Must Dye Hair

I usually dye my hair every 4 months. It has been a fine balance between not overly damaging my hair vs not looking overly hideous. It has been slightly more than 4 months and my grey hair are publicly reminding me to do something. I wanted to but didn't find a good day to take leave.

Bcos of my non-action, my grey hair had decided to shame me. It was so bad, that I have 2 colleagues commenting about my grey hair and telling me to go dye them. It has come to the point of cannot wait and I whined to Daddy Lim. My whinning absolutely worked and he suggested for me to do what I needed.

Such chance wait no man. The next moment, I was in the hair salon. Muahahaha. Ok, it was actually the next day after work and I outsourced child caring responsibilities. I was lucky that the usual salon was able to serve me despite being a crowded Friday evening and without prior appointment.

I am quite sure that I had flattened my butt from all the sitting; I was in the salon for almost 3 hours. I wanted a shade as light as possible and yet be able to cover my grey hair. The stylist had to smack thick chunk of dye on my hair. I felt as if my head weighed a ton after all the dye was applied. It was good neck training.

To play it safe, they kept the dye on for extra time to make sure that the grey hair would be covered. The end result was worth the suffering. It was a shade lighter than what I originally had.
After keeping my hair at one length for many months, I have asked for layering. There was so much hair on the floor after it was done. My head suddely feels so tight. No wonder the weighing machine was kinder to me this morning. Lol.
I was just in time to pick the boy from class. Perfect timing and a happy me.
