My New Do

We found many auction items that we had bought in the last Jazz Band get-together. One of them was a color and cut from Salon 512. I haven't had my hair cut in almost a year and thought ... there, that is something I could really use. Called. I hate to make appointments. I hate to be committed to something I must show up for at a appointed time (I am always late). I hate to spend an hour in a chair to get my hair cut. I hate the 40 minutes+ for a color. But it was soooo totally worth it tonight. Beth gave me the best cut, the best color I have ever had!

I even made an appointment in 5 weeks. Mom cried. My neighbor (who was here watching the debates) gasped. My son said "cool". This post is also for Kathy ;). My husband said "maybe you should spring for cut and color more often".

So, thank you, Beth! (If you want her email ... I have it!) You spent 3 hours of free time making me feel great, my hair looks fabulous. And I really appreciate it. I also bought many products to keep this look ;). Okay, I don't look that good in the middle photo ... but it is my "normal" look.

of course you took the first worst possible photo you could find of yourself,,,just like the "before after" photos,,,tee hee, but the 'after" looks so good, I want that color!

Totally worth the time. I don't hate the sitting in the chair, it's pulling out the plastic afterward. STILL: Give yourself a real treat, 30 minutes max, and spring for a pedicure. Wonder of wonders is when they pull out that razor thing and get rid of that yucky heel skin. Makes me feel like I could dance ... as if I could dance.
