Why Do I Do These Things?

A couple months back I decided to strip my hair as I've wanted to go blonde for ages so I used Colour B4, it worked but wasn't the light colour I wanted and ended up coppery so I added an ash medium blonde as that's suppose to tone the red tones down but my hair came out darker again so couple weeks back I gave myself highlights using a Jerome Russell kit which looked good as I had different tones of blonde/copper but no one seemed to notice so it wasn't striking enough so on Friday I lightened my hair with Live XXL colour - max blonde but it was so patchy 

Patchy Hair

with orange, blonde and brown so I rushed out (yes I actually went out like it) to get bleach as thought it would get rid of all the patches and give me a blank canvas.

So on Saturday I applied two boxes of Bblonde maximum lift blonding kit by Jerome Russell and the result was still patchy and very orange. Nothing like the picture on the box. It actually looks better in the picture but it is bad.

Ginger

I put a blonde Nutrisse colour on and hoped for the best, but as you can see from the pictures below it came out a lighter gingery blonde.

I went out like this but to my surprise a lady who was walking behind me said she was admiring my strawberry blonde hair as she passed........urm really!

 

My hair is now well and truly frazzled at the ends so now I'm thinking why the hell didn't I just pay out to a hairdresser as I've damaged my hair and will end up spending more to correct it plus I'm now thinking blonde may not even suit me. 

Sunday I put yet another colour on but this time a chocolate brown as I've given up on the blonde idea.

Jogging Bottoms Are For Inside or Exercise

While I have been on maternity leave trying to get out and about i've seen so many mums in jogging bottoms, unflattering baggy tops, hair tied back and not having time to put make up on all blaming it on having kids. (I'd love to give some of these makeovers).
I've always tried to make the best of myself and I would never go out without my make up on because it makes me feel better about myself but a comment another mum made in a mum and baby group I went to a few months back said " I don't bother with make up as i'm not on the pull anymore" it made me so angry, is that what other women think about make up or maybe me....REALLY. I backed my corner and told her i've always loved putting on make up so i'm not about to change because I have a baby, i'm not me without make up.

I don't understand the attitude's of some women you don't have to completly forget about yourself because you have children.  Yes it is harder and yes you don't have as much time for you as you used to and yes financially it can hit you but why oh why do they make themselves look worse - I can't stand it.

Dita Von Teese

It is a huge life change having a child and you do have less time for yourself so maybe some days if I am staying in I don't bother as much but I still always feel better with a little make up. Which isn't a 3 hour job that people think you need, It takes me seconds,  while my little man crawls around or playing with his toys.  


I'm Loving the 50's look at the moment with red lips, styled hair and figure enhancing fashion wouldn't it be nice to go back in time and see women dressed like this every day. 

Women (and men) should make the best of themselves.
