Color me red

Where do I begin? I love to get my hair cut and colored. Since I can remember I've been obsessed with hair color and styles. When my kids were young ( 80's) me and the neighbor moms used to perm each others hair and then pull strands through the plastic cap and frost it.The word "frost" has now been re-named "highlight". Our hair ended up yellow and frizzy but we all looked the same so it didn't matter. My neighbor moved and I never got another perm again.

During that time the only magazine choices we had to choose a haircut from were the ones the salons offered. I would pick a haircut and end up being disappointed. I would grow it out and try again and again and again. I never felt pleased with my haircuts. I was always looking for that "something different" look but it didn't exist. 

I've always been a risk taker when it comes to my hair. I'm always trying to be different and always looking to change my appearance. This has been ongoing for 30 years. My hair is fine and straight with no body to it. I've tried years of haircuts and finally found what I like....a pixie. Thank goodness for the internet and pinterest.

I started going grey at 30 so hair color has been a priority. Being the risk taker that I am I've had deep purple, blonde, brown, red,  highlights and lowlights. As of this week I am now sporting a cute pixie with a deep rich dark red color and I'm loving it.

I'm passionate about hair and will continue to experiment...check
