get it? my glasses are tortoise shell frames. and here's the new haircut. the overwhelming majority of voters wanted side swiper bangs, so i delivered because i am just that much of a pushover. actually i wanted them pretty bad myself, the only thing really holding me back was that i hate hair in my face and side bangs are long enough to get in your eyes almost by definition. BUT since i have my new glasses, i can tuck the bangs behind the corner of the lens and they hold them back pretty well until they grow enough to blend with the other hair. i really like the cut and i LOVE the color. i am so happy to be out of 1 year old roots shamefest.

judah played golf with daddy (buckled in the cart this time...dont get me started on what happened when i found out he was just sitting the carseat in the cart the 2 times before) while i had my hairathon, so major props to them for letting me go. there's still no way in hellfire i am going to be a hair down daily type of girl, but this should get my average back up to once a week at least...up from once a month since judah was born.

turns out that the trick for keeping degreased bangs doesn't work...i'm not sure it ever did since the frustration i was feeling late sunday was very familiar. the fruffle (ruffle+fluff) maneuver only keeps them separated for about 5 minutes until they congeal again. the best solution i have is baby power or makeup powder dusted in there. this works for blondies more than darkies because the white of the powder, although you could by some black lady makeup powder...that would work.

a toss of my new bangs to you all!
