As I have mentioned before, I have wanted to try getting some highlights in my hair for the first time. I have been looking at my hair and deciding that it’s been getting too dark for my liking, so I decided to go for it. “How bad could it turn out?” is what Rachel said the night before when I was expressing my reluctance. I wanted to do it, though. I am cheap so I just went to a local beauty school where the coloring is $20. It ended up taking 3 hours, and Rachel was entertaining Chase there the whole time and wondering when it would end. The girl who did my hair was so excited, saying I would love it!!! Yay! But when all was said and done, it didn’t look hardly any different! I think it just didn’t sit in my hair long enough to take very well. So I made an appointment to go back and have someone else do it (for free since they messed up the first time) and make it a little more noticeable, because i wanted my hair to look lighter! Rachel for some reason agreed to watch Chase again, so I went. It ended up taking almost 4 hours this second time, yes just for highlights, not even a haircut with it. I was so out of it at the end and I vowed never to do it at a beauty school again. They just take too long! I mean, I’ll still get my hair cut at those places, just because I’m not picky about what my haircut is like, but not color! So anyway, the result is that my hair is indeed lighter, but I don’t think I’m a huge fan of what it looks like on me. I think they did it too chunky and I can’t decide if I look like a wannabe blonde or white trash. But it’s not THAT bad…. Just in time for my birthday!
