Sarah's New 'Do

One of my really good friends from when I was growing up, came in today to get her hair cut!! She has this mass thick, curly, coarse hair!! So fun! She kind of let me do what I wanted. She gave me a general idea and said go for it! She has had it long for quite a while and was just sick of it and wanted a fun change. Boy did we give her a change!!

(Sorry for the blurry pics. Camera phone!!)

Before
After!!

So cute on her!! I wish I would have taken a picture of the huge pile of hair that we cut off! Seriously like 29 pounds of hair! Thanks Sarah, for letting me play!

Julia's First Haircut

I absolutely love doing "first haircuts". It's one of my favorite things. It's not that they are easy, by any means, or fun (usually) but when it's your niece (or nephew or your own child!!) it's always fun to be a part of that big "first". I am quite certain that I am in many scrapbooks. Not always looking lovely, but as part of that memory. So, that is fun. My niece Julia has this awesome curly, crazy hair. I totally love it. I always wanted a curly haired girl. It's so awesome. But, it needed a little shape and taming!! So, we did it. She wasn't a huge fan, but she did pretty well, considering. It turned out really cute. Hopefully she won't scream every time she sees me. Oh well, even if she does, it's only once a year, right?? Just kidding.

Before. Doesn't she look excited??


Look at that face. It's so awesome!!


Just trying to get the last bits of the "mullet"!!


Julia "Elvis" Williams rockin' her new 'do!



I had the chance to give Julia her first piggies!! What a fun thing for me. And, wow what a cute outfit. Someone with really great taste must have given that to her!!!




Julia and her mommy with their new 'dos!! Thanks guys, for letting me play!!

Just a Girl That Loves Hairdo's

Just wanted to let you all know about a hair site that I have fallen in love with. It is called Cute Girls Hairstyles. Here's the link. http://www.cutegirlshairstyles.blogspot.com/ But, don't you worry, it's been on my sidebar all along. My daughter and I just love the styles in this cute site. The blogger (?) has these adorable little girls and they all have long brown hair (sound familiar??) so it seems like all of the hairstyles she does, work perfectly for us. The hairstyle that I showed for valentines day was from her site. She has just posted one that I love for St. Patricks day, it's called Lucky 'do #4. Super cute. So, go on over and check her out. Lots of great little girl hair ideas and adoption info as well. Odd combination, I know. But it works...

Who Needs Haircolor, Anyway??

Well, my friends. I am noticing, since it has been entirely too long since my last color, that I am officially going gray! AAAH! I am only 32. I think that is pretty young to be going gray. I do have great genes for it, though. NOT! Aren't there always things that we wish we could take out of our genetic pool??? Early gray? Sassy additudes?? Smart alecks?? I know, I know. Me, too. Oh well. This one I'm stuck with. I supposed I can't complain too loudly to the "going gray early" gods. It's how I make my living. I just never thought that I might ACTUALLY have to deal with it myself. Oh well. At least I am "blonde" and it blends a little easier with blonde. Or should I just let it go....

She looks pretty good, I am thinking about it....

The Best Hair Invention EVER!

Not since Bo Derek has a white girl rocked corn rows like this...




On vacation in Mexico, I decided to have my daughter's hair braided. I have always wanted it done myself. But, let's be honest, a 32 year old with 4 inch long hair isn't quite the same! I think it turned out so cute and it made the cruise incredibly nice for me! Low maintenance hair! The best thing ever!!
