What's that word for someone who continues to do the same act - while hoping for a new outcome? Well foolish is as foolish does... and this fool still continues to cut her own hair! I alluded to the fact that I had recently created a mullet by 'accident'. See, I had been trying to grow my hair out again - it was down to my shoulders - though I always tied it up or in braids. I thought if I ignore it long enough.. it may grow into something Rapunzel would envy. Then I got the notion that I should 'trim' it... snip.chop.hack moments later... I had once again shortened a pile of layers around my head with these long 'mullet' like layers at the back... [sigh]. Ben called it for what it was and suggested I may want to just go short again. ;o) Agreed.
I marched back up to the bathroom the next night and grabbed the hair buzzers - that's the sound of liberation right there. I chopped off the mullet, buzzed the back and ended up with this fun little mop top. So far, I'm actually kind of liking it! If I wasn't pregnant I think I would totally reclaim some of my former years of 'rainbow' hair colour options ... I want some crazy funky colours back in my palette! I can wait... 7 months.
P.S. - that is not a birthmark on my neck, it's a tattoo... the Hebrew word LAEL which means "of God (belonging to God)".
What's the craziest 'do you've ever done?
Mine was likely during the tomboy phase of childhood... where I shaved one side and had long bangs on the other... oh the glory days!
Lighter-headed,
Mel :o)
