It had been over four months since I had gotten my hair cut. FOUR MONTHS! With straight, highlighted hair, that is just not okay!! My ends were\u00a0horrendous\u00a0and I can’t even get myself to talk about the growth. I mean, LOOK AT THAT!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
But as a new mom of two, I just couldn’t find the time to get myself into the salon when planning around nursing schedules, nap times and “essential” errands. Pff, grocery store schmocery store. I hate that place anyway.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The ONLY reason I could show myself in public was that without really even trying, I was being “trendy.” Sortof.\u00a0<\/i><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
I couldn’t even bring myself to show my face.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
A while back (the last time I got my hair done, actually, and the first time I left Cal) I\u00a0mentioned something<\/a>\u00a0about Khloe Kardashian and how she needed to dye her hair as her growth was uncalled for with the amount of money she has. Well, I was informed that there is a new style trending called “ombre” where it is actually “in” to have this grown-out look.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Source<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

I then started noticing more and more celebs with this new “do” and came to the conclusion that some don’t look half bad with this ombre style, but I am NOT one of these lucky few that can skip the salon and get away with it.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Like these two ladies, for example.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Source<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Source<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

This is how I feel with the ombre style.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Source<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Disgust.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Source<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

So I finally said, “enough is enough!” and called my stylist three different times trying to schedule around my kiddo obligations, and alas, I was “in.”<\/p>\n

And on a whim, the night before my appointment I decided that I needed a change as I didn’t know the next time I would be able to sit in that seat. Another four months? Longer? Oh please, no…<\/p>\n

So I said goodbye to the nasty-nast roots…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

And went over to the dark side!<\/p>\n

And let me tell you, I feel ridiculous posting a “self-in-the-mirror” pic, but I stay at home with two babies all day. That’s all I’ve got, people! That’s all I’ve got!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

And pose.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

So hopefully becoming a brunette helps conceal any unwanted trendy hair styles in the future!<\/p>\n

Happy Monday!!!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
