I'm seeing a new hair person on Thursday. I'm sick of looking. I really want to settle down. He sounds amazing and I really want things to work out between us. I want to have a lasting, productive relationship. I really want to establish a standing appointment. Having a standing hair appointment will be some grown-ass-lady stuff. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself.
I've been creating mood board collages of my hair history. The good and the better.
Sure, it's vain, but it's also hard to create verbal illustrations of how you expect your hair to turn out. I recommend when you're having a good hair day that you photograph it. You don't have to share it with the internet, but save it somewhere you can refer to if you need to meet a new stylist.
I sometimes feel like a little psycho taking all these photos of my hair, but look, they're helpful. I'm really happy I've got this crazy-girl archive to mull back over and decide where to go from here.
Til then, I'm breathing deep and printing, printing, printing examples.
I bet I'm the only person who brings in example photos of myself.
I have done the same thing. I have also printed out pictures of other bloggers' pictures as hair examples and, unfortunately, some of those bloggers lived in NYC. Every time I did that I crossed my fingers that no one in the salon knew any of those people.
ReplyDeleteOh, I bet they would be terribly flattered! You have such cute hair and you're so precious.
DeleteIn the pic of you wearing the leopard print top- that's my favorite hairdo of yours! Good luck with your new stylist- I hope you get what you want. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. I like that era too. :)
DeleteI love your wild but tame hair. The doe-eyed pic in the bottom cluster, smack dab in the middle is my favorite. I love those wispy curls!
ReplyDeleteHmm, I have to say I like it when your fringe is swept to the side. When it is blunt and brushed just straight down, it just sort of consumes you and if I saw you in person it would be distracting. I read your blog all the time so surely this makes my opinion very valid? ;-)

I loved the 'high and mighty' pomp!! Your hair looked fab then. Can't wait to see what will come next.
ReplyDeleteI looove your hair. Your short hair with the side swept bangs are my favorite.

I feel for you, girl. I found a stylist I liked a LOT and after 2 years she decided to quit the business and go to college or something. Now I am on the hunt again. Good luck!
