A Hair Collage

by BooMama on 6 March 2008

in Rambling

So here I am.

At 7:30 in the morning.

In my pajamas.

With no make-up on.

Trying to show the internets what the Hair Wizard did yesterday.

So as you can see, my photography is magical.

I was trying to show you the front and the back AT THE SAME TIME, but that requires skillz I don’t possess. And seeing as how I’m home alone, this is as good as it’s gonna get right now.

As a sidenote, I would like to report that yesterday, when I was leaving Mama and Daddy’s house to go to my appointment with the Hair Wizard, I looked at my child straight in the eyes and said, “Alex? You make sure you mind your grandparents, okay? Have an obedient heart, okay?”

And he looked right back at me for about five full seconds, and then he whispered:

“It’s okay, Mama. Remember? I’m at my grandparents’ house. I can do whatever I want here.”

I do believe he’s figured out the system.

Fantastic hairdo girl! And I love that he whispered. Like grandpa and grandma weren’t in the know… hilarious.

Oh and I’m so lovin’ the hair. I’m glad you refrained from using the home hair coloring kit! Bee-u-tiful!

I love that color and the haircut looks really great!
It makes me want to cut my hair short again :)
Yes my 2 boys have also figured out the grandparent thing – they get SPOILED when they are with them!
It makes for a fun week after when I have to undo everything :)
Blessings,
Kim

Girl, it’s about time you posted! I was getting worried ‘n stuff.

That wizard is amazing. Now I need to go find me a hot air balloon, so I can go see her. I have never, ever left the salon with my hair coifed; looking so pretty and such.

*Sigh*

Super cute haircut!! The color is perfection!

Oh the hair!!! It’s a keeper.

Did he whisper it or did he announce it? If they whisper I like to think they are still humble but if they have a DUH with it then it’s time for me to take ‘em down a notch.

Love the hair – I can see why you call her the Wizard. My oldest definitely has the grandparent thing figured out too! And they (the grandparents) will admit right to it with no shame at all.

Kelly @ Love Well March 6, 2008 at 1:14 pm

Hoo-boy. That comment by Alex is CLASSIC. And I bet the grandparents just smiled when you told them what he said.

Addie March 6, 2008 at 1:25 pm

A wizard indeed! You look gorgeous, and look at how great you look without the make-up! And I am not lying, I wouldn’t do that. I’d just say, oh, the color is just lovely.

Sassy is thy name!

pinkmommy March 6, 2008 at 1:25 pm

LOVE the hair. Both the cut and color are just perfect.

And my parents have the same system…guess it is universal. My dad always says, “If I knew how much fun grandkids were going to be, I would have skipped having kids and gone straight to the grandkids.” Hilarious.

LOVE it! You look so sassy! She does a really good job!

Okay, I’ve been lurking your blog for awhile, but felt very compelled to comment today. I LOVE your hair! I’ve been having blah hair for, oh, three years now, but I’m cutting mine like yours as soon as possible! I’m sure it won’t look near as cute without the perfect sunkissed highlights, but I’ll survive somehow. :)

Heather* March 6, 2008 at 1:43 pm

I love the hair.

And ROFL about A. I swear, he could be my kid… it sounds EXACTLY like something they’d say!

You have a very wise hair wizard and a very wise little Howard. Your skillz are in the making internets smile and chuckle department, and lordy I need chuckles and smiles these days. Thanks Sophie.

Lovin the hair! I I couldn’t help but see the “STATE” shirt….would those marroon letters represent Mississippi State? Just had to ask.

Funny kid!

I lurve the hair!!!!

Love, love, LOVE the new “do!”

Ashleigh March 6, 2008 at 2:54 pm

Loverly, just loverly. Tempts me to go blonde. Now THAT would take some wizardry.

So that’s the way the system works?? I was hoping to get around it since we’re at the grandparents’ so much these days… but I guess it’s just a lost cause?

When I saw the title, I just knew it was going to be a great post. I love your hair! You really do have good hair, woman. And the Wizard did a great job. That little bit with Alex at the end cracked me up.

Love the hair! No wonder he’s called the wizard.

What is the deal with the last picture?

Does the wizard handle butts too? LOL!

You should treat the wizard to a coffee, or a whole dinner for doing that good!

Love the colors in your bathroom, the green and gray!

You know, I hate it when the mum-in-law overrides what I tell my daughter. But, he’s figured out the behavior loop hole. Figured it out early. Good for him!

Kelly March 6, 2008 at 5:53 pm

1. The color of your hair is breath taking!!!! Seriously. That blonde is SO great!
2. Love the State shirt.
3. That’s precious what Alex said. Grandparents are the best!

Thank you for feeling comfortable enough to share even before you’re officially dressed…that’s how you know we’re friends!

Michelle Bentham March 6, 2008 at 8:42 pm

Hey there… Alex has officially snatched my heat! He is priceless. My whole family listens to his little nuggets of wisdom when you share them with the internets (uh…that would include me… did you like the third person reference to myself… Guess I just blew that, huh?) Anyway. Priceless, and I love the do by the way… It is how I would like my hair to look, but my Hair Wizard might actually be a warlock and so I have sworn them off completely and am letting my hopeless mess grow until I can get it cut the way I want IT! But, anywho enough about me… this blog is about you!

** :o\… that should read Alex stole my heart, but apparently I am dropping my “r”‘s these days… so saw-wee. Have a blessed weekend friend.

While I like the magic the Hair Wizard endowed up your crown, it’s your shirt that made me smile.
What pjs could sleep any better than State?
My daughter seems to have figured out the system as well. She knows that granny allows TWO HUGE pieces of chocolate cake for dessert where mom and dad only allow one. small. teeny. tiny. piece.

Love the do, MamaBoo! (Sorry about the switcharoo on your name, but it was begging to rhyme. And because, ahem, I moonlight as a rap star, I had to run with it. Inspiration and all that.)

And I do believe you are right about your son, lol. Now he just needs one of those shirts that says, “What happens at Grandmas, stays at Grandmas” with pictures of cookies and milk on the front. ;)
