On my drive to the salon today I noticed I was having a conversation (in my head) with myself. Don’t laugh. Admit you do this too and we will both have a better trust in each other.
Before I continue, answer this question:
- What don’t you like about your hair today?
My incommute(new word) conversation was all about how I HATED my hair today. This morning I realized I desperately need a haircut, so instead of wearing my hair down, I added a lethal amount of hairspray and piled it on top of my head using about 100 bobby pins. So as I drove, NO wind in my hair, I came to terms with the cold hard reality that I also need a color touch up. No sooner then coming to these realizations, did I find excuses for why MY hair could wait. The truth is, it can’t. My reality and most of ours is that a bad hair day causes all sorts of wrecks around us. A great hair day gives us confidence to conquer the world.
Now ask yourself-
- What do you love about your hair today?
If your list of answers to the first question out weighs the second, please, please, please take the advice I gave myself and book an appointment with your stylist STAT!
I WILL be getting a much needed haircut and color in two days from now. I am excited to be reintroduced the back of my neck again. Long hair was so “married life” for me or “my 20’s” as I refer to that near prehistoric time. Now as a proud to be 34 year old, I personally love having short hair. When I desire long, I clip in some temporary attitude boosting, always human hair, extensions for a night, but am always glad to unclip rather than have to care for ‘down to there’ locks. Find your hair destiny for today. Doesn’t mean you can’t make a shift when the wind changes direction, you end a relationship or a new decade enters. Today means today. Right now.

As I reluctantly ended my day out x-mas shopping, two young girls(8 years old) passed me and one waved. I waved back and heard her tell her friend “She has yellow hair!” So even from my drive in to p!ay hair lounge today when I convinced myself my identity was lost in a bad hairstyle, this girl was able to see me shining through the NET of spray
. It did feel good, especially since the ‘normal mom’ wasn’t around to shoosh her daugher. (this yellow hair is a choice moms, not an accident) This girl & her friend better prepare for the next time our paths cross and my color and cut are anew. I will hopefully inspire them or anyone else out there to find themselves! Your hair is your greatest accessory, but it can also be your worst enemy. Get a hold of it now before we roll a new year over!
