It was time. The 3 of us needed haircuts--badly. We all look a bit different. Quite a bit. Joseph chose a buzz cut. It's been awhile since he's had super short hair and he looks so OLD!! I got those crazy my-baby-is-growing-up-so-fast teary eyes right there in the shop. (Of course, I cry at the drop of a hat these days, but still.....) I get to call him Buzz, at least for awhile.
Elijah relieved some of my mom tears when he got a regular cut but requested a double mohawk. He saw it in a book about monkeys (Bobby the Bold) and decided he wanted it today. It's temporary. The sides aren't actually shaved. We've been calling him Double Mo.
My haircut wasn't quite as fun. It's pretty short again, but necessary. The medication is changing my hair. It's a different texture. It has these weird curls, but not enough to be attractive and it isn't holding color. I colored my hair a week ago and the color has basically washed out. My hairstylist told me this happens a lot with clients on medications.
Just a note: If you are on any meds and you are getting your hair colored, tell your stylist first. You can get some wacked out hair if you are on certain meds and you choose certain colors.
Buzz and Double Mo are making a lot of noise.....Time to investigate.

ReplyDeleteHey Patti! You can have your stylist order a pre-treatment that strips the meds out of the hair... or makes it take color/perms better. Years ago when I did perms and traditional color this is what my stylist did. Hair. Glad it's on our heads - but wish we didn't have to mess with it, eh? Love ya, Aunt Bossy
