OHs noticing changes

seeing as the board is loving experiments today i thought i would do one of my own
i have had 12 inches cut off of my hair today and now i am timing how long it will take OH to notice
we are at 9 hours so far and he has just gone to work saying 'did you take off your earrings?' tonight i am going to ramp it up a bit by also colouring it and see if he notices either tomorrow
so how long does it take your OH to notice things like changing your hair?

if I had 12 inches cut off my hair he'd definitely notice.
If I go from collar-length (my normal length before I get it cut and restyled) to say chin-length, he notices. Its possibly because he changes his hair/facial growth stylings about every fortnight, so he tends to notice when folk around him have had their do's done.
Good luck on the ramp-up OP

Stop doing the housework and washing; see how long he notices before the house turns into a sh*t-tip.

I remember fitting some very expensive alloy wheels to a sports car I owned. After a week of fruitlessly waiting for my girlfriend of the time to notice, I gave up and pointed them out to her.0

DH would notice 12 inches off my hair, it's only around 12 inches long!
:rotfl::rotfl:
When I make a hair appointment now, he always comments on it afterwards.
Last time, I had to cancel as I was stuck at work and when I got home he told me "that's a nice cut"!
To be fair, I've had the same style for years, so I can't blame him for not noticing."I may be many things but not being indiscreet isn't one of them"0 -

LOL, I wouldn't have noticed them either.

i'm with your girlfriend there - I probably wouldn't have noticed if you'd changed the whole car, unless it was a completely different colour too :rotfl:.0 -
If it were me I'd probably notice but not make anything of it, after all, not my bloomin hair is it, it gets cut from time to time and isn't a cause for anything special. I get that some people might want validation of it for whatever reason, but ultimately it's nowt to be causing a song & dance about.
