Hair

Hair what is it about hair and well hair & hairdressers?

I am a natural blond...unfortunately my hair has forgotten this and insists on growing out mousy, and just lately mousy with sparkly bits.

I take ages to find a hairdresser that I am happy with, I had the perfect one here in Brisbane, then we moved to NZ. Five hairdressers later I was settled, perfect, two wonderful chaps one to colour, sorry enhance and one to cut, I even snuck in visits to my perfect hairdresser chaps when I had to go back to NZ a couple of times. BTW, If anyone is interested Gorgeous B&B for sale in Hawke's Bay - Hawthorne Country House.

Anyway----Four months later I had no excuse, couldn't think of a reason to go to NZ and anyway would you pay $1000.00 Australian to fly to your hairdresser? I certainly couldn't. So I had to find someone in Brisbane...........

After much deliberation and walking past and peering in the window. Think I have, two chaps, one to colour,sorry enhance, one to cut. Hurrah - no longer mousey with sparkly bits, grown out blonde, strawberry and peach bits and a possum stripe down the middle the width of the M4 (don't know if I am allowed to say roots, so have substituted middle).

Sporting a new colour and hairdo , the style of which will never be seen again, until I visit the chaps next time, can't quite master the hairdryer round the back of my head not enough arms.

Even p & a noticed, the cat she just wanted her dinner!

And don't I feel grand :)

Getting back in touch

Well, phew, what can I say I have entered the world of 'blogship' if that is what this is called, and all because my daughter said I was her friend on facebook. Wondering what facebook was all about I signed on, I was amazed, a whole new parallel universe in the same universe and I found that someone I knew many years ago, and would call a friend, and I have to admit I am someone who has a lot of aquaintences and very few friends, had posted on the facebook wall a reply to my daughter. She, the friend that is, has a blog, (a second parallel universe, how many parallel universes are there going to be?) which I read with fastination, I had never encountered a blog before. I know amazing, hand-knitted muesli had not encountered a blog before, where does she live you ask? I don't know if I like to admit where, so I won't, not just yet..... Anyway I emailed her, the friend not my daughter, she replied, the wonders of modern technology, we have re-connected. So I will have to make the effort and blog and most importantly keep in touch with a friend. & maybe in the fullness of time let on where I have been all these years without encountering a blog. I wonder if she will read my blog. I will let you know.
