Post having 2 babies, my always very blonde hair has started to show major roots the minute my hair grows. Short of being in the salon every 3-4 weeks (read: completely impossible for multiple reasons), the upkeep of my beloved blonde was starting to become a hard battle to fight. I decided yesterday to give dark a try. Not my best decision. I have always been under the mind frame, "it's just hair," until yesterday. And when you go and do something crazy to your own hair, that "it's just hair" mentality gets thrown out the window. Especially not 11 weeks post-partum. During these post having a baby days, with your body and skin a mess, hair is all you've got. And now dark hair is all I've got. Not thrilled. Don't get me wrong, friends, I like brown hair, just not on me. Not at all.
I've spent time both laughing and crying about this. Silly, I know. But truly, it doesn't look like me. Not at all. Case in point: I sent my parents a picture of me last night and they didn't know it was me. No lie. Chloe has said atleast 4 times that she wants my old hair back and I was completely ready for Saylor to cry when she saw me and not recognize me (thankfully, that didn't happen, ha!). My husband has been super sweet, telling me I look beautiful, but we have both agreed that brown isn't my thing and I need my blonde back STAT.
I promised the gal that does my hair I'd stick with it a week to let the shock wear off.
T-minus 6 days, anyone?

Sweetie, you could look beautiful with purple hair! Of course it's drastic but I really like it! I personally like it both ways! Give it a try :)
ReplyDeleteHow about getting heavy highlights when you go back to get some blonde back in?
ReplyDeleteI like it Kilbi! A change is always good when it comes to hair :) I think it looks great!
