My hair!
Since this is the first major thing that’s happened in a while, I thought I’d write for once.
I didn’t mention this before, but through one of my roommates, I’m temporairly a hair model. It’s for a high-level competition in Toronto next weekend. I said yes to this in the first place because I thought it would be a great experience to have :)
Originally I was supposed to be an up-do model – so I could keep my hair long and have it coloured. Since then they’ve changed their minds and I’m a cut model instead. This was a little bit unnerving since I have never had my hair shorter than, say, between the back of my neck and shoulder blades. Disregard the fact my hair was not that long when I was born. For most of last week I was worrying about how my hair would look. Before they showed me the cut on a mannequin, I was alright with anything. I saw the cut, and freaked out a bit inside. I’ve grown to appreciate it a bit more, but it will still scare me. It’s basically a short bob cut with a jagged bang. The part I’m most displeased about are the bangs… The last time I had bangs, I was too young to realize how retarded they looked. To grow them out took ages. D:
Right now my hair is coloured predominantly bright orange with purple and yellow. The purple covers the back (I’m not too sure since I haven’t taken a good look at the back yet) and yellow somewhere underneath. An intermediate stage to my colouring was platinum blonde with purple underneath. I wish they kept that instead – it looked so cool! I really felt like Jennifer Garner from Alias with all my colour changes last night. (Did I mention I was there from 9pm until 1am?) They even kept the big chunk of hair the lopped off before colouring.
I’m still a little nervous about the hair cut and how it will look after the ‘fixing’ they promised, but I’ve been reassured by nice friends (and boyfriend) that it will look fine. Easy for them to say — they’re not losing nearly all their hair! Mine will go from down past my shoulder blades as a strawberry-blonde to a super-short cut with crazy colours. It’s like losing a limb already D: Oh well, like they said: It will grow back. Eventually. I’m still pretty excited for this, though. :D
In other news, 2 more weeks of school left! Then finals, then work term after a little break. This term is going by quite quickly. I haven’t been nearly as lazy and prone to procrastination like previous terms, either. Yay!
See pix of hair on flickr :D And yes, that’s my face when I just wake up.
