Bringin' Sexy Back!

Why in frustration from dealing with my hair, did I pull out the crimping iron last night (Sunday). Yes, I said crimping iron. I know many of you haven't seen one of those since the early 1990s. Now, before you call the fashion police keep in mind that my crimping iron (I know many of you are shaking your heads in amazement and asking "who the hell still has a crimping iron") does not make the ridged geometrical crimps that were all the craze in the 80's (see picture).
Rather my crimper creates a more wavy look. I would equate it more to the flapper look of the 40s or even the finger waves (yes, I wore them too back in the day) of the 90s. Unfortunately, neither of those looks are ones I really want to have goin' on. All that to say that I am having some "hair" remorse this morning. While, I am getting a lot of compliments on my hair, I can't help but to feel like a throw back. You know, one of those older women (at 37, that would be me now) that decide that the look (could be clothes or hairstyles) they carried best was 20 years prior. Fortunately, I realize (after the fact anyways) that this look is not working for me. It's a good thing I'm going to get my hair done this week.



Just wanted to share...here's my hair.
Oh and I forgot to mention that yesterday I decided to (I'm beginning to see a pattern-I swear I didn't smoke any crack yesterday) give my self a french manicure on my toes. The catch though is that I decided to use turquoise instead of white. HATE IT! Now I gotta re-do my toes!
