Saturday Day at the Beauty Shop !!

What a wonderful time was spent yesterday at the Beauty Salon .... I used to be a "toe head"?? white blonde hair !! As I began having children, my hair got darker and more red in it ....Now of course with my ummmmmm...approaching middle age ( ok so what, I'm allready out of the middle and on my way down the other side ....LOL ) anyways, I've just now begun finding a few grey hairs here and there.....well, I have not ever been one to make "regular" trips to the beauty shop , but go just a few times a year when my own hack jobs are just getting boring...At home hair coloring products only seem to bring out the red/ orange in my hair as they aren't strong enough to get past that point . My buddy Blondie ( Vintage Prims) knows what I'm talking about seeing as she is a hair stylist.... I miss my blonde hair but have not wanted to "bleach " the whole head.... well, the girl that did my hair used low lights and highlights to prevent the brassy look I've usually had due to the store bought " medium ash blonde " coloring I usually use...

I love the way it turned out !!!!

Also... I took my youngest daughter with me to add a few highlights to her "black" hair....she is at the age where she is "experimenting" with her hair...she dyed it BLACK ( with the help of her older sister who I wanted to choke) and it looks, uhhhhh, different. She has gotten a little tired of it so we got a fresh cut and had some highlights added to her hair...

While we were there, my oldest daughter called ( hunted me down is more like it, I'm telling you I can't leave the house more than 5 minutes and the cell phone is ringing left and right from one of my older "children" needing to know where I am and what I'm doing..... all my older children are out of the house, but I swear they have Radar and know when I leave)

well anyways, my older daughter decided to pop in for a cut and style, so it was a family reunion ...

Here is a pic of the top of my head ( I had allready scrubbed my face and removed my make-up so I wasn't taking a full face shot....lol) and a pic of my youngest daughter with her new highlights ( which didn't seem to really lighten up too much)...
