Random Hair Thoughts/Thinking out loud

Ugh. I promised to meet up with an old friend for dinner next Friday. I don't know what it is, but when I see someone from my past I want to look my best. But I'm really making progress with my hair and flat-ironing just to impress someone is the best way down the path to setback central. I'm gonna have to get over it and shoot for a sleek bun, perhaps.

The braids are out and may hair is huge! Can't wait to see how this translates to length when I straighten my hair this winter......

I got my hair balayaged today. Then she toned it and put on a brown rinse. I barely notice the color... and it cost me $300. I really hope that it isn't too damaged. I'll trim later tonight once I assess my ends. Hopefully the brown color fades soon and reveals the brighter color underneath.

I thought you were going for silver/grey? How come she put a brown rinse on?

I wanted the gray shade, but it was going to be too damaging. I can lift it more and tone it silver once I see how my hair reacts. It's pretty strong. She says I have strands of steel. I flat ironed tonight with no breakage, so we'll see

I got my hair cut into a tapered cut 2 weeks ago by my longtime on and off stylist (due to distance). I was looking forward to being able to wear it curly. I maybe have 4 whole curls in my hair now. The amount of heat damage I have is ridiculous. 98% of my hair won't curl up anymore. I'm beyond pissed because now I'm basically going to have to cut it all off and start over. It's already pretty short and now I have to go shorter. Seriously, I want to cry. CRY!!!
