My Hair!..(Ahlin name that movie)

(This is going to be a long one I'm sorry! But when the words flow they flow, ya know?)
Well I should probably start this post off by saying, I am the queen of phases. Ask anyone in my family. They should be able to rattle of a few right off the bat if you ask them. To name a few: the geckos, airsoft guns, knives, Disney Princesses, Disney Movies, coloring, photography (which is a phase I am still in, thank goodness), old movies, punk clothing (scary times), etc. Usually I don't discover that I am going through the phase until several months after the fact. Well today it's a little different. I noticed that a couple weeks ago that my 'style' changed a bit. I wish I would have stopped when I saw it coming but now I am afraid to say it is too late. . .
Jades sister came down about a month ago for the baby. She happens to be a hair person (I always forget what they're called. . .hair stylest? salonist? those don't sound right). So I had the crazy thought of, I'll cut and dye my hair! So she dyed the bottom half a subtle shade of brown and put some highlights in it. No big deal right? WRONG. I then had the thought while we were buying the brown hair dye, that I've always wanted teal in my hair. Why? I don't know, maybe I secretly want to be a mermaid. Point is, several hours later BAM there's a chunk of teal in my hair. Not very noticeable but still present. This started my new phase. The next week I found a pair of killer huge sunglasses, bought two pairs of skinny jeans (one purple one bright blue), painted my nails some insane dark color (night with a finish coat of blackberry, which is red, go figure) and got a crazy cool jacket. Well if you know me, when I go, I go all the way. And the teal wasn't cuttin it for me. So that Sunday I found myself at a friends house getting my hair dyed 'dark brown' aka black, underneath and covering the teal with purple! What the heck? I know. Now I realize that this is a phase. And I am crazy. Oh well. . . I LOVE IT!


The purple on the side. I put it underneath too...

Notice the nails...
