Every time I went black with my hair, my evangelical aunt and uncle were in my face asking if I was goth now.
Because my hair was black.
I could have been wearing all white, and they would still want to know why I was goth.

How often do you guys get your hair done? I have to go every 6-8 weeks. This last time was 9 and it was BAD. It's just hard for me to justify spending more than I do now. I do like my girl though so I'm not complaining. FFTC umm last time I went to the salon was when B was like 8 months old. He just turned 2. So yeah.. I need to go.

I do like my girl though so I'm not complaining. I have an appointment on Sunday to get my hair cut, last time was just before my maternity leave ended, so it's been a while. I don't girl very well and have never colored my hair nor do I really want to start because then there's the time and money of upkeep. It's usually in a ponytail anyways so for me it makes sense to not do anything fancy to it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I do like my girl though so I'm not complaining. I get it cut every 6 or so weeks, and my highlights done every 12 (so every other appt, essentially). I keep my highlights pretty subtle so it's not super obvious as they grow out. Im sure I'll have to up the frequency, etc. as I age and I get more greys but for now the highlights are enough. I hate spending the money but I do love how it looks. I also HATE how long it takes; 2-3 hours at the salon is kind of torture for me. I'm overdue for both right now (I have an appt next week with my mom's stylist in Maine) and I think I look like a spaniel.

My two white eye lashes are far more annoying than the grays in my hair.

goldenlove, curly hair hides a lot so maybe once a year! 😬I know, I should more frequently. But I just had the big chop! I'm letting my grey hair wispy-s fly! Lol starbuck, I don't Girl well either! But compared to my SILs I'm girly!?! I always thought I was a tomboy especially compared to my sister but after meeting these girls, I think there are levels of girly lol!

I'm really hungry but don't want the oatmeal I brought. I'm thinking of eating this split pea soup that I brought for lunch now. Hmmmm.

Morning gals!
After nap we're going downtown. I bought a couple high chairs from IKEA yesterday to donate to the local pregnancy care centre along with all my madela pumping supplies and nursing bras! Good bye baby stage, I'll miss you never.
I'll stop into work for a visit since we're 2 blocks away and back home for lunch, exciting day over here.

I'm still gagging danib ugh goldenlove because I don't get any baby free time I try to go at the end of every other month as a forced alone time. So 8-9ish weeks. Before M was born I went a good 18 months not going and I really regret that. I'd love to go every six weeks, but it's hard enough going as often as I do already. I hope you're feeling fantastic today and YAY tooth!! Have a safe trip flamingo and enjoy the time with your Momma. Enjoy the splash pad classymrsa! I feel like your H just had his final day of school and now already I'm seeing back to school sales. Crazy how summer always seems to be on the fast forward setting.

I stain them so that I don't go around looking like a hamster and scaring my H when I don't have mascara on. It's...not a good look.

danib, I'm pretty sure a crunchy banana is bad omen. You should just give up on today and go back to bed. goldenlove, as evidenced by my before hair pic last week, I get my hair done roughly once ever 1.5-2 years. Lazy AF over here.

Morning!
DS2 was up every 1.5-2 hours last night up he's super happy right now. We're about to head out to our day trip to Bainbridge Island. Hopefully today is a better day than yesterday.

H and I went to Seattle just before DS was born and made it to Bainbridge Island! I'm so glad we did because it was one of the best parts of our trip. I'd go back in a heartbeat! We had the best sushi there, but I can't remember the name of the restaurant! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

But have you had anything to drink yet jubilantsquirrel ? I mean, that's what vacations are for right? sophiegrace I LOLd at your hamster reference. I have super light eyelashes and eyebrows. I cannot go without mascara or people give me the "are you feeling ok? You like ok tired" thing. Also I've tried coloring in my brows a few times (very light) and H is like "JAAAAYYYYYYYSUS". I do not make a pretty done up girl, I just stick to my powder concealer, mascara, blush, and chapstick. goldenlove I am supposed to highlight every 6-8 weeks, when financially and logistically feasible I prefer to stick to 6 weeks because I don't like my regrowth. I feel so much lighter and peppier when I'm freshly colored. Cut, I could take or leave. I love side ponytails with a braid and headband so that's my go to if it gets long. starbuck I can't stand the small talk, just let me drink my wine and read my shitty magazine please. I don't do small talk well, I'm awkward like that. Luckily my current hairdresser which took me forever to find is really cool and we have tons of mutual friends so it's easy enough to just chat about IL issues and she gives me the lowdown on those people's dramas bc I otherwise keep to myself.

Hi. H has a weird rash on her face. It comes and goes throughout the day (first noticed Tuesday). It's especially pronounced when she wakes up and fades, then comes back sometimes after nap. I'm thinking maybe from laying her face in drool bc she sleeps mostly face down with her head turned a bit to one side. She hasn't had any new foods, no new detergent or anything. Any ideas? I emailed a pic to the NP at her pedi office but they're at lunch. I'm not super worried about it as it doesn't seem to bother her at all. But it does feel really dry. You can see it on her nose and one cheek here. But it varies around her cheeks, nose, and chin.

I have vitiligo in one eyebrow so one brow is almost half white, like divided vertically in half. I just use mascara on it. And then rando white eyelashes. Ugh.

I look like Gollum without makeup on. At a very minimum I need concealer on my bags and mascara for my light lashes. No makeup plus crazy grey hair is a scary sight. amberlie It looks similar to what C gets (which I think is eczema) but we're in a constant battle with it. It does seem to get worse when food or spit sits on his skin too long. Hopefully it's nothing and goes away.

amberlie, I believe it's drool! L sleeps face down all the darn time and his face looks awful? He rubs his face into the mattress as well...

kleigh team light eyelashes here as well. I look COMPLETELY different when I wear makeup, mascara specifically. If I don't I always get the "you look tired" comment. Blah.
