I have no idea.

I left my hair the way it is. was. is. 
I had all intentions of coloring over it, despite all the kind comments/compliments I received. 
I made Jeff come home for a long lunch, so I could go to the only available appointment. 
I researched and pondered over what color I should color over it with. 
I drove down there, I waited in the lounge, I looked over a magazine. 
I sat in the chair, explained that I wasn't sure I could pull the look anymore. 
I explained what kind of color I wanted, or thought I wanted, or color-ish I was thinking of. 
I made no sense whatsoever. I didn't know what the heck I was trying to say.
She looked confused, nodded, brought back color samples.
Then totally talked me out of it. 
I came home and sat and tried to figure out whether I had been bullied, or if she had helped me see the light. 
I still don't know. 
All I know is I don't jump when I catch my reflection anymore, I kinda like it now, and a little regrowth can go a long way to soften a platinum blonde head. 
I'm so easily manipulated.

i agree and i agree with kayleen. i don't think hairdressers know the power that they wield.

It's true. I've been talked out of a mullet so many times.

i love it. love it a lot. i wish i could pull off such a color.

in november i went in to get a soft beautiful coffee brown. i was given black. one month later though and it turned into the greatest color ever. a week or two can do wonders. one day soon you will love it too.

one part of me is like, damn those hairdressers for bullying you.. but then i'm like, wait wouldn't a hairdresser be stoked that you came back and wanted something else done so soon? isn't that extra business/tip for them?

who knows. but bottom line: own it, it looks great.
