The New Me

So, without further adieu, here is the new, blonder me!




I suppose I should post a photo of myself from before the blonding, eh? Right. For a point of reference, here I am with my 100% God-given hair color.




I quite like the blonde! In 5 - 6 weeks, I'll go back to the salon to get more high-lights, going slightly lighter.

By the way, my hair stylist is the best!!! I HIGHLY recommend Melanie the Magic Maker (as I've decided to call her) at Shag hair salon in South Boston. This past Thursday was my fist time stepping into the wonderful loft space that is Shag. I had been thinking of going there for awhile, actually, as my place of employment is on the same block. When it comes to hair salons, if I am happy with the services, I'm a very loyal client. Before Shag, I had been a regular client of the same Newbury Street salon for the past 3 years or so. Sadly, my preferred stylist left that salon to pursue an entirely different career. I agreed to see a different stylist in which the Newbury Street salon recommended to me as a replacement, however the replacement seemed unfortunately mediocre. Thus, I began my search for a new hair salon home and found Shag...and boy, is this place is great! The stylists are all very skilled, obviously enjoy where they work, and are happy with their jobs. The owner seems cool and laid back, and of course, the complimentary wine is a nice touch.

The highlights looks amazing, girl! But your locks were clearly amazing & beautiful before, so youy should just rock it however you want! I've loved reading your just-born blog so far! And I know Melanie at Shag well, she is amazing. She got her start at Liquid, where my Jason the blondeing guru works. Next time you see her, tell her Kitty says hello!

Wow! Thanks, Kitty, I truly appreciate the compliments! I will absolutely tell Melanie "hello" for you...come to think of it, she did mention she was a stylist there (I guess it just didn't register in my mind at the time).

Thanks for reading!
