Shocking New Hair!
Why shocking? Well, because for the first time in three and a half years, it is entirely one color. That’s right, the streaks are gone. As I’ve let my hair grow, they’ve gotten harder for me to maintain on my own (well, without making my bathroom look like an abattoir), so I decided it was time.
You might also notice a slight texture difference. In the last couple of years, my hair has gone from stick-straight (which it was my entire childhood) to wavy. It’s been getting a little curlier, so I decided to play. Since Friday, I’ve been using some of the Curly Girl methods (following in the footsteps of my darling friends Cristi and Rosi, who have some of the awesomest curls I’ve ever seen), and what you see here is the result of that. We’ve moved beyond waves, and those are some honest-to-goodness ringlets there. I’m hoping as I continue to do this, I’ll get even more defined curl.
Now to warn my brother so that he can start thinking about what he wants to do with it the next time we’re in Vegas.

Wow! That’s loverly, Pam! I have spent a lot of time, money, and tears on trying to have wavy hair, and here you achieve it so easily…gah!
If you’re done with your stripes, can I have them??

What’s with the suddenly turning wavy/curly? My stick straight hair has been going that way too. I’d like to keep the stick straight hair, without having to mess with it in the am.
Oh, and your curls are cute, and you look great in this picture!!

First I had to look up abattoir. Way to make me google first thing in the morning
Also, my hair has gone wavy as well, especially since I cut it off. Can you linky anything specific about the curly methods you use?
June 10th, 2009 at 7:29 am
Nevermind on the linky. Found some google stuff and some odd arguments about which curly girl methods to use. Methinks I will just get the book from the library.

That’s a great picture of you! Your eyes look so big, and I love the curly-girl look.

It’s so cute! I am jealous. I wish my hair would go curly. Sigh.

I know what you mean! My hair’s been really curly recently, to– oh, wait…

Very pretty – it looks like mine now
June 10th, 2009 at 10:37 am
I think it looks great — I love the curls!!! I’ve been growing mine out a little bit as well; it’s a bit wavy.
June 10th, 2009 at 3:30 pm
Adorable!! Girls with curls are lucky indeed!
June 10th, 2009 at 6:59 pm
Wow, curls! There’s no method in the world that would make my stick-straight hair curl, but I love those ringlets. They’re very cute.

Who are you and what did you do with Pam?
Seriously – love it! Love the curls! It must feel odd to not have those streaks anymore…

Never mind the hair… you have the prettiest eyes! Maybe it’s the new ‘do that makes them more the focal point.

What’s up with the straight to curly? Me too! Thanks for the Curly Girls tip, bought the book a week ago and my wavy hair is now officially curly. I’m loving it almost as much as lip gloss!

Did you know you had curls??? Wow!! I covet them.
