Hair Insanity...

I've been sick of my hair for a long time. It was too long and the ends were split and dry. I wore it up EVERY SINGLE DAY. Last week, I finally broke down and make an appointment for a cut. It was supposed to be this Thursday. Unfortunately, I couldn't wait that long!!!!

Last Friday, I went to lunch with Rach. While we were eating, I was complaining about how awful my hair was. How I can't ever wear it down. How I even had to wear a hat that day to cover up the awfulness! I told her that I had an appt for next Thurs, but I wasn't sure if I could wait that long. She said, "Why don't you just go next door to Great Clips? I got a hair cut there for $13!" Um, $13!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????
Hells yeah!
So, I kinda freaked out and went next door as soon as we were finished eating. SIGH. You get what you pay for. =( I think I hate my hair now. The woman cut 6 inches off the length and layered my hair to death. Granted, I sat there and let her do it, but DANG! I don't love it at all. I feel like I have the hair of a 40 y/o woman. *tears* My only consolation is that my hair grows FAST. So, hopefully it'll be better in a couple months.

This is the old hair on a good day. Of course, you can't see the dry, crunchy ends here.



This is me trying to cover up the bad hair last Friday. I love my hats, but it's pretty bad when you HAVE to wear a hat to cover up.

The new hair after the layer nazi got a hold of it. Ick! It looks like an old lady hair cut. And yeah, my face looks like crap too. That's why it's scribbled out. =)

She gave me bangs. *shaking head* What do I do with bangs?! They're bugging the crap outta me.

Okay. So, this is me...happy that I found a solution to the bad cut. Pull the bangs back and flat iron the rest. It almost looks like my old hair. =)

All of my griping aside, I am glad that all that hair is gone. I feel so much lighter. SIX FREAKING INCHES YA'LL! I barely have to use any shampoo now. And it takes two seconds to blow dry. So, I guess I'm not too bad off. I'll just be happier when it's a little bit longer.

In other news... I've finished three scarves now. Yay me! I've learned two different stitches so far on the long looms. I still havent' mastered the round looms. I plan to work on that this weekend. In the meantime, those scarves are so easy to make. I can whip one out in a couple hours now. Woot!

CBB, I am SO with you! I miss the days when I had an acutal "girl" - you know, when you find someone who can do your hair and you always go to them and they do your hair. Only for me, my "girl" was usually a gay guy. Anyway. I, too, go to Great Clips and never know who I'm gonna get. The one girl there (an acutal girl!) that could do my hair right left. Now I'm stuck with the ones that butcher my hair. But . . . it is $13! What are you gonna do? I like your hair, CBB!!!! And I like the scarves!!!! I wish I could knit.
