New 'Do

Look #1

Look #2

Ok - so in retrospect, as i look at these pics, my hair looks like a frizzy mess. But..in my defense - i NEVER do my hair. And this is why i decided to do this post. I've always taken pride in my ability to shower and go. i have a slight wave in my hair so I never put product in my hair. I sometimes attempt to put my hair up or even put a clip in my hair, but everytime, during my last look in the mirror located by my front door, i take my hair down. i have no clue why. maybe my hair is my security blanket.

But one day recently, it hit me. My hair is one of the few things I can actually focus on that could change my overall look without breaking the bank. I have no clue why i only realized this now - maybe i'm hitting my midlife crisis early?

So there are my first two attempts at "doing" my hair.

Look #1

- used Victoria's Secret root lifter (here's a HUGE secret - guys go gaga over the smell of Victoria's Secret hair products - their R&D team really did their due diligence)

- let hair air dry

- used a 1 1/2" curling iron and curled a few pieces of hair around the crown

- used my favorite jcrew headband

Look #2

- same as above expect put my hair in a high ponytail

- used the end of a rattail comb (ok - who am i kidding -i didn't have a rat tail comb so i used a pen lol )and added some height at the top of my head for depth.

It will only get better from here right? :P
