I dye my hair.
And it’s really because I’m impatient and a procrastinator that I die my hair. Because there are other things that I should be doing, like you know? Clean. But I don’t want to do that.
The impatience comes in to play because my friend couldn’t do it. And I wanted it done.
Now.
So I’m doing it myself.
I’ll probably look like I’m ready to perform in the circus when it’s all done.
And it’s not done. Because I’m blogging while I’m waiting for it to be rinsed. Except I forgot to set the timer. I wonder what happens if you leave hair dye in longer than you’re supposed to?
Maybe I’ll be bald when all is said and done.
Who knows.
And, in case you were wondering, I bought Garnier Nutrisse today. Know why?
Because the box says, “The non-drip formula spreads easily and smells great while you color.”
However, it drips and I guess I need to ask the marketing peeps at Garnier what their definition of “smells great” is. Because, if they mean smells like wine that’s been sitting in the bottle for way to long mixed with harsh chemicals, then yes. It smells great.
And it drips.
But while I’m waiting, let me tell you a few cool things going on in the land of Heather these days…
I’ve got some great reviews coming up for you in the next few weeks… and if you’re in the Greensboro area, please consider attending BlogHer ‘08 Reach Out on October 18th. (If not, there are lots of other cities that they are coming to…)
Not only will I be there, I’ll be speaking!
And I’ve recently been asked to be a contributor at Mommy 4-1-1 on the topic of single parenting, so please take a minute and pop over there and read my inagural post.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to go get this crap out of my hair so that I can see how much damage I’ve done to my hair.
Perhaps I should’ve done this on a night that I wasn’t planning on going out…
Oh well… live and learn, right?
Until next time…

I hope the dye job turned out good! I am at the mercy of others when it comes to dying my hair. I am a disabled nurse (two neck surgeries and need a third) and I can’t hold my arms up long enough to section up my hair and apply the color. My partner Susan usually does it, but she always misses a spot…or two…but I would never ever say anything for fear that she will quit doing it for me! And who can afford to go to the salon? It’s outrageous what they charge! I use Excellance cream by Loreal, and it doesn’t drip very much, if at all.

So where’s the picture of your new hair Miss Thang?

My mom uses that stuff! I use Revlon because it’s cheap!!
I’ve thought about doing reviews…but I just don’t think I’m ready for that yet. Maybe when I finally get myself on a schedule of actually posting on my own blog instead of just posting comments on others, I’ll get to that! 
I want to see the pic! Did it turn out well???

I can always find something to do when I want to procrastinate. I kind of like doing my hair as well, but I get more bang out of tweezing my eyebrows or something.

I’m a do-it-yourself-dyer who puts it off until you can see the whites of my roots. Two tips: 1) if you have friends that travel, ask them to bring you the disposable shower caps – keeps the stuff from running everywhere, and 2) find a ratty robe or shirt and have that be your dedicated “dyeing” outfit – you won’t mind as much when the stuff does drip anyway and gets on the collar.
