If only I could go everyday.

Post image for If only I could go everyday.


Going to the hair salon is like a little trip to the ‘hope store’ for me. I walk in with unrealistic expectations. I make jokes when they ask “what would you like today? “Oh whatever hair cut makes me look like a supermodel. And 40 lbs thinner would be nice” They laugh politely. But I am only half kidding. What? Are you telling me there aren’t any kinda sorta totally overweight, nearly 40 super models rockin the runway this season? Whatev.

But what happens when I have fresh color, bangs cut professionally (um, meaning not cut in haste as I walk out the door using the old gift wrapping scissors from the craft drawer) and a fresh round brush blow out is nothing less than amazing. I probably look maybe 5% different than when I walked in. But I FEEL 100% better.

Suz took this photo on a day I had my hair cut recently. And the iPhone? Oh she wanted to document (for blackmail later I am assuming but I am beating her to it) that I listen to ‘kids; music on my iPhone. Why yes I do thankyouverymuch. Oh and SO DOES SHE. So there. We are even. As even as my bangs.

Cute! I always feel better after a hair cut too. My stylist just quit (moving on to a nursing career) and my last hair cut wasn’t great. Not a good feeling…

Cute hairdo! And I’m not sure what your “kid’s music” is on your phone but I put all the CD’s that enter our home in my iTunes and ultimately my iPhone/Pod. Why yes I do have the Jonas Brothers on my iPod….and I don’t necessarily skip them when they come on. I’m a dork like that.

Love the hair, and I can SO relate to that feeling! Matt starts school at 7 a.m. next Wed. My hair appt is set for 8 am. Not that I’m ready for anything.
