To Dye or Not to Dye

Ok, for years I have highlighted my hair mostly during the summer. When I got pregnant again, I stopped and grew my natural hair free from any chemicals. My husband always loved my natural silky black hair. He said so on multiple ocassions while I had my highlights on. For about two years, I was quite happy with it.

But now it’s summer again and the idea of highlights is becoming more and more tempting. Jessica Alba—now that’s a whole lot of woman! ; ) Why bring her up? When I first laid eyes on her, she had jet black hair when she was doing Dark Angel or something like that. I never liked her then. I didn’t like the show and I didn’t like her character. I can’t remember the first movie I started liking her in. I do know that all the other movies I’ve seen her in, she had some or a lot of color on her hair.

It was then that I realized maybe that was the swinging vote I needed to finally jump into the “highlighting” wagon. Personally, I’ve always thought that a little splash of color on my hair made me look more approachable. The dark hair always looked very serious on me. However, I will lose the natural shine for sure as my husband had pointed out in the past. I guess it’s time for me to do what makes me feel good though. I kind of stayed with the natural color to please hubby too. It’s been two years, now it’s my turn. Hair Salon, here I come!
