you as a brunette with bangs. very sophisticated. My fav is the first picture: long & blond!
I wish my hair would grow faster! haha
thank you!
my hair does grow really fast which is great, but when i’m trying to keep it short, it can kind of be a pain!
Just checked this out for the first time and it made me so nostalgic for all of my old hairstyles! You rocked every style and I love that someone has the same attention span for hair as me. I love the ease of short hair, but I’m trying to grow it again – and your pics made me lust after a rich auburn color – gorgeous!
I’m been debating about the same thing too…I love this short cut but I’m craving a ponytail lately. Who craves ponytails???
Oh my gosh…I just found your blog and think I am OBSESSED. You are the cutest and I am so happy to see that someone is as obsessed with food as I am! I’m specifically talking your mini cadbury’s in the mail. Hello! A gift from your mom or a gift from Heaven?
And I think you’re gorgeous every way, but I think I like auburn and long.
well aren’t you nice??
haha, I’m so glad you appreciate my love for cadbury mini eggs. They are absurdly good. mmm….I want some right now! Thanks for the hair vote too!
You lucky duck – you look great with any style or color! I just found your blog (from Fitnessista) and I can’t wait to read more about your food obsession and exercise.
Welcome! and thank you.
Love all the styles! I can’t keep my hair the same for very long.
Love them all besides the super, super short cut.
Aw, I love the hair stories! You pretty much have awesome hair no matter the cut or color…not something everyone can have. PS-love the grey dress at the bottom. Looks like something adorable from Banana.
Thanks! Guess what – that dress is actually from Forever 21. Can you believe it?
Oh I love your pics of all the “colors” I also love coloring my hair from light shades of brown to aubrun to dark red and high/low lights but have always wanted to go blonde and never have even though my natural hair color is strawberry blonde….. So my question is do you home color yourself or always use a stylist/salon to color it??? I have done both myself and wondered ??
Also your hair looks very healthy ….I also only wash my hair 2x a week and everyhair stylist has said it is super soft and super healthy;)
I think you’re a lucky ducky because your complexion goes beautifully with both the darker and lighter colors. How fun! I adore that rich brown color, but also love the cut and color of your most recent pic. I have long hair now, and since my wedding is over (sadface) I am now free to cut it and I’m thinking BOB! Love your blog, btw. And your puppy.
YOUR FAUX HAWK IS AMAZING. so amazing it needed all capital letters.
hahahaha. Thanks!
ahh I have considered doing this too! Except you look so great in every style & I am a little embarrassed of some of mine! Even though I like them all, I do love your bangs with longer hair. But seriously, you could literally do anything & look fantastic.
Also, your boxer is so cute! My family has one & I grew up with one with those same colors. They’re such great dogs
Hi Teri,
I recently started reading your blog, which i LOVE, by the way! Your short haircut is awesome and I’d like to go for something similar but I have pretty thick shoulder-length hair with a natural wave to it (only in the back though – it’s weird). Anyway, I was wondering if your hair was fine, or thick? Do you have to straighten it to get that look? Random questions, I know, but I’m trying to get an idea whether the short ‘do would work for my hair type. Thanks!
PS: Love the gray dress, I have a similar one from Banana!
Agh! I don’t think I ever replied to you! sorry! My hair is very straight. It’s thin, but I have a lot of it. I very rarely use a straightener – only when I want it really piecey and kind of edge, ya know?
Hope this helps!
LOVE LOVE november 2005- gorgeous!
I confess I am the same way about my hair…but how do you get yours to grow back so fast????
I have no secret! Right now I’m begging it to grow and it seems so slow!
You have the cutest hair every single time! I tend to stick with only 1 or 2 styles – I wish I was as brave as you!
PS I love the faux-hawk! I want one so badly!
Seriously, the faux hawk was so fun!
So jealous that you can pull off blonde and brown so well – they both look so natural on you. The boyf would love for me to dye my hair blonde, but I have tried adding blonde to my hair and it just washed me out.
Found your blog today – I think you’re super fun so you’re definitely getting added to my google rss. Yay!
Oh thanks! Sometimes I’ve gotten a weird blonde that totally washes me out, but I do feel lucky to be able to pull off both blonde and brown!
You’ve got hair guts! I loved Sept/Oct 09. You are in a dark purple shirt. I’m actually saving this pic for when I decide to go shorter!
Wow! You can really pull off a whole range of styles and colors and they look great. I’m going to bookmark your page so when I need a new hairstyle, I can save looking at the books/mags in the salons and just come here.
don’t know if anyone has told you, but you look a lot like julia roberts =)
I have been told that before and I’m so flattered! It makes my day when people tell me that because I think she is beautiful!
You are BEAUTIFUL no matter what color or length your hair is! Really!
thank you!!!!
I love it that you have changed your hairstyle so many times, you’re lucky that all styles fit you! I especially love the faux-hawk, very cute
I used to change my hairstyle a lot until this year when I found my perfect fit, I don’t think I’ll change this for a long time – maybe add some highlights but that’s it
!!!! HOW are you so gorgeous with every. single. hairstyle? totally in awe
i also wanted to say hi as a fellow nc blogger. your site seems like a lot of fun – i’ll definitely be back!
