In anticipation of our cruise( T minus 9 days and counting) I went to get my hair cut, colored and highlighted on Tues night. I decided to try a new salon( dangerous, I know) and was looking forward to seeing what this person could do for me.
We sat down for the consultation and I told her what I wanted. I wanted my natural color back, plus some highlights and a cut.
As she is evaluating my hair the conversation went something like this:
ME - " I want my natural color with some highlights"
HER - " Well your natural color is gray"
ME - "Um, no it's not... it's brown"
HER -" Well all I see is gray - what color brown would you like?"
ME - "GRRRRR"
I pulled out a piece from underneath my hair and showed her the color I wanted. I didn't quite get what I wanted, it's a little darker, but it works.
Gray! HMPF!
Oh I am so with you on this and no, gray is not a natural haircolor! I was not born gray and I will not go gray. Totally unnatural! I enjoy picking my natural color now, whether I'm in the mood for brown, red, black or blond, if I'm wearing it, it IS my NATURAL color!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you! Although I am not the best looking blond - so I tend to stay in my natural range!
ReplyDeleteWell in my case the color in question isn't gray, it's white.... but I know JUST what you mean! I feel very lucky that I can now be whatever color I feel like being at the time. YAY! And have a fabulous time on your cruise!
ReplyDeleteYou should have fired her on the spot. You're not so gray that she couldn't see what your natural brown color was/is. You want a stylist that compliments you and works for that tip!
ReplyDeleteMy hair is blonde but it does get dull in the fall.Grey is not a good thing to have in hair.
ReplyDeleteOh and We ( DH & I love the music choices especially Monty Python)
ReplyDeleteMy hair is dark brown so the gray really shows through.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I love the music too!
Horror! That stylist would've been on the ground after a comment like that to me. I'm impressed by your restraint.
