It's time to do the deed. No, not that deed. I know you all think I'm too liberal when it comes to talking about things like that, but I wouldn't announce it on my blog okay? Sheesh.
What I mean by deed, is getting my hair cut. I mean like cut-cut. I don't know exactly how I feel about this. I wasn't quite ready to go all the way with the cutting of my hair, because I like it long. But, it seems the decision was made for me, as has been happening with a lot of things lately. (I'll tell you later) I needed a trim real bad. I couldnt ignore it. It's hard when you have hairdressing friends that you know are good and who'll do your hair for free because you do theirs for free, and then you move away. I struggle with having to pay someone else do stuff to my hair that I already know how to do, I just can't do it to myself. It's frustrating. So there was a hair cut gone bad which included Kyle (I don't blame him, it was my own fault, thinking I could just show him what to do and it would be easy) and then I tried to fix it myself, by texturizing it- bad idea. I feel pretty dumb about the whole thing, it reflects badly on me as a stylist. It looks bad. I don't know what to do. I was thinking I'd cut if off soon, but not quite yet. I can't go on like this though. Something must be done. It doesnt have to be crazy drastic, I could probably get away with cutting a few inches off the bottom, and I'd be good. But I've been there done that. I sort of want to do a bob. I decided a long time ago (when the bob craze hit) that when I was done with the long hair, I'd go bob. I've always wanted to try it. It's such a classic cut. I know that it was so three or four years ago, and as a hair dresser I should be with the times, but...I don't know what else to do. Plus I'd rather do it now, than when it was super crazy and everyone had one. I kind of feel like I've been there and done that with everything else. But I'm scared. What if it doesn't look good? What do you think? Can you think of something that'll look better?
We'll see. I made an appointment for Saturday morning at a trendy salon downtown with a stylist recommended by my friend.
I need to remind myself that it's just hair- it grows. It can be long again one day. I knew when I coloured it red, that I'd have to cut a lot of if I wanted to go blonde again anyway...
So we're moving again. Some of you know already. Since Kyle switched into the engineering program, it seems our path has been chosen for us, and we're going to Kelowna where he got accepted into UBC Okanagan. I'm sad to be leaving so soon, as I've made some great friends here, and Adriel has too, and it's been a great adventure, AND I hate moving....but it will be nice to live closer to family again, and be back in our home province, living in a beautiful place that doesn't get nearly as cold. Hopefully it'll be the last move for a while (at least until he's done school)....please??

don't be too hard on yourself for the hair mishap. mishaps happen--even to awesome genius hairdressers like you. i agree with eryn. i think you'll look awesome in the bob (i prefer to call it the tom) and i think you can look fresh with the tom. you always look fresh.
I can't believe you got Kyle to cut your hair.... I mean, c'mon! In our family you either have curly hair or super thick hair or both and either way you need someone who knows what they're doing... hahahahahaha....
