couple of random pictures

Dawn I went ahead and took a picture of the barrette for you. :D

The red felt is the little cheapy kind you find at wal-mart craft section in squares but the yellow part is the nice felt I bought at a fabric store, it was a little more but a nicer quality. Not the best but I thought it was kind of cute and Emi loved it. and she kept it in her hair all day.

How do some little kids come home at the end of the school day looking perfect? Neither of my ever have, they come home looking like they have played and played all day long with wild hair!

Here is my new hair. I haven't colored it yet again but if you click on the picture and look at it larger you can see the lighter streaks are the lavender purple streaks now. It may be hard to see though but I promise its there. Its a little shorter than last time but the lady didn't have a choice since the other guy butcherd it. I really like it.

My chin is broke out so bad that I'm seriously considering buying proactive for my face.

I'm so damn relieved right now I can't even tell you.

I really like your hair now... these are the times I wish mine wasn't so curly, because I'd love to have that cut, but it never comes out looking like that, I suck at hair prep in general. LOL

I'm glad you're relieved and things are looking up!

Thank you, I think she did a really great job fixing it I can't even explain how bad it was!

You know mine is super wavy/curly/kinky to but I blow it out and then use a straightener. I hate doing it but I hate how it looks otherwise. And you would think with shorter hair it wouldn't take as long but thats a lie because now it takes longer to do all that. I like the cut though so its worth it.

Its like a huge ginormous weight has been lifted off my shoulders!

I don't mind my curls as a general rule, simply because they're pretty darned easy to maintain, so I just suck it up, sigh when I see cute hairstyles such as yours, and move on. LOL!

acnefree is the same as proactive and you can get it at walmart. It's a lot cheaper, too.

Yeah. When I use it it works great. Now if only it worked when I don't use it and it sits there on my bathroom counter.

Love the haircut! I skipped the proactive and ended up buying a 'spa quality' acne line from my local beauty supply store. it's supposed to be for the boys but I use it too and it works pretty well. When I was having a lot of chin issues, I went to a dermatologist who put me on a month long course of antibiotics and that made a HUGE difference! I went from having chronic, ugly red lumps on my chin, to perfectly clear skin! When I stopped the meds, luckily, the effect seems to have lingered. I still break out but it's not nearly as bad or as often and the stuff I bought at the salon supple store seems to work fine on that.

Your hair is darling!! And I don't see the lavender either.

My kids never came home looking good either. Hell Drake wore a new pair of pants to school the other day and came home with holes in the knees and grass stains... I was horrified.

I love the barrette. Seriously.

Damn, thats impressive Drake did that! I thought it was just my kid but I see all these little girls coming out with their hair all perfect and clothes perfect and then here comes my little orphan Emily, I swear I don't send her to school like that.

Thank you on both

Drake is a rough and tumble little guy and normally looks like a ragamuffin. It's sad.
