The Joys of My Hair!


this is me... Or was me... I love my hair dark and this is how i looked for a long long time! But I have a tendency.... no an addiction to coloring my hair. I often go for dark colors like deep dark brown and I LOVE black! and occasionally I will add an awesome color like RED! Well for the summer i decided to switch things up a bit. and I wanted to go back to the color I had in September. I looked like this!
SEE, not a bad a goal right!!! I didn't think so! and I remember I went through some mass hair trauma to get it here. I got this hair color on accident. I was on a trip to Colorado with some good friends of mine (Blaire, Kara, and Marisa) and we decided to have a hair dying night! and i decided i wanted to go blonde, which turned out ot be a copper color... so when i got home, i dyed it over and over to get a beautiful color that it was for my family pictures!!!! So here i am in May wanting to dye my hair to get this color....

Step 1: Step one, Bleach my hair!!!


Outcome:
Why in the world my hair went FIRECRACKER red i have no idea. I was expecting a little copper, but not my entire head... so we are on to step 2......


Step two...
dye it with a green based color to off set the FIRECRACKER RED.

Blaire thought it was best to put a bag on my head!!! it definitely contains the mess. and here is my awesome cousin Makayla posing as a cartoon in this photo My cousin is so wonderful as she is so worried about the fried state of my hair and it potentially turning into mush!! Bag heads... It's the new rage! try it, Love it, Live it!!!!

Outcome:Now i can not convey to you how truly ginger i am at this point... I know it may look like a light caramel brown... but not it is a nice brassy ginger color! I looked like i belonged to the Match family (which is not a bad thing, cause Hodie and Mason are my favorite gingers in exsistance!) But as Ben saw via skype, and all my poor co-worker can attest, that ginger is not the color for me!!! .... so after a long long day at work, waiting patiently for the 'Zombie Apocalypse" that never happened i got off work, and bought a darker, green based color!

Step three: dye my hair again with darker green based dye.....

Outcome:

The color is very very very pleasing to mine eyes... but the damage to my hair, well is fatal! It will take many weeks of great conditioning treatments for it to look and feel healthy again, but that's okay because I am pretty dang close to my natural Color... And this is my adventure of dying my hair lighter!

It's almost been a year!!!!!

Well hello again,
It has been almost a year since I last "blogged", and well I think that is far too long for someone to go without talking about their life! So I am back. I will admit that I completely forgot that I had a blog until I was talking to a friend and he said that he had "facebook" stalked me, and on my facebook is the link to my blog, and he said that he read it! and wow it is out of date!!!! So here I am again and going to get into the habit of Blogging!
It's hard to start up again, so I thought I would give a quick recap/overview/briefing of the life of me now, in the past year!!!!
Firstly a year ago, I talked about how I was single, I regret to inform you that that didn't last for long and that I got back with said ex boyfriend, but now we are done for good and have been for about 2.5 months! For all of you that I was a brat to, ditched out on, never talked to or told you to go to hell for this boy... I AM VERY SORRY! I give the biggest apology to my family that had to put up with me and my drama through that life chapter of mine!!! But thanks to them and to my true friends that have stuck around and love me all the same! I love you all dearly!

Also I talked about how to approach me, and I talked about a self help program that I swore I would never go to it... well I went!!!! and I loved it! the program is called Great Life, It is quite pricey but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I learned so much about myself and how I show up in the world, and I like to think I grew up a lot from this experience! I found out who I am, and I found purpose on a completely personal level. Who am I, you ask? I am a pure, forgiving, creative woman! And I courageously inspire love, dedication, passion and power! Who are you? and what is your purpose??? Anyways I made many great friends in this training that I will always have a special place in my heart for!

I still think that people need to slow down and enjoy life, and that I will always want to take a man camping with me to put up my tent! I just think that those are only natural things to want! I am not in school right now, but am in the process of enrolling for fall semester!!! I am really excited to be going back and to keep my mind busy again! so that no matter what I will always have something to do! So that will be exciting and I can't wait to get that rolling again. I will be going to UVU .... and will be commuting... and spending tons of money on gas But I just can't see myself moving to happy valley! Just don't see that to be like a good fit! Nothing against you happy valley dwellers!

Anyways I will cut this blog a little short and will write another here shortly and have more of a theme behind the entry, basically this one is saying..... HONEY I'M HOME!!!!!

About Me

My photo
I am young. I like going to school, but I hate waking up to get there on time. I plan on going into culinary arts. I love my dogs. I don't eat the color BLUE. I have a big heart, but am straight forward, blunt, and brutally honest. I am a people person but love my alone time. I like to paint, but don't do it often. My personality color is red, meaning am a natural leader and can get quite bossy. I am stubborn, and believe in the use of logic, but believe that sometimes one must follow their heart and not their brains. There is plenty more to know about me.
