My hairdresser has bad days too LOL  so I know how that feels.  We wil chant to the moon goddess to give you another fruitful month of growth!  Then you'll be caught up. Kinda!

Thanks guys.  She had long hair the last time, this time she had it cut atleast 2-3 inches shorter.  I should have skipped my appointment when I saw that, you know the old thing about how hairdresser will make you look like them... Sallys was having a sale so I drown my sorrows there.

The next optimal date for a haircut is Sept 15th or 16th according to the lunar haircare calendar.  I am debating whether I should get a professional trim or just do a search and destroy mission for split ends.  The next optimal day for haircutting isn't until Dec 17 and I am afraid that might just be too long.

August 30th is the next day for haircare.  This is marked as a day to beautify hair so I plan to use my favorite thickening conditioner and my leave in conditioner to help maintain color.

I still haven't figured out anything to help with lengthening hair and every month has dates set aside for lengthening work.

I have jury duty coming up and I was thinking about buying at outfit that I normally would not wear.  I spent two hours in Target Thursday looking at clothes.  To my credit I didn't buy anything.  I have read that Sags have a hard time saving money, that sure is true of me

Very interesting  Hadn't heard about the lunar calendar for hair care yet........will do some googling later and get me more info.


I do a bunch of stuff according to the moon. Really don't understand how I missed the hair care part.

Husbands and hair! They mean to say something nice and encouraging, but what comes out of their mouth is far from that.

After five years on the hair boards my hubby has finally learned what to say and how not to say it. lol

Don't worry about what he says, he may like your hair shorter, but you wear your hair the way you want to.  Work on some updos that you both will enjoy, this way you both get what you want.

Ooops. Forgot something 

My mother was worried the whole pregnancy that I might have red hair - like my Dad. She hated red hair. Well, I was born with black hair, like my Grandma. When I turned 14 or 15 I started coloring my hair: RED. Go figure 

I have been faithfully following the astrological hair guide and I am pleased to report that my hair is now 15.5 inches.  I have not completely regained the inch the hairdresser cut but I feel there is progress.

I also got to open my new skin, hair, and nails vitamins this morning so I am looking forward to seeing how they affect my hair.

Now for the depressing stuff because I have been thinking of cutting my hair into layers and I know I must resist.  I want all one length blunt cut to about my bra strap.  This is the reason I have been stressing.  My mother tried repeatedly last weekend to give me $100 to go blond or brunnette, with streaks.
I pulled out my photo albums from high school.  During the fall my hair was brown with red undertones but during the summer it was RED.  She went on and on about my skintone and my eyebrows and my eye color and then she got my dad's mom in on it during dinner.  My paternal grandmother is a retired hairdresser so her opinion carried alot of weight with my mother.  Atleast my grandmother was nice enough to just say she didn't like the color and leave it at that.  My maternal grandmother (the eccentric in the family) likes my hair.  My dad says they just are not used to seeing me with that color and hubby is just glad my grumpy face is not because of anything he did.  He wouldn't care if my hair was purple (and it has been once).

There, now I feel all better.  No more thoughts of cutting my hair

(((hugs))))))

You have to like your hair, nobody else. Well, maybe the hubby. But if he's a good hubby and well trained he will like you and your hair no matter what 

On the serious side: It must be awful to have folks constantly nagging about the hair. Hopefully you find a way soon to shut them up.
