treat my hair better

I finally went for a haircut today, after more than 3 months. I gulped and asked the stylist to cut off 2”, and I’m so glad I did.

My hair isn’t too short, and it feels soooo much better. Most of the yucky dye is gone. It’s nice to be getting back to my real color.

Prior to that, I was blow-drying and/or flat-ironing my hair every day. Todos los dias. And my hair was really suffering.

I had stopped dying it in January of 2006. A year later I have about 6 inches of relatively healthy, me-colored hair, and the rest is a lot better off than it was in September.

So far, I have really enjoyed the change, not only the actual physical change in my hair, but the boost to my self-image since I kicked my hair dryer and straightening iron to the curb.
