I have never colored my hair in my entire life. I almost did when I turned 30 but chickened out. I am not really picky about my hair and I go a long time between hair cuts so I didn't want it to look funny with roots that needed to be done. But every once in a while I would look at someone's hair and think, "I would like my hair to look like that." With the help of my husband and sister-in-law, I decided to try it and get highlights.
Here I am before (don't pay attention to the basketball hoop behind my head)
Look how long my hair had gotten. (Jenney and I tried to figure out when the last time I had gotten my hair cut and we couldn't remember. So it had been a LONG time!)
So after dinner on Sunday, Jenney went to work.
This is after the highlights. Then Jenney cut my hair. I told her to take off about 6 inches. I was getting tired of laying on my hair.
Here I am after with just a fast blow dry.
The back
I wanted to see the difference between the before pic and after. Since I was wearing a barrette, I decided to see what I looked like.
Stephen says that you can see the difference better from the side. You really can see the difference.
Even though it is just a slight difference, I really like it. The biggest change I saw was on Monday, the day after. I decided to see what my hair looked like curled. Here it is. My hair has never curled very well and the curl usually falls out within a couple of hours. But I curled my hair and it stayed all day with only my usual amount of hairspray, which isn't very much. I was impressed.
Thanks Jenney! I love it!
There was some bleach left when I was done so Jenney gave Kylan some tips.
This was his first time doing anything like this to his hair too. It is subtle but he really likes it!
