Somethings gotta change…

I just got finished dying my sister’s hair and I’ve been thinking about my # 4 on my list. Back in the day when money wasn’t an issue I would change my hair colour/style all the time. Now that I have a mortgage and I’m a “grown up” I find it very difficult to justify to my husband why it cost me $200+ at the salon. I feel bored with my hair. It’s the same old style month after month and I need a change.

I love how dark hair looks with my hazel eyes but at the sametime I love being blonde. (it’s true they have more fun )

When I get back home I will try to find old pictures of all my different hairstyles for inspiration… I feel like #4 just might be the next one to cross off my list
