Everything in your life changes when you become a mommy. It stands to reason then that, while it may have seemed like a huge deal to cut three inches off your hair before babies, that sort of "transformation" is a piece of cake after you've already given up most nights out, silk dresses that can't survive spit-up, and dozens of other routines you once cherished and held dear.
