***Nashville (the show) 11/11***

I was hoping Scarlett would get a bob or something. I think that would look cute on her. The pixie look is okay, but I'm not loving it.

I'm glad Juliette finally remembered what really happened and is getting help. Hopefully this will be her rock bottom. I felt so sorry for Layla but loved her performance. How cruel is it that Luke is keeping the truth from her. That's a terrible thing to do to a human being. He's crazy if he thinks that's going to stay secret. No way will Colt hold on to that secret--he's made that clear. Luke can't keep him sequestered away forever.

I knew Rayna would show up at the bar and was glad that she did. No big surprise there.

I feel so heartbroken for Avery.

Looks like next week we get to see more of Maddie behaving badly. I've about had it with that girl.

Explanation for Scarlett's new do. I like it way better than those tangled extensions.

Wanna know why I cut it all off?
When I was four years old, I asked my mother; "Are there heaters in Heaven?"
I had just been diagnosed with end stage nephroblastoma, after several visits to a GP who denied anything was wrong and dubbed my parents "paranoid." I'd overheard the doctors telling my family that the only hope of saving me, was an experimental treatment that might kill me anyway. But without it I had maybe two weeks left. The hospital was cold. I'd never felt air conditioning before.
Life in the White Palace (Granddad’s nickname for hospital) meant I got to grow up surrounded by children just like me. We were mostly bald, all tubed, taped, bandaged up and stitched back together. We were all missing parts, some obvious like eyes or legs, others more hidden, like lungs and kidneys. Those who still could, tip-toed around like little fairies because chemotherapy had destroyed the muscles in our legs and it hurt to put our heels on the floor. But we were all together, so no one's appearance came into question. No one got laughed at or teased. We were all we knew.
And then I got really lucky. I survived, my hair grew back and I got strong again. I look relatively normal on the outside, but on the inside, I am still the same stitched back together little creature, in a world where people are judged so harshly for the way they look. It has always been completely incomprehensible to me. How can people think there's time for that?
I was really inspired when I heard a story about a little girl who said she couldn't be a princess because she didn't have long hair, and I wanted her, and others like her to know that's not what makes a princess, or a warrior, or a superhero. It's not what makes you beautiful either. It's your insides that count… even if you happen to be missing half of them.
Every scar tells a story, every baldhead, every dark circle, every prosthetic limb, and every reflection in a mirror that you might not recognize anymore. Look deeper than skin, hair, nails, and lips. You are who you are in your bones. That is where you have the potential to shine the brightest from. It is where your true beautiful self lives.
Thank you ABC network and particularly our creator, Callie Khouri for letting me change Scarlett's hair, and my team, family and friends for helping me make the decision. If it makes even one person think twice about judging another, then in some small way, the world is better.
Self-esteem takes a lot longer to grow back than hair.

I was just going to post this.  I am not a fan of Scarlett, something about her really bugs me. I think I am a fan of Clare Bowen ! <3

I loved what Scarlett (Clare) wrote. That was beautiful. I had no idea she had been through that (gosh I can relate to that not being able to walk due to heel pain during chemo--brings back some hard memories). Knowing the whole story, I really appreciate her haircut. Also, I'm one of the few people that like Scarlett and find her adorable as a character.

Do you think Juliette will be in "treatment" for awhile, since she's in treatment IRL?

I guess we fans should be careful what we wish for! So many of us wanted Deacon and Rayna together and now they are called boring. Guess the powers-that-be need to break them up again.
