Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes.

I got a wild hair yesterday, literally, and decided to utterly change my hair color.   I've had to color it for some time now, 'cause of the gray (it's the most undignified gray pattern ever...like a skunk stripe along my center part), but I've been doing it the same way for years and I thought it might be time for something different.

Actually, it's closer to my real hair color, which is a sort of chestnut brown.  I think it's a tad too dark, but I spend so much time in the sun that I'm sure it'll lighten up a bit.  I had Tracy put red highlights in it, so to me it seems pretty gaudy.

Greg likes it though (I think).

I'm doing a small SCA event tomorrow.  It's nearby, they don't have many merchants showing up, and I think it'll be fun.  Plus OMG I need the money...I spent 300.00 yesterday on supplies.  O_O

It's funny...if I had known how nearly IMPOSSIBLE it is to achieve that wonderful rich coppery-brown that I had as a kid & young adult, I'd have cherished it more. ANYone can have blond hair. That's easy. It's those rich browns that are hard to find in a bottle. I keep telling Charlotte this (her hair is almost the same color mine was) but she doesn't believe me. :-/

I love your hair & your color experiments. :-) Wild hair colors are SO cute on short hair.
