Skunky Cougar

If Punky Brewster were a 40-something suburban divorced woman, she would be a skunky cougar... which is how I look and feel.

This week I received a gratis cut and color for agreeing to "model" clothing and hair at a Ladies Night Out in a salon -- in mall!

I appreciate freebies, but this particular freebie combines my two most loathed hair trends --
  1. highlights that look like 1970s "frosting hair"
  2. the chopped up bob with various layers showing
I was explicit about wanting one length and not wanting any sort of layered choppiness to my hair. Additionally, I was very explicit about wanting subtlehighlights. Trust me when I say that photo hides a multitude of sins.

One washing and my natural wave will make those layers look even worse unless I commit to flat ironing. So much for growing out my hair. After June 7th, I will be channeling Sinead O'Connor circa 1987.

I do want what I haven't got -- my perfect hair style.

Yes - it's a bit tame for you, Gina. I loved your purple hair from a year or two ago.So what are you planning?

I'm currently in hair hell myself. Growing out a pixie shag. My hair is so thick that it can easily assume a helmet appearance. Seems like I have two choices -- another cut, or rock a headscarf all summer.
