Haircut Disappointment

So I finally decide to go get my hair cut.
I mean...it's been a year, so it's about time.

(hair now..before cut)



See?...it needed a good shaping.

I searched for hours online, looking for the cut I wanted...something not too drastic, still long, flattering...similar to what I use to have, but longer.
I found it!


I printed off the picture and took it with me.
"No problem" she assured me!

wash wash wash
comb comb comb
cut cut cut

dry dry dry...and VOILA..


Not a bad cut...but not ANYTHING like the picture.
Is it?
NOOOOOOOOOO..it's not.

I should've just had her take off more, and gone back to this cut.


It definitely looked better that way.

Oh, it's not bad.
It's just not different.
It's not what I wanted.
It never is.

Guess that's why I wait so long in between hair appointments.

I'm always disappointed.

It looks good, just not like the picture because I don't think she cut the face frame short enough. I am sure it feels better though having the ends cut off. I always loving getting a haircut.

It looks nice on you and I like ypur original cut too, but if you want what's in the picture she needed to cut it shorter around the face and cut layers. It looks like there aren't any layers.

If you trust her ask her to fix it, but expect it to seem too short at first.

Haircuts can be difficult. I always figure it'll grow out pretty soon.

I just don't get haircuts too close to any special events cuz if it's bad & too short there's no fixing or growing out before the big event.

It happened to my son before he was going to be in a wedding. It had to be cut soooo short to fix it, but it had to be fixed.

Take care and know that you look great.

It would look more similar if you just shaped it a little around your face, comb a little forward on each side and cut it at a steep diagonal to the longest length. I used to do mine like that..... and if you mess up it will grow back!

So..it's a new year. And I haven't posted here since..umm..May. I have been thinking of deleting this blog..or at least all the entries in it, and starting over. Maybe a school blog. I see tons of cute ones everyday when I'm perusing pinterest. I could do that. maybe. no...probably not. But I might try. This place did not turn out the way I wanted it to. I have my personal "diary" blogs/journals elsewhere. This one is too public for that anymore. I should make it something fun. I don't want to lose it. Erica made it so cute for me. I don't even know how to do that... or, for that matter, delete the entries I have here. I can't find the "dashboard" button that use to be there. hmmmm.. This may take more time than I thought.

Alphabee Thursday: E is for Expectations

Today is Alphabee-Thursday. That means my blog is brought to you by the letter E. is for yep...that's right. Expectations Such a big word. Dictionary.com defines it as Something expected. hmmm....kinda vague, so I looked up "EXPECT": 1.to look forward to; regard as likely to happen; anticipate the occurrence or the coming of 2. to look for with reason or justification: There are certain things I just expect in life: * I expect the light to come on when I flip the switch. * I expect the microwave to pop my popcorn perfectly in about 3 minutes. * I expect whatever I'm plugging into the electrical socket to work when I turn it on. * I expect to be given correct change when paying for a purchase. I also have expectations of people in my life. *I expect people to do what they say they will do *I expect my children to do what I ask of them, when I ask it *I expect kindness instead of rudeness in public *I expect honesty from others. *I expect my dog to jump all over me as...

C is for Crayon

Image
Today is Alphabe-Thursday. That means my blog is brought to you by the letter C...so let's get right down to it. is for ahhh...the simplicity of crayons! An essential tool in my profession, and yet such a vital part of our lives. Crayons have the ability to color our world. They add life to simple drawings, brighten up the darkest of pictures, and create rainbows on rainy days. After completing a writing assignment my students will often ask...."Do we have to draw a picture?" "Of course you do!! And use your crayons!" I will reply. And then the real feelings of their topic show through. Without color, how dull our lives would be. No yellow sunshiny days. No pink cotton candy. No blue skies and green grass. Lollipops would be tasteless and lemonade would be just water. The fashion industry would go bust and movies would not be worth seeing. Crayons add life. They add spirit. And they make me smile. Even tho a wee little piece of one was the bane of my world on M...
