So I was bored.

That should have been my first clue that I should have gone to bed.

Nope

I went to the store and bought hair dye.

THEN I came home and got my hair wet and picked up the scissors.

Still bored.

Started to cut. Am I the only one who takes my boredom out on my poor mane?

Kept cutting. Took my halfway down my back tresses to the nape of my neck.

Dried. Hmmmm.....might get used to it. As slight horror starts to creep in.

Dyed burgundy........loved this color in school!

Dried again....OMG! This would look great......on anyone else.

I have always used my hair to hide behind because I am too self conscious. I took away my shield! This is like Superman without a cape! ARGHHHHHHH!

BUT, good news is it might grow on me and my cousin loves it. Let's hope.....

WHY DIDN'T I GET THE MEMO!!!!!!!!!!

LMAO!

Seriously though, I kinda like this. It's fun. I am still far too self-conscious but I NEED to be able to NOT hide behind my hair. I don't have that option now. Either I buy a ski-mask or face the world, and I HATE ski-masks. LOL!
