Hair Revolt

 Ever notice when its time to cut your hair it stops acting like a teenager and decides its going to do whats right? Well the appointment was scheduled. My hair actually started cooperating... so I thought until it conspired to rebel..

I was having a bad day the other day. Horrible day. It sucked. I decided to hop in a HOT shower to make me feel better before work. I finish my shower and get ready to dry my hair. I pick up my trusty blow dryer and turn it on. NOTHING. I can hear the power going into it but nothing. I shake it and things rattle inside. DAMN! Its all broke up inside :( So I go grab my cheap backup blow dryer. I get my hair all moussed up and my diffuser put on. I flip my hair upside down to start drying it and turn the dryer on. It SHOCKS ME! A little electrical bolt jumped right out of the end of it and snapped me right on top of the head! DAMN again! Hurry and turn it off and look at it. The inside is glowing hot red like those cigarette lighters for your car. I try and turn it on..after its like 12 feet away from my head... and nothing. UGH. It shocked me good. I was glad my hair was wet otherwise it would have caught on fire! It made me all light headed and funny feeling. Bad day. No blow dryer. Lame hairdo now.Feelin funny from being electrocuted.. I pull it into a side braid and call it good. After I got off work at 0600 I went and bought a new blow dryer. Plus side its PINK!!!!

Friday (the same day I bought the blow dryer) was my hair appointment at 2pm with Jacie at Hair Repair. I got off work at 0600 figured I could sleep til noon, shower and go. I cant stand going to a hair appointment with out washing my hair first. And making sure I'm all made up and clean. Something about someone being that close to you while they do your hair makes me HAVE to be all done up. Plus hair salons can be intimidating! There are all these girls all dolled up that have super cute hair... and there you are...

I wake up at Joe calling me saying I forgot my key open the door. I look at my phone and its exactly 2pm!! NNNOOOOOO! I throw on some clothes, scrub my face and brush my teeth. I'm ready to go by 2:05. I call Jacie and apologize profusely and tell her I'm on my way.. I show up all puffy eyed from sleeping, pillow lines on my face, no make up, my pony tail holder broke on the drive up there so my hair is going everywhere. What a way to start it. Thankfully Jacie didn't run from fright!!

She took 4 inches off my hair and put in a ton of layers. Styled it up all cute and curled it with the flat iron. She used this fantastic stuff that HELD THE CURL! It was so soft. Normally when I get my hair cut the style lasts for about  .5 seconds. Honestly. Its flat by then. I told her to style it however she wanted because I knew it really wouldn't matter. Its snowing and it will be toast soon. Happy to report when I left for work at 2000 hrs it was still curled!! Amazing! It really is more evenly curled but its hard to take your own picture backwards in the mirror and pretend to not look at the camera!
