back to blonde

I've been talking about it for more than a year.

I've failed in my plan to do it in the past.

But folks, it's true. Karianne is back to blonde.

Getting my hair cut or dyed is one of those things I talk about all the time but that take me a long time to actually get around to.

I'll often place it on my To-do list for months at a time. But since my sophomore year in college, my hair has been really dark. I like my hair really dark. (See pic from freshmen year...and that I do really talk about this a lot.) So when my hair would lighten and grow out, I've often thought about going lighter again...just to do something different.

But it's easier to go dark than it is to go light. So when I'd go in for a hair appointment and ask about going light, they'd tell me it would be a process since I'd have to take many steps to get to that blonde point.

I'm not patient for something like that.

So I simply go dark once again. My hair has been growing out for a while now and since I'm not one who is uber on top of my hair maintenance, I have done nothing to it for about two years (aside from cuts). This time in 2008 really probably was the last time I died my hair. When I moved into my current ward in 2009, I had maybe 2 inches of root growth. Now only the tips of my hair had any dye. Soo...this would be one of my few opportunities to go blonde. I had light hair. I wasn't itching to go dark.

And I did it. You'll have to see it in person. :)
