Ok maybe the guys won't know what I mean when I say I got some much

needed Hairapy last night, but the women reading this will!  I ended up

with something different at the hair salon, something I have wanted to

do with my hair and finally did it.  Getting my hair done is always a

treat for me, a way to pamper myself; it just makes me feel good. 

(Well if you have a good stylist, this is the case; but if you can't

trust what they will do to your hair, it could be the opposite and just

a stressful experience.) So if you are having a bad week - or just a

stressful week, getting your hair done has a way of providing that much

need hairapy/therapy for anyone.  Or maybe it's just a girl thing.

I

have always been a brunette.  And I do love being a brunette (no

offense to you blondes).  In the past I have gotten low lights in a

violet hew and one other time I got a caramel mixed in with the

violet.  But last night I got blonde highlights!  Now I know what you

are thinking, "Big Deal!" right? But this is a big deal to me.  At

least it's a different 'look' for me.  I have dark brown hair and the

blonde is quite the contrast.  But thankfully, the new hair stylist I

tried out last night did a great job with making it subtle, yet

noticeable. (I know new style and new hairstylist; I was being brave!) 

Anyway I hope everyone will like it.  My daughter likes the look and my

son, wouldn't ever know the difference anyway :(. 

Now, the

test will be to wait and see if the girls at work notice and hear what

they think. I can't wait to hear their reaction!  Ok, girls, I am

waiting....

  • HEY! you know what i definitly know what your feeling . I think getting my hair done is such a therapy. I go relaxed all by myself . I have a stylist so i know what im getting myself into. I told her " i want alittle bit of a bang in the front" she did and it came out CUTE! and it felt as like a release to me to do something different . I dont know seems weird ! but i know where you comming from..........
