A New You Hair Do

I was talking on the phone with my sister-in-law, Kaylee about how the 30's called for a new look. Something different than the current status quo anyway. So, this Thursday I went to see Tamu, my hair stylist extraordinaire. She told me afterward that if I decided that I wanted to go shorter that I could come back and cut more off.

Before:

I needed a relaxer and a cut very badly

The ducktail I wasn't liking

Then I played with it and changed the part

And tried to undo the ducktail--making me realize that I wanted it shorter in the back

She told me to come back in and she'd cut it shorter--Voila!

Photobucket

Voila again!

Do I look different? I was trying to go for something different. My mom hates it when I cut my hair off. I can't wait to see, read or hear her reaction.

Distressed




I decided to distress the table. What do you think? The more I see it in the room, the more I like it. I think the distressing was a good idea because my kids are always in there putting toys on the table and climbing (against house rules) all over it. All that said, I am thinking I will get some stain and rub it into the distressed parts to add some depth and warmth. Do you think I need to?
