Although I admit I was half serious when I claimed to be leaving my hair long because Sarah Michelle Gellar was too, it is the complete and total truth that I had no idea when I chopped 9 inches off last week that she had taken scissors to hers also. While my hair length is, of course, not newsworthy, tales of the Buffster’s new hairstyle have popped up on all the fluff news sites. Creating controversy out of thin (h)air, these “news” writers are doing compare/contrast exercises between Buffy’s chop and Felicity’s surprise crop that almost killed that show. Silly people. It was more news that Sarah had grown hers out and I didn’t see any commentary on that. Her hair is nowhere near shorn. However, this new cut may bring back the plentiful requests for Buffy-like hairdos from the 1998 era. (P.S. Minor spoiler: Joss says a certain ex-boyfriend is coming back.)
