My New Do
Yesterday I got a bug up my butt and decided to get my hair styled. I went to the same girl I used last time. She works in a pretty schnazzy's spa around here, Sugar House. She "loves" my hair which means I LOVE her. All went well. She asked me what I "want to do to my hair this time" and I said "I'd like to keep the length but maybe get a little more crazy with the layers, especially in the back. You know....for more bounce... "I walk out feeling like a SUPER STAR. I swear to God I had Jennifer Aniston hair. It was bouncy, trendy, and blow dried to perfection. It was so good in fact I was asked to come back on Sunday for a photo shoot. The spa is doing a photo shoot of select clients to keep an updated "hair magazine" of cuts that have been done in their hair studio. (Yea...I said Hair Studio..eh hem...I'm so cool) So I bounce myself back to my office and the ego begins to inflate. Eric likes it. I like it. Holly hasn't seen it yet but she likes it - trust me - it's hot.
This morning I woke up and was paralyzed in fear. I was afraid to shower. I knew that the chances of me recreating this "do" were slim. I pep myself up, reminding myself lightly that I AM JENNIFER ANISTON JUNIOR(!), and hop in the shower. Wet hair happens. I take deep breaths. I get dressed. I unwrap the towel and begin to analyze what exactly I have to do to get it back the way it was yesterday. So I dry. Round brush. Dry. Round brush. Dry. Round brush. Huh...it's not lookin the same, people. (One "shit!" might have slipped out at this juncture) I then check the clock it's 7:50am and I still have to walk the dog.....dry. Round brush. Breath. It's semi rounded - and I have to go. Get dog on leash. Walk outside IN THE RAIN! RAIN!? I now have flat chunks of freshly cut hair. Some short, some long, none "round". I'm a Jennifer Aniston Boob.
Solution #1 Rent another set of arms so that I can get to the layers in the back
Solution #2 Rent a personal hair dresser to dry my hair every morning
Solution #3 Train Eric to use a round brush
Solution #4 Patiently let it grow out and admit defeat
I'm thinking it's gonna be 4.....If the round brush isn't hooked up to a power tool then Eric can't do it and #1 and #2 are going to be expensive. Ok well #1 might take some minor scientific assistance....

Round brushing is a science -- and I've never been good at Science. However, I think with some practicing, a few frustrated mornings, and lots of wine, I can make this "do" work. I have to! I love the idea of it...and it looked fine yesterday...I've also never had a style before. This is new to me. Maybe I should get my sister to move in with me. She "styles" often.
I can definetly help~! I will call you to discuss. ITs really easy once you build up your muscles and get a routine going. THere are also helpful tricks.
Y0u could always move in with me. We have plenty of room. I think I even have an extra crate for you!

Might I make a suggestion? How about you wash and dry your hair at nite before you go to bed and then in the a.m. just do the styling part? This saves on TONS of time in the morning and gives you extra "sleeping in" time! :) In my case, it also "flattens" my hair just enough so that it's not frizzy anymore. Just an idea!
Thank God you blogged today...I was going through withdrawal!! Do you realize your last post before this one was TUESDAY?!!! :) Hee hee hee!
That's AWESOME about the photo shoot this weekend! Share pix!
Jess -- totally good suggestiong. I'm going to try that tomorrow.
