Hair color update

Super quickly.....

Just wanted to let you know that I had my hair done on Saturday. And the final result is that I went back to natural with a darker lowlight and let me tell you it looks amazing. I had no idea that my natural color was so dark. Actually it wasn't but hey getting older is good for something and in my case its turning my hair dark again. A little history. When I was born I had black hair....black as the night....it went with the eyebrows and eyelashes. Then around 2yrs old I turned into a light, light brown almost blond color. Some would say dishwater blond....uggg. And there it stayed for many, many years. So at 15 I started coloring my hair....it was fun, creative, let me express myself--sortof. It was more like my mom is a strawberry blond, my sister a redhead, my brother a redhead, my dad dark chocolate brown and then there was me. Not a match to be found anywhere in the genetic line. So now 16 years later (I can't believe its been that long) I went back to natural and lo and behold my natural color is NOT dishwater, mouse brown. Honestly when I first saw it (after I put my glasses back on) I almost started crying. I look like my dad. There is a family resemblance between us. It was an amazing moment and the poor hairdresser was so worried because I just kept saying that I look like my dad, I actually look like my dad....and she thought that it was a bad thing. So in conclusion. The new natural haircolor is amazing. I am an ash brown with lowlights (I can't quite give up the kick of playing with color yet)and it is beautiful. It looks so rich and dark and my eyes just pop when you look at me. Does that make sense??? Anyhow no matter if it makes sense of not... the color is great, it really works with my skin tone and is so natural. Even John was amazing by it and now want to get highlights next Saturday in my color. :) Bottom line, I love my new look and I am comfortable with it...which is very, very important.

So that's the latest....JDK has a great new natural color!! Gotta love it!
