a journey of sorts. heh. :]

ya know, winter is the best time to do things different.
spice it up.
make some changes that you...can control. heh. ;)

september 14, reddish highlights. 

november 1, 2010. outside lowe's, waiting on some family members to come out so we can go home. yeah, i remember that much. the reddish highlights are way faded by the time of this picture.

november 9, dark hair try-out #1.
yeah, i guess i should explain the look rachel's going for here: grammy's glasses...um...that's all i can say. she's an odd bird. and i live with her. imagine that. but, ya know, i love my sisters. :)

december 10....i'd have to go back in my journals to see if i wrote this one down.
it looks kinda highlight-y. hmmmm. what's more, however i chose to edit this picture was kind of odd....not my normal settings at all....

december 17. seriously. looks a world different from the one before this. straaaange.

december 26 2010. yeah....you have the honor of witnessing me covered in the dye. yippee.

this time, a medium-light brown with a hint of red to it.

here's another shot (at jen and craig's wedding) with that shade of reddish-brown. i quite liked that color:)

january 14, i dyed it dark. dark dark.
the dye photos for this are horrendous. therefore....uh yeah. heh:) i shall spare you, aren't you excited! ;)

there are small parts i miss about being blonde.
does that make sense?
well, i miss the highlights. ^^

too bad i can't remember which hair dye job this was....or was it my normal? no. i think not. this particular photo dates back to december 1. ah. this would be the 1st brunette try, faded quite a bit. i quite like the shade it was here...hmm.

p.s. after i dyed it dark on the 14th of this month, i put in some layers using this video as my inspiration/technique. last time i had my hair cut by miss joann, i wanted something different, so she did a blunt cut hacking off about 4 inches, and some longer-type bangs. all of which i wanted. by january, heck yeah, i was totally wanting some layers. so...i did it. of course with the scape goat of going back to miss joann to fix it if it turned out ill. heh;) but i loved how it turned out.

so. what a fascinating post.
i'm about done. it's 10:57pm and i need to go steam myself.
and...what does steam myself mean?
it means i put a few cups of near-boiling water in a huge stainless steel bowl, put a few drops of this awesome multi-purpose essential oil blend in, drape a towel over my head, and breathe deep for a few really really long moments. :)
it's been helping get rid of this cough/infection thingy.
i just started doing it today; did it two times today. now for a third. and after that....sleep.
g'night:)
