Taking a break from decorating talk today to blog about what really matters: my hair. Just kidding, but I do have a little gift for (one of) you so stick with me.
I don’t think any girl is ever completely happy with her hair. I’ve done some pretty stupid things with mine, including getting a super tight perm (bangs included) the summer before I started college (whaaaat???) and cutting off my long hair right after getting pregnant for the second time:
They say you should never do anything drastic to your hair while you’re pregnant. I should’ve listened to them. I loved it for the twenty minute drive home—and then not so much after I walked in the door and saw my husband’s reaction. . . . (He will deny this.)
I invested a lot of thought and effort into my hair during my twenties. But, I’m finding that as I get older, I don’t have the interest in spending tons of money or time on it. (And, I get so fidgety sitting in that chair for very long—anybody else?) I would like to say that I’ve become low-maintenance, but that’s probably pushing it :)
For the last couple of years, I’ve just gotten trims and I’ve even started coloring it myself occasionally (because I’m not low-maintenance enough to let the grays show).
(All of that work, and I’d really just like to have hair that looks like my three-year-old’s.)
So, in the spirit of better hair, and because I appreciate my readers, I have a little giveaway. Misikko (a site that specializes in flat irons, hair dryers and curling irons) recently sent me one of their Hana Pro 1” flat irons to review. But, since my hair is at the stage where a big curling iron works better than a flat iron (and I just bought a new one not too long ago), I’m passing it along to one of you.
