New Hair, New Style

Posted in Hairstyles by

You would not believe what I purchased this weekend!

I wanted to run out of the house on Sunday but didn’t feel like doing my hair. I think I had a pre-poo in. I thought to myself that it would be great if I had a wig. I don’t know that I would have the balls to wear a wig daily and around people I know, but for a quick run out of the house, it would work just fine.

I went to the beauty supply store with the intention of buying a wig. I looked at the different styles. I wanted long straight hair, so I can channel my relaxed hair on the days when I miss it. The problem with me and wigs is that I have a teenie weenie forehead and most wigs have bangs so they look ridiculous on me.

As I’m trying them on, the girl who was helping me suggested that I try a half wig. I tried it on and I was sold!

When I got home and did my hair routine, I twisted the back and left a row in the front to straighten to blend with the wig. My hair straightened nicely, but it was dying to revert so I don’t think it blended as well as I expected. Maybe I’m just not used to these kinds of things. *shrugs*

It came out pretty good though. I’ll work with it some more.

Baby, it’s cold outside!

Posted in Uncategorized by

I was standing in the cold this morning, with my high bun and my hat in my bag. (My mother would kill me!) My ears were so cold! This winter is definitely going to be a challenge for me.

I’m used to my long hair. I’ve had it all my life! In the winter, I always wore my hair down. Not only was that my style, but it kept my ears and my neck warm. It was also easy to throw any style of hat on it and it worked. My hair thrives in the cold weather.

This winter… “what is I’m goin’ do?!” *panicking* I have short(er) hair! I rarely wear it down. How am I supposed to wear a hat if I have a bun? Especially a high bun! This is all new to me… and it’s only getting colder outside!

HELP!!!!!

(Ok, I know I’m overly dramatic. Lol)

XOXO,
