Hair

I got my hair done today and my eyebrows waxed for the first time since........eeekk can't believe I'm going to admit this.....since my wedding....in November. Ok true a few people might know I got my hair cut once since then but at a totally random little place near our home in Houston just because it was ridiculously long. But, since my wedding I have not had my highlights done or had a truly professional good hair cut and layering. I don't know why I waited. Fear of a finding a new stylist? Lazy? Wanting to save money?

I thought my eyebrows looked fine, no stray hairs, but boy was I wrong when I had them done! Whew such a difference! Love love, Facelogic. I've gone to Facelogic in Waco, Dallas and now Houston for my eyebrows exclusively for 6 years now and I've been so pleased with the results and atmosphere. If you don't like my eyebrows then don't go there! haha! I love them. My grandma Dixie always had a thing about keeping natural looking, thicker eyebrows and I guess it stuck with me. Something she used to say about being in a car wreck and they'd shave off your eyebrows and they wouldn't grow back so keep them nice and thick...I dunno doesn't make much sense but when I think about my eyebrows I hear her voice. Ok that's neither here nor there, I look better today end of story. :)

Then the hair...trivial all this beauty stuff is I know, but it really makes you feel so much better when everything is fresh. I sucked it up and went to a really nice salon in Houston called Traci Scott. I went to the stylist, Cion. He is originally from Hobbs, New Mexico where my college roommate Maggie is from! Small world. He is the nicest and most experienced guy. I didn't think I'd find anyone as good as Casie in Waco, but he has put my fears to ease and is just as good. Can't say better because Casie is just soooo wonderful, but I'm thrilled to find someone not 3 hours away!

Today my hair is a little shorter, and a little lighter, but we toned down the blondeness of the highlights so its more....honey golden...? with a slightly auburn color? and with some darker low lights. Mabye not auburn....I don't know I haven't looked at it enough but its different.

Ah breath of fresh air. Almost didn't make it to my appointment because work was so crazy, but ya know...sometimes you just have to literally say, is this so important that I can't do it later? So I got away and now look refreshed!
