Every six months, (oh hair gods, I know thee says every six weeks. Please don't make me bald) I go to my salon and get some very expensive things done to my hair. This time it involved foil, three bowls of color and three brushes, scissors, razors and funny looking gimped combs. The extravagance sometimes has me panicky.

 

She says, "So, I was thinking about what I wanted to do with your hair-"

Oh, thrill! She thinks of my hair when I'm not there!

She asks, "How do you feel about copper?"

I gush, "Sounds great!"

She asks, "What do you think about bright blonde?"

I nod enthusiastically, "I'm cool with whatever."

I'm infatuated with Amber. I've mentioned it before.

 

She shows me what she wants to do with her hair as she mixes goo and pulls out the foils. The magazine cutting is tucked into one of her station's drawers. I drool. It's a magnificent shade of purple, almost silvery, in a single broad streak through very light, golden blonde. The contrast is simple.

 

She's happy with the results. I'm happy with the results. Chilly's happy with the results. We're all gosh-darn happy. I panic only a little at the price tag.

One of these days socKs will need to tell the story of how we decided to dye our hair on our honeymoon while slightly drunk. And how I freaked out at the color my hair turned.

She tells it much better than I...

You know, I'm just not the type to do this stuff.... Granted, I did a bit of streaking when I was a teen (and ended up looking like a skunk) but my hair grows so freaking fast that doing anything to it just looks retarded in a few weeks.  I would LOVE to have a mass of curls, but it costs a fortune with all this hair, and gives the beauticians absolute heart attacks, not to mention cramps in their hands... the last perm I had it took 8 hours just to roll it up!

So I just leave it alone, and enjoy the grey which comes in more rapidly all the time.  I have always loved grey hair, since I was a kid.  (Yeah, I know. That's weird)  But really, I do like it.  I tell people I am going lighter, one hair at a time. *grin*  I get a lot of the "Oh my GOD! Look at the grey!" when people see me in the sunshine, especially if my hair is down. (Or I talk someone into brushing it)  And I just smile, saying I love it, and have earned it.
