Why A Blog?

I went back and forth about whether or not to actually write a blog, trying to decide if it was cliche or not, and decided no, it is therapeutic for me and also who knows maybe my weird sense of humour might even cheer someone else up when they're having a shitty day! So whether you can relate or you just want a laugh feel free to browse and read....get to know me and maybe even get to know something about yourself along the way?!

The 1980s called....they want their hair back!! (Growing out my Pixie Cut - stage 2)

So stage 2 of growing my hair out....rolls eyes...there's gonna be a lot of stages!! As i previously mentioned my hair grows super fast and having it both short and blonde is somewhat killing me!! Despite all the people who say "awe but i like the roots" - kinda defeats the whole purpose no?? Alas, i digress....where I'm at now is surely one of the worse stages of growing your hair out!


Oh, the funny hair drama! (on the blog @ www.picassohairfeathers.com)

I did manage to get my roots done as I had previously mentioned which brought my hair back to its dazzling white state....which my hairdresser decided she hated and that its was too much damage to my hair considering I originally cut it to start afresh!! (Yeah...Id forgotten that too!) I do also intend to make an updated video about my hair now and how it looks in comparison tot he first video I made which was of course my starting point! So yeah...despite my love of my now amazingly white hair the hairdresser decided to restore some pigment into my hair using a darker blonde hair dye - no more than 2 shade darker than the bleach...'cas apparently that's important? So now I do have still very blonde hair that the hairdresser has decided to make somewhat darker in stages! (I should at this point say this was the best and most hilarious trip to a hairdressers that I have ever had - this woman should get her own reality show)  So now i'm relying very much on my conditioning products so that my hair doesn't get completely fried - again thankfully its still in super good condition. 

One thing that really is starting to get to me is the fact that my hair is now completely uncontrollable! I'm becoming - in the words of my friend Dean - a character from anime! Think blonde sky high spiky bed head! NOT ATTRACTIVE!! Yet thankfully I can laugh at myself and thankfully my friends are super accepting of my #iwokeuplikethis snapchats, the downside however is that i'm not starting to fool myself into thinking my hair is growing at a rapid pace and i'm feeling very repunzelish! Another downside is i have no hair style! Literally none!! There is pretty much nothing i can do to make my hair look amazing during this stage of the growing out period - and here are the pictures to prove it!! As always I have my fringe pinned back - just cant cope with having hair in my eyes!!

Apologies for the no make-up (impromptu photos)

As you can see from the pictures there has been a good bit of growth but its taking a while for the front to catch up with the back which i guess is obvious considering' the front was so much shorter but i'm dealing with it as best i can (Hair pins are my saviour) - this is about 2 months of regrowth at this stage so not doing too badly as far as i'm concerned!! I'm trying not to use any heat on my hair at the moment too and sleeping with an intensive conditioner in my hair at least twice a week so i think that's helping the regrowth and also the condition of my hair. I will post again about my hair once it starts to change shape or conform or not look like a member of A-ha!

Peace Out
