The New Do.

Tuesday, August 25, 2015

There is something SO freaking therapeutic about a new haircut. It's empowering.   
The whole process a like a beautiful Pintrest-quotey metaphor.  You go in with all of the dead ends, the unhealthy locks, and you walk out with a fresh new healthy feeling do! Out with the old, in with the new. Am I right?? Ahh if only life were that simple. 
And what is it about hairdressers?! Do they teach some sort psychology course in Beauty School? It's the best type of therapy session. My stylist (Jenny...bless her) and I  had a long discussion about life. She patiently listened to me as I explained to her my quarter-life-crises situation, to which she responded with a lot of intelligent advice. It's oddly comforting to know that there are other people who struggle of have struggled with the same problems as you. 
Basically what I got out of my haircut/therapy session with the wise Jenny was that sometimes you just have to take risks and put yourself out there. It's Ok to feel lost. No one knows what they are doing half the time anyways. Just find something that interests you and dive in.
Not bad advice huh?

    1. Thanks! It's pretty refreshing, but I'm sure I will be whining about missing my long hair soon. ;)

    1. Yes, I do. I recommend doing it on a whim, possibly having a glass of whine before? That way you do it so quickly that you can't overthink it. Regrets, maybe but that's life! ;) (I do like my new do though.No regrets yet!)
