Brace yourself!

OK, it's for a good cause. It's been a couple of Thanksgivings ago since I last donated and my hair was long enough now so I thought, why not put it to good use again. So, I had 10 inches of my hair chopped off! I will then send it to Locks of Love to benefit someone that needs it. For those of you who have or have had long hair and had it cut dramatically might understand my apprehension when the hairstylist started to cut my hair! I wasn't very good at carrying my beautiful hair but I missed them just the same. But, that's not all. I've been wanting to color my hair for a little splash in my look so, I told Vanessa (the hairstylist) to highlight my hair with whatever she thought my fit my skin tone and viola! Quite a shocker! More blonde than I'm use to--certainly on me! I think they were suppose to be light brown, but I think with juggling 4 of us, she must have left me on a little too long, plus color tend to set in quite quickly on me so that didn't help. But! I looked at it again, this time with openness and convinced myself that I liked it. Overall, I really do. She did a good job. It might be a little too light for me, but I think I can pull it off -- just smile a lot. Of course, Dave won't be home 'til late tonight so that's another apprehension. He's not going to be happy but he's also not going to say anything bad. Afterall, it'll grow out.BeforeAfter
