yay for change!

So I got my hair done professionally. I still wasn't able to decide what color I wanted, so Misti (my hair dresser) and I discussed it and decided on a reddish brown base with red highlights. She put on the brown, trying to go one shade lighter than my roots and it looked, well, black when she was done. We were both pretty dismayed. She said that it would fade some, and the highlights would help, so we plowed on. She did the highlights, and they turned out much lighter red and blonde than she expected. Apparently my hair is unpredictable;e. But, while she was concerned because it wasn't what we discussed, I love, LOVE, LOOOVE it. It's actually, well. . .It looks as close as you can get to my natural color without it actually being natural. It's like I spent lots of money to get what God gave me. LOL. Oh well. It looks really really good. And she had to whack the ends. It went from waist length to bra strap length, but it feels healthy and looks good, and the length will come back eventually. I have a pic that I took, but it's really dark so you can't really see what color it is. I will put it here any way. Here you go. Man I don't photograph well. *sigh*

PS-I told Jared that I couldn't have him in my life any more. Thought you'd be pleased to hear that.
