Eugene plus Color equals Dramatic Results

Even as a stylist I get bored with hair.  No, not my clients’ hair, my own.  I ask myself all types of questions?  What do I do now?  Do I grow it out?  Do I shave it again?  Do I go brown with some highlights?  How about a keratin treatment?  The list goes on and on…

A few months back, I noticed a friend and fellow stylist, Heidi Garrett (IG Heidimariegarrett), was going a bit crazy with her hair color.  Uh, Hello!  Before and after, anyone?

Heidi - Before

Heidi - After

Now, everyone has a different version of “crazy”.  I mean, you have to remember - she is a stylist, so “crazy” could be her norm.  Right??  Not even close.  Let me explain - She is like me: pretty “vanilla” in terms of changing her hair color.  Yeah, I would rock different lengths, but my color pretty much stayed the same.  I had briefly chatted with her about trying out a new color on myself and she was game, but I was still hesitant.  What color would I really do?  Pink?  Purple?  Red?  Could I pull it off?  I had always been a brown, or when I got real crazy, a lighter brown.  (Watch out now!!)  Heidi had been working on some projects out of the country, so I didn't feel the pressure to make up my mind, just yet.  After her return, I asked her again about doing my hair.  She informed me she was working on turning her focus toward special events and not being behind the chair as much.  I understood completely.  You see, sometimes in our field, you have to refocus.  However, since she and I had talked about my “big hair change” for so long, I had it set in my mind that if and when it happened, she would be the one doing it.  Well, last week I hit her up, just to talk shop.  After all, Heidi is one of those people who is always happy to talk shop and exchange ideas.  During the conversation, I brought up doing my color.  She said she would go ahead and do it, as this would give us some time to really talk and catch up.  She also informed me that she wanted to do blue (!!), something I had momentarily brought up before, but was reluctant to pursue.  I semi-enthusiastically agreed.  I figured, I might as well....

So, we met up and got right down to business. Heidi bleached out my hair, gave me a nice dark false root and stunning blue hair on top.  Guess what?!  I LOVE IT!  Though I am pretty reserved concerning my hair, I don't feel like I went overboard at all.  The reality of it is - it is just hair and I can change it over and over again, anytime I desire.  If you have been wanting to do something fresh and new, but have been afraid to, my advice is to just go for it!  What is the worst thing that can happen?  You don’t love it and you change it back.
