A new me… at least the hair.

by Jessica on June 27, 2012

So, I did it. I highlighted the heck out of my hair. For a quick refresher, this is what I was going for:

And this is what I got (forgive the crappy lighting!):

I love it! I think it’s very fresh, summery and different from how it was before. I am excited to mess with it a little bit more, obviously, my stylist curled it for me today to give me that wavy look. I’m curious to see how it looks straight, too. All-in-all, I would say it was a good move, granted I’m ready for it to be about a foot longer!  It will take a few trips to give me that all over color that Alessandra (because we’re on a first-name basis and all) has, but I think this was a good first visit. Right after processing, the highlights were way too blonde, and before she even showed them to me, she said we were toning them down, so she did. I like the color a lot now! Hopefully I’ll be happy with this look for a while. I definitely feel refreshed, and I’m so relieved that I’m not platinum blonde… I was getting nervous when she was brushing on all of that blonde color!

Love it! And now you have me questioning my decision to hack off my hair at the end of this week. I’ve been in this cycle for years: grow hair out, chop it all off. Rinse and repeat. Maybe color is the way to go to ease hair boredom. Hmm…
