The One Where I Get More Than I Asked For

Remember over Spring Break when I claimed I was going back to blonde?

And then the dude doing my hair was chicken and it was still brown?

WELL…

I am not only blonde now…I’m borderline surf girl platinum. Somebody get me a board and a wetsuit!

(Cue the screams while looking in the mirror)

OH man. I am redefining the term Teacher Barbie. This is not a happy face. This is my Oh Daliene face.

Let me say something else about the above picture.  I posted it on FB, and everyone seemed to like the hair.  This picture was taken under fluorescent lighting in my bathroom, which adds some yellow.  This actually helps the look of my hair, giving it some warmer yellow tones…not the sad, gray, overly bleached locks I’m truly sportin :(

Friday night I tried another new salon. I had stopped this colorist on the sidewalk outside her salon a few weeks ago (I know…I’m crazy) because I loved her hair and I wanted it. You see, the problem in San Antonio I’ve found it most people have DARK hair, and I need someone who love BLONDE hair.

What I did not want was to have to sit in the chair, overprocessing by only god knows how long because she was working on another client at the same time. (Shoot me now)

She also decided to use about 2,000 foils, leaving very little dark/natural color.  This creates an all over blonde. Something I’m not used to.

Life lesson learned. Never get your hair done on a Friday night. You’ll be too tired to think about what is going on to defend yourself.

SO-I sit here with perfect blond roots…which should look just lovely in about 4 weeks, OMG.

My biggest fear is going to work tomorrow. I know people are gonna freak out.  It is pretty drastic.  Most people won’t remember that a little over a year ago I was almost this blonde.  They just remember the Katy Perry look I’ve been sportin.

    Ya, I learned my lesson about getting my hair done on a friday night too…I should have known my haircut would have turned out like crap when all my 20yo hair dresser could talk about with her friend was ‘going out’ that night. She was ready to get out of there and I was her last appt. She gave me the closest thing to a mullet that I’ve ever had. (I had to go back the next week and have another hair dresser fix it …it was THAT bad.) Never again will I get my hair done on a Friday night! Lesson learned!
