Always, Alli

I meant to post this on Sunday, but due to morning sickness masquerading as evening sickness, I didn’t bother. And then yesterday I suffered from post-announcement let down, where I felt yucky and didn’t feel like I had anything to show for it. Sure, my pants are tighter and eating five times a day are to be expected, but then again, I could just be getting fat.

Anyway, Saturday I went and got my hair done did. (That is the correct expression, I promise.)

Before I left, I did this quick before self portrait. No make-up, no styling, just me and my wet hair.

I had an excellent time at the stylist. First she waxed my eyebrows (at my request, of course) and she did it with such enthusiasm. Every time she ripped one of the cloths off my eyebrow area, she screamed for me. Not that I have ever screamed when getting my eyebrows waxed. But it probably does call for a little auditory exclamation, and she provided it for me.

Then I put myself in her hands that held scissors and product. She lectured me on the importance of moisturizer for my hair (which I agreed with) and proceeded to remove lots and lots of hair. I was automatically five pounds lighter, and in love with how easy it is to manage.

This is not the most flattering after picture, but it will have to do:

Still no makeup, but obviously less hair.

I have been using the leave-in conditioner and moisture control products I purchased and kind of just leaving my hair to its own resources. Then this morning I had to be at a dentist appointment and decided to NOT wash my hair and just use the straightener on it.

I ended up looking pretty good for the events that unfolded today, and people keep commenting on it.

So, I guess I’m having a good hair day. And I love my hair cut!
