Every time I wash my hands, I get real close to the mirror and count the number of gray hairs that I see. It used to be none and then one and two and three and then well, I don’t really want to talk about it. I’ve always been a big fan of getting my hair colored but it’s so expensive so I haven’t had it done it since December.
I WILL NEVER TORTURE MYSELF AGAIN.
My appointment to get my hair color is in an hour and I don’t even care what color she does, I just don’t want gray anymore. I mean, I’m 25 *cough*, who has this much gray hair at thirty-f….25? (I’m not really sure how I’ll pay for it, I’m thinking I’ll bat my eyelashes and offer her the broken nutri-grain bar in my handbag.)
In other news, I’m really sick. (I texted my hairstylist last night and warned her) Severe sore throat, fever, my ears, neck and head hurt, I’m basically miserable. I woke up in the middle of the night to pee and it was all I could do to hurry and lie back down because the cold almost killed me. I don’t think I have ever been so cold in my life.
I may have cried.
Leave me alone.
So, along with my hair appointment today (which is very, very important) I should probably see a physician because I could possibly die from the sick today.
But at least my hair will be pretty.
Happy Friday, friends.
Yuck that sounds awful (except the hair apt, that sound fabulous). Take care of yourself Beth! I hope you’re feeling better soon.
Great to see you here today Beth! Last Friday just wasn’t Friday without your “FMC”. I hope you feel better really soon.
aww feel better. I also just got my hair done this week on tuesday after having gone more than a year since the last time i had it done. at the age of 29 im almost all grey. premature grey runs in my family. lucky me. I also am getting sick. miserable sore throat, nothing tastes right, and I am starting to hurt all over. so yeah i feel ya. feeling sick is no fun at all.
I went gray early too… I am 30 and get my hair colored every five weeks. It is depressing. Bah genetics.
I’ve broken down and colored my hair from a box….
Except the last time…it wasn’t really the color I was going for. Ooops.
But, man are those gray hairs going crazy. I tend to pull them because they like to stick up at odd angles around my head, but after a while, all that plucking is going to leave me bald
No go to the dr. and get well. K?
I SO get it!! My gray hair is ridiculous!! Go every 4 weeks to have it “taken care of”!!!
I’m sorry you are not feeling better today……get yourself in for a strep test!!!! Rest up my friend!!
xoxo
Oh beautiful mama Beth, no one will fault you when you cry because you’re sick and it hurts.
I cry all the time when I’m sick. Usually it’s from the frustration of being sick when kids need me (that IS a stupid reason, right?)
Hope you are healthy soon!! And I’m sure your new hair will be glorious!!!
I totally get the hair thing. I am 33 and very gray, although you wouldn’t know it since I get my hair colored every 5 weeks and highlighted every 10. Yes, I spend a small fortune on it (and maybe hide that fact from my husband) but I AM that vain. Nothing makes you look older and more tired than gray hair.
Sorry to hear that you’re not feeling well. Feel better!
Oh no! Hope you feel better soon!! But at least you get some alone time to go get your hair done.
So how was the hair appointment? I hope you get to feeling better and can enjoy the weekend with your family.
Isn’t gray a sign of distinguish?
ha. haha!! sorry, it’s not really funny, but here’s to hoping you feel better!!
I’m 25 too! Have been for 10 years … or so…ahem.
Hope you feel better soon.
Maybe I’m crazy, but I think a few grey hairs add character. But do what makes you feel beautiful, because that is an important thing in life. Hope you feel better soon!
Oh my, I was upset when a young girl at the doctors office asked me I ever thought about dying my hair…I was a little shock and didn’ know if I should be insulted or take the advice, lol.
I may be the minority but at 30 I can officially begin counting my grays, and I will say I have no plans to cover them up! Think how liberating it is to let them go and not worry about covering them! Embrace my friend embrace! We can be “silver fox” together!
Feel better soon!
