new 'do in the 'du



Kate and I went Wednesday to get our hair permanently straightened. I was enamored with the idea as soon as I found out that I could have styled hair everyday without any daily work. We went in the night before, discussed price, and set our appointments. We were excited.

We started with hair cuts. I just got a trim, but Kate's was more dramatic. Then I was escorted to the 2nd floor loft and the straightened process began. It was a process! Thankfully they had a computer with episodes of Lost to keep me sane during the 3.5 hours of beautifying.

It started with goo, then letting the goo set in, then washing my hair and drying it, then straightening it, then more goo, then another wash, then another dry, then another straightening.

I really loved how it looked but was afraid because I wasn't allowed to get it wet for three days. Of course we picked the rainy and hot season to do it! I suffered through ok, but I looked like an angel by the end. The oils on my face gave me a real nice sheen.

Now my hair is washed and it still looks and feels great! And I'm only $30 poorer.
