Ugh - why did I get bangs?

I have not had bangs since high school. Just long blond hair - all one length. So - I can't tell you what possessed me to have long angled side bangs cut into my hair. I thought perhaps I would grow to love the new cut, others do. However, in the past two weeks, I have just become convinced that I look like Peg from Lady and the Tramp.

Also I have serious flashbacks to an incident when I was six. I was working on a masterpiece, and my bangs kept getting in the way. So I grabbed some scissors and loped them off. I was, of course, spanked and put to bed. Evidently pictures were scheduled or some such nonsense. But I understand the need, my fingers itch to again rid myself of this burden. How do women live with this madness?
