New Do

Its that time again. The gray roots in my dark hair start to peep out at the crown. It shines like Christmas tinsel around grandmaws old Christmas tree. 

I usually will just get some root touch up and fix it every four to six weeks and let my hair dresser do an all over color about twice a year. I love going to the salon and getting pampered every now and again. She has asked me a couple of times if I would like to try a new color called eggplant. "Na purple is not for me".

Well, today I sent her a text. It went something like this....

Me: hey how would this look on me ?( sent picture of an undercut).

Hairdresser: "awesome! Yes!"

Me: "ok, I feel wild today. Lets do it!"

So after work I headed to the salon. In no time I was in the chair getting the nap of my hair buzzed off! And soon the color. Yes, I decided to let her do the eggplant color this time. I wanted something fun. Even though purple is my least favorite color. She assured me it would not be purple but would have a hint of purple. 

I didnt tell my husband about my undercut until I got home and got the thumbs up on the color. To him, the haircut itself looked like what I normally get. An angled messy bob.

"Ah but now let me show you the surprise" I said, as I lifted up the back of my hair and reviled my wild hair tattoo. I turn back to him with a devilish grin and child like giggle. I think he liked it. He teased me a little then he snapped these pictures to show ya. 

We tried hard to get the light to show the purple tint with not much luck but thats ok, did I mention I didnt even like purple? But I like my hair and the color.

Speaking of egg plant. I planted a few yesterday.

My sister had given me some egg plant and bell peppers to grow. I just used an old crate for the eggplants and two pots for the bell peppers. Wish me luck on that. They have perked up since the picture was taken.
