Back to my witty title... I was going after this look. I have a great hairdresser who gave me a nice cut last time. I neglected to take the pic in this time and just said that I wanted to have about the same cut, but with blunt bangs. In the back of my head, I could hear a voice screaming "Don't do it, you will look like a geek!", but I ignored it, thinking that the model in the pic had blunt bangs. Well, this is what I got:
It doesn't look sexy and tousled like Miss Perfect in the pic- i would say I look more like a very mature looking 7 year old. Again, not my hairdresser's fault, cause she did ask me twice if I wanted my bangs blunt. Next time I will be more in tune with her gentle hint...
I am trying to combat my large row of bangs with a slight v where I have a cow lick:
Slightly better, but those bangs are so darn heavy that they are actually controlling my cow lick and eventually pull my hair back into a heavy curtain on my forehead.
This is how I am thinking of wearing them till they grow out:
What do you think? I may do it just to see the look on my tween's face!
Aaah, laughing at oneself is good medicine. The funny thing about those pics are that there is a streak of cover up on my cheek that I didn't even know was there! I was trying to cover a zit and somehow ended up with it all over my face. What a silly nut. I wonder how many times I go out in public unaware of stuff like that? "There's the crazy homeschooling lady again. How many kids does she have anyways?!?"
Anyways, I was laughing about the time I started growing a wart RIGHT smack dab on the end of my nose(which is no small dainty thing anyways). I knew I had to see my ex and his wife (who was the person he had an affair with while still married, so she doesn't like me too much) in a few days to pick up my kids from them. It was a very noticeable wart, so I was determined to get rid off it-fast. I have this silly thing about trying to look together and fab when I am around the kid's step mom- possibly because she is attractive, skinny, and has a large chest. Anyhoo, I don't like to use anything too chemically, so I put apple cider vinegar on the wart, stuck a band aid on and left it overnight. The next day I wake up to discover that the wart has changed- it is now completely BLACK! Needless to say, I arrived to pick up the kids with a band aid on the tip of my nose.

Stay right where you are. I'm coming over with my hair rescue kit. I'll be there in an hour!
PS who cares what G's new wife thinks of you, she should be worried about what you think of her!
I'm fighting the urge to get banged again. The cut you selected is super cute!
It doesn't look like all is lost... maybe take the picture to your hairdresser to see if she could still get you there?
I love the new side of you I am starting to see in your posts. Maybe it just took a while for you to relax around us and be yourself?
I like it.
Now I might have to advise you to not wear the pony tail. Or I could say if you are going to wear your cover up that way you might want to wear the pony tail--it would be a distraction.
I love this post.
And as far as the ex and his well endowed wife-----I think it sounds like you got the better end of the deal.
Work it, girl! :) I love that ponytail. :)
I'm sorry it's taken me this long to get over to your blog - but I wanted to come visit and say thanks for the comment you left on my blog!
Thanks for posting that link to the hairstyle tip site - I need a new look and hopefully this will help me fine one :)
You are so funny! I actually like the bangs. The last picture is HYSTERICAL!. I've been considering a perm lately (ya know... with the 80's come back and all). That and a little too much eye make up and I'll look like a member of an 80's hair band! I'll post some pics if I decide to take the plunge! ~Karlie
Funny stuff! You are too cute. I didn't think the ponytail was too bad!
