Highlights

Well, it looks like I might NOT be getting my hair highlighted. Thanks to those of you who have voted at our little voting station. I have been debating for a few months now about this issue. You have swayed me, at least for the moment. Why have I been wanting highlights, you ask? Well first of all, I normally get natural highlights from spending time out in the summer sun, but this summer I didn’t stay outside much at all because I’ve heard that babies (ie Chase) can get sunburned quite easily even with sunscreen. So my hair color is quite dark, I feel. Also, I am tired of the same general color I’ve had my whole life; I want a change, and also I like the look of lighter hair with lighter skin like mine. Plus, I think blonde hair is stunning but there’s no way I would ever completely dye my hair, and I wouldn’t look good blonde anyway. But hey, let’s face it, when a guy sees a blonde girl from a distance, he generally thinks she’s hot even if he can’t really see her face, but a brunette doesn’t catch his eye quite as easily. At least that’s what I have observed. Not that I’m trying to impress guys, just my husband, but maybe he would like my hair better with highlights even though he claims he wouldn’t. I think he just doesn’t want me to spend money on it and be stuck in a never-ending cycle of paying for touch-ups every 2 months or so, even if it is just at a local beauty school. But the money issue really does affect my current decision, since we’re moving and I would rather spend that money on things for the house. So anyway, for now it’s a no-no. But we’ll see what I think tomorrow. Let’s hear some comments from anyone who actually read through this post!
