the things that are wrong with my hair today include, but are not limited to, the following
1. My stylist is on medical leave so someone else cut it this time. For more money, I got less haircut. Or less of a haircut than I wanted. Or less something.
2. It is POSSIBLE that the cut is fine, but since I am out of texturizer stuff I just can’t TELL that it is fine because my HAIR is so fine that without the texturizer stuff it just lies there. Lays there? Looks like crap.
3. It is also possible that the good people at Suave changed not only the PACKAGING on my (dirt cheap) shampoo but also the FORMULA, to make it more MOISTURIZING, in which case it wouldn’t matter if I had a GREAT cut AND the texturizing stuff, my hair would STILL look like crap.
4. I opted not to have my hair colored on this go round, because my stylist is out on sick leave (see #1) and I didn’t want a random stylist COLORING MY HAIR (again, see #1). And because it’s been raining nonstop here for TWO WEEKS, I haven’t been in the sun at all, and we all KNOW that I am NEVER coloring my hair myself EVER AGAIN SO HELP ME GOD, so I am living with what I like to refer to as my Natural Color, which, in combination with my almost unbelieveably small bra size, is absolute proof that God has a mean, mean sense of humor.
5. The humidity here is hovering somewhere around 469%, or just enough to make all those other things completely irrelevant, because how can ANYONE have a good hair day with ALL THIS RAIN?
6. We are out of chocolate chip cookies. I don’t know what the connection is either, but while we had chocolate chip cookies in the house, the hair was not so bad. The kids finished them off at lunch, and it’s been all downhill since then.
I’m going out to get texturizer stuff, new shampoo, and cookies. Wish me luck.

I’ll keep my fingers crossed that you find some excellent cookies, because they really do make everything better!

Yeah, my hair looks good until I walk out the door. By the time I get home from work, it’s such a frizzy tangly mess. Love the rain, HATE the hair.

You know, And I know I am not the only one, You so crack me up. I love it! Not that I love your lack of cookies or too much rain… And I just have to say, because I ‘m really hoping you won’t be offended, that the picture of you at Mamazine it kinda looks like you have hair on your chest. So do you? ;0

Tricia, that’s so funny! No, no hair; that’s my niece’s hair. Which is on her head. In case anyone was wondering.
(Note to self: send Amy and Sheri a new picture . . . )

Oh, I know! The rain! Like, are we in Costa Rica or something? We are getting it at the coast every day as well, and my hair looks like I have a perm, or I am very scared or something.
I am eating chocolate chip cookies right now, and my hair still looks really bad. Drinking a beer, on the other hand, helped it a bunch….or at least my perception of it.

Changing your hair stylist is as bad a changing GYN’s!

While, indeed, you have a teeny tiny breastal area and are suffering with hair that only a mother could love, we have proof that God exists. SuperTarget. The place where all can be found under one roof– hair products and chocolate chip cookies. And, in Minnesota, they throw in a Starbucks right inside the door. Who is the patron Saint of Coffee by the way? St. Joe?

I am sporting what I like to call the white girl ‘fro.
Doesn’t the weather know that I moved here instead of Seattle because I believe too much rain is the devil?
Sheesh.

Yes. The humidity. Awful and miserable. Bad hair, all the time. No hope in sight.
Rains every day.
Send help, if you find any.

Hair dressers should never be allowed to go anywhere other than the salon. Do they not realize that we need them?

You know in a post like that, pictures would help us sympathize…
But good luck with your mission!

June 30th, 2007 at 8:30 am, Susan Says:
Jamie, I bought two bags of Pepperidge Farms Milanos yesterday, double chocolate for Wade and orange for me. Wade ate one cookie. I ate five.
Yes, I love those Pepperidge Farms cookies.

You know I didn’t REALLY think you had hair on your chest, right?

I used to occasionally go to a stylist who had talent but was terribly tempermental. He would cut my hair, then step back and look at it to decide how much to charge for it. I never could muster back my confidence when the price was low.
