A Good Hair Day....

Well, I just got my hair done....$95 worth of done.  Truthfully, I don't feel like it was worth that much.  I got red "autumn" highlights to replace my golden "summer" highlights, and a trim.  So basically my hair is a little redder, and 1/4 inch shorter.  No one even noticed until I pointed it out to them.  Now, you would think that after spending that much money, someone would notice!  I think that my expectations of hair cutting day are much too high.  I have this thing about getting my hair cut.  Two weeks before my appointment, I begin leafing through hair style magazines at the store, in search of the elusive "perfect cut".  Three days before appointment time, I actually buy the magazine (at $3.99 a pop) and begin frantically searching, bending over the corners of the pages that I like, and shoving it under the nose of my husband while asking, "Which one do you like?"  His response is always the same.  "You know how I like your hair.  The way you have it in the picture of us when we were dating, long and curly."  (Not only is my hair short now, but in the picture I had an 80's perm and my hair was wider than it was long!)  I just roll my eyes, and go back to searching.  Ten minutes before the appointment, I take out the picture that I ripped out of the styling magazine that my Mom had, give it to the stylist, and get the same thing done that I always get done.  So, I am really out about $98.99 plus tax, if you include the purchased magazine.  But hey, my hair does match the season....
