Ombre

Being a natural redhead it is almost taboo to dye your hair. When I was in middle school I went blonde for a year but ultimately let my hair grow back in. My parents would never let me do anything to crazy because of the red so instead they bought me wigs and I wore those. I always wanted to put pink and purple in but never had the nerve to
So It's has been fifteen years since I have put any color in my hair and still no pink or purple. Then I turned 27 and that was the first birthday I thought, I am an adult. I have almost a two year old. Holy crap! Then I started thinking about all those projects, skills, things I have wanted to do over the years and always pushed off to another day, a later date; then realizing it IS that later date. I am getting older. By no means do I think I am "old" or am upset about aging, but that I have let so many things get away from me or hold me back from doing what I want.
For instance, my hair. I have never had the nerve to actually color it a fun, funky color. Why not? Who cares anyway. It's just hair. It grows and I can chop it off or alter it again. So I did it! I allowed myself to live in the moment and have a little fun and not take myself so seriously.
