The girl and I decided to get our hairs done yesterday…she got most of her locks lopped off and is sporting a stylish new ‘do’ while I chose to go with a new funkified look and had several (three, to be exact) colors put in my locks. I thought you might enjoy my own rendering of my stylish (before & after) look. Yeah, I’m bored, what can I say? Just frickin’ bear with me, m’kay?
The before pic is a rendering of my unruly curls the day prior (when I decided to stay in my pj’s all day and lounge around = messy hair). The after pic - well, that’s self explanatory. And to further demonstrate the loveliness in my locks I took some photos, behold:
Did I go a bit too far? Naw! The above photo does not do the colors justice. No, that’s not orange - it’s caramel! It’s like a frickin’ party in my hair. Heh, there’s a party in my coif…wanna come?
The stylist told me it gave my hair dimension. Yeah…I got’s me some DIMENSION now bitches! Fortunately, due to the inherent curliness of my hair the colors don’t look as terribly garish as they appear in the photos. The colors meld nicely together amongst the curls…see:
And that’s all I’ve got today kids…
Love it!!!
Thanks! It was a crazy move for me but I’m feeling good about it - cuz I got dimension! Heehee!
very nice!!!
Thank you, thank you! There’s still a bit of red in there - can you see it?
Ooh, I love it! The color .. the curls! Niiice!
Thanks, Red. It was a bit of a change for me…I’m pretty conservative when it comes to the hair but I figured if I’m going to do it, I’m gonna go all out!
Very purdy! I’m jealous! I need to go do that for myself. Then, I’d look kick ass too
Thank you. Yes, you do need to do it. My 9 yr. old was jealous and wanted to have color in her hair too. She said, “MOM, that looks SO cool.” Not so sure that I look ‘kick ass’ but I am kinda feeling like a rock star! hahaha!
Party like a rock star in your hair? Was that the fifth dimension I saw?
It does look pretty cool, but what really caught my eye was your mad skills with the MS Paint. 
The colors really do blend together nicely. Risky yes, but I think you pulled it off nicely. 
Why thank you Mr. Parkour. It was a bit risky but I believe it works nicely with all the curls. I think if I had straight hair it would just be striped - like some comic book villain. Thank you for noticing my mad MS Paint skillz. Since I am now unemployed all I do every day is sit on my ass with my computer on my lap, watch Oprah, eat bon bons (Girl Scout cookies, actually) and hone my Paint skills. Stay tuned - I will be demonstrating some of my superb artistic talents with Paint in the next few days!
ps: I’m still thinking about you and your family, and am hoping that your niece is well.
I love your art work and I love your hair. Nothing like a day at the salon! Then you keep staring at your head. I love it!
Thanks! Funny…I DO keep staring at my head. I usually just color my hair myself so its no big deal. But…NOW…I look in the mirror, check out all the pretty colors - its hypnotizing! Haha! What fun!
That is lush, curl-ified colour-explosion.
Yeah, I think I said what I wanted to say
Whoa…that’s a mouthful. Romi, you always know the right thing to say!!
I think you should consider becoming a sidewalk artist at hair salons!
Ahhhahaha…that’s a FABULOUS idea, why didn’t I think of that? I could do the ‘before’ and ‘after’ sketches and charge a phenomenal fee - hey, I’m certainly NOT going to be a starving artist!
Hold it right there…is that natural curl? I’m so jealous…it looks great in the photo, so I can just imagine how extremely hot you look in the 3-D world.
Thanks Cowgal! Yep, it’s natural curl…I think that’s why I can get away with having so many crazy colors in there!
