Hair......cut.....and other horrors......

How do you know if you have a good or bad haircut? I got my hair cut and colored a couple of weeks ago, and I am just not sure..... first, it was a problem that a cut and color cost me $240. Holy Shit- for that much money my hair should style itself and never be grey again.

Did I ever tell you about the time that I knew I had to start coloring my hair? For all of those who are prematurely grey, my condolences. I started to notice grey hair when I was 14 (yup- 14)!!! I remember when I was in high school; I hadn't yet resorted to coloring my hair yet. Now, let me preface this story by telling you that I WAS NOT POPULAR. That being said, it was horrifying when my calculus teacher commented about my grey hair when I was 17. FUCK! It wasn't enough that I was (am) chubby, that I had (sometimes still do) have acne (I thought it would go away at 30....RIGHT!); that I am smart, that I am sarcastic.... all of these things do not bode well for an typical public American high school girl. I wonder why I didn't go to the prom.....anyhow-- let me tell you how great it was for my bearded calculus teacher adjust HER glasses while telling me that I had grey hair.......

So the dying began. The problem with dying your hair is that you can't decide what color really looks best. I have tried red, dark brown, almost blonde....but not too sure what looks good. And the laziness really is an issue here; I am just too lazy to keep up with it. But once you start, it's a necessity. When I don't keep up with the dye job, I look like the french skunk (white stripe down the center of my head). But, look on the bright side, it's a nice bright silver, not a dingy grey (thanks friends, for seeing the positive!!). Can I shave my head? Will it be lumpy? Shaving a head is really an all or nothing thing; you can't go back on that decision!!! :)

I am becoming more and more convinced that I am nothing but an experiment by my parents. Granted, I ended up with some cool stuff- I have sharp as a butter knife wit, and a fear that has kept me from ever using illegal drugs.....but really????? Big ass, a turkey gaggle neck, a metabolism that only rivals molasses uphill in a freeze..
