Very Important Stuff

Yesterday I got the brilliant idea to try to color my own hair. I spent forever in the do-it-yourself-hair-color aisle talking to my mom on the cell to make sure I got the right kind of color.

What about this one? No, that one will turn your hair green.

What about this one? No, that one will turn your hair pink.

Hmmmm, maybe this is a bad idea.

Finally, Mom and I settled on one that she thought might work but she still warned me to do a test patch, just in case (I'm afraid of my hair falling out at this point).

Here I am, nervous and anxious about ruining my hair like so many do-it-yourselfers before me.

Ya, see those roots? Not a great look.

Here's what I look like now. Thanks L'Oreal.
