Splitting Hairs....

When I got pregnant with my son I stopped dying my hair again.After he was born I just stuck with it instead of running back to the hair dye like I did after I had my daughter.I know its considered safe to dye your hair when pregnant,I'm just REALLY paranoid and take an extremely natural approach to everything in my life when I was with child(I even cut out coffe,yes.ME!Cutting out coffee!).I also decided I wanted to grow my hair out.I have a pattern of wanting it long and then hacking it off again.Maybe its because I'm short but I start to feel like cousin It when my hair is too long.Its thick and wavy and I just get frustrated and end up wearing it back.

Well earlier last week I discovered my first gray hair!I told myself I would start dying my hair again when I went gray and enjoy my natural color for awhile.I've been dying my hair since I was 14 so the 3 year break my hair had this last time was nice.Only thing is with long hair its a huge and expensive pain in the arse to maintain.Growing it out had lost its charm as I had cut my hair to my shoulders when cut my bangs back.Wasn't quite good enough.I went big yesterday and look a few deep breaths in front of the mirror to work up the nerve and 20 minutes later,DIY inverted bob!




With step one done I can know easily dye my hair now that I don't have a ton of it!I haven't quite decided what color I want.I'm stuck between dark red or eggplant purple.Leaning towards the purple right now.I was a bit concerned if the kids would be freaked out or the hubby would hate it but everyone seemed to approve.Except maybe Ollie.He kept cocking his head at me for the first hour.Maybe he was just trying to use his Jeidi mind tricks and tell me he wanted treats,that could be it.
