HAIR; a 2014 revolution.

It's mad when I think about how much my hair reflects my personality. If i'm feeling blue and quit frankly a bit shit, I keep it scraped up in a hideous top knot which i then hide under a hat. This is then shortly followed by the next stage which is crazy lion hair mode, my OH says it's adorable, but quite frankly i know i look like a total fruit loop!
Then there is my work hair, tied up, neat, often put in a certain way (fringe out of my way biaaaatch!) so that I can work hard without getting flustered by hair.
Finally, my sculpted curly hair, due to my own hair thickness, I fidn it extremely difficult to fully curl my hair, half the time non heat methods work better than narrow curlers, however it does hold it's volume well & matched with smokey eyes and red lips I can pull myself off as a bit of a knockout.

However, my hair colour changes haven't been as vast or wild as all of my friends. My natural colour is a very very dark chestnut brown. Honestly, I miss it so much sometimes. However as I got older, I began craving the blonde attitude so after 3 hefty expenditures on highlight, SHAZAM. I was a blonde goddess (pfft.).

This lasted until I disappeared off to University, I got bored on a weekend alone and dyed my hair bright red, sorry it was two years after the rhianna red craze, and I loved my red hair, just not the upkeep that comes with it. No matter what trick of the trade or highstreet shampoo and enhancing conditioner I bought, nothing is nice about being a faded organutan orange.

Which leads me onto now.
I am in a happy place (finally) in my life, and this has been reflected in my hair. I've tortured it with bleach and toner for the last two months and finally, one nice and easy kit later (honey ash blonde if you must know) I am back to being a golden goddess. At least... thats what I tell myself.

I've been through hell and back emotionally and physically in the last few years, but now I'm happy. I have a lovely man, a lovely group of friends, a lovely bank balance and FINALLY lovely hair.

This has been utterly pointless, I PROMISE I WILL CREATE SOMETHING OF VALUE SOON. :)
