Yay! It’s my favorite time of the year. Okay, who am I kidding. This happens at least three times a year. I have an appointment on Saturday morning at Altered Ego Salon to have my nails done as well as my hair!! Now only is this a chance to get something crazy and different, it will be my first time at my stylist here in Tempe. I’ve had a lot of success with my nails and my eyebrows here though, so I am comfortable with my hair. Hopefully I have a stylist that is VERY experienced in color as I requested. I always get nervous with new stylists. So far, my stylist in both Akron and Dearborn have been the best. Virginia was a complete bust but it was such a small town. I can see this being a better experience.

While I don’t want to challenge her too much, I also don’t want to sacrifice my usual out of the ordinary color because of it either. The way my hair was cut last I like the most out of any of the ones I have had, and I have a good chance of keeping something similar too it. We all know though, I am a sucker for color, and it’s always the hardest decision I make.

My natural hair color is red, but it has dulled over the years to a brunette. My latest color is actually blonde, and for the first time. It took two salon trips to dye 95% of my hair blonde, and I was really nervous about it. However, my stylist in Dearborn suggested it and said it would look great on me, and as usual she was right. I’ve gotten a lot of compliments about the blonde. I also got good compliments when I did the pink/red color job prior to that. Part of me says go with one of those.. part of me says to hold up because I have NEVER had the same coloring done twice.

Here are some of the styles of the past.

*phew* There they are. Just a few of the crazy things I’ve done over the past five years. Feel free to speak up, and I actually encourage it. Whether you’ve known me for years, months, or not at all I’d love to hear some suggestions to think about and take in with me this weekend. Hopefully I won’t have as bad of a hairtastrophe as the poor Light Rail Blogger did.
