Summer Hair

On Saturday I took a mental health afternoon.  I did some pleasure reading, took a little spin around Target for some toiletries and household organizational items, and went to my local Aveda salon.  I got my hair cut and highlighted.  It's been a while since I've had highlights, but I thought a lighter look would be nice for summer.  Extra bonus: I got to smell delicious Aveda products all through my 15 mile long run on Sunday.

In the past year or so I've had long hair and a short pixie and several sort of in between cuts as I've been starting to grow my hair back out.  While they all have their advantages and their drawbacks, I really love having an inverted bob even though it does require some additional upkeep and daily styling time.  

Do any of you tend to go lighter or shorter for the spring and summer months?
