happy about my new haircut ta da (my new haircut)

My little sister has her cosmetology license (and a brand new 5-week-old handsome baby boy with red hair).

I held him while she gave me a cut with layers. I think it’s safe to say that I’m ready to have another baby (so sweet!).

Thank you, Kathryn! I totally love my new ‘do…and I love you too.

I decided to dye it

A few nights ago I dreamt that all of my hair was turning gray. I couldn’t decide if I should dye it…or leave it all silver and sparkling.

I think I dreamt about that because I’ve been pondering getting older (and also because I subconsciously totally want to do something new to my hair).

Did you know that I’ve only been to a REAL salon once in my life? I won a makeover contest in 2007 and got flown out to Santa Monica where I got my hair cut and styled & my wardrobe re-dazzled.

I LOVED my hair like that – really loved it. But guess how long it took for Mr. Beverly Hills to get it like that? About 2 hours. TWO. Um – yeah – that’s not happening in real life.

All this to say, I’m feeling kind of blah about my hair right now. It’s too…something. Too long? Maybe. Too brown? Maybe. Too frizzy? For definitely sure.

I need a little guidance. Cut it? Highlight it? Not care about it? It looks like this now [see left].
