After years of having hair all the same length, pony-tails, and infrequent haircuts, this California artist decided to try a Big Girl haircut. This means layers, “product”, styling, and tools. If it doesn’t work out for my inner slob, I can always wear a cap or grow it out or both.
When I finished with my hair tools this a.m. Michael asked me if I like my new cut. I said, “Not yet, because it is doing this flip-up thing and I want it to turn under. I think flipping up is in style, but that doesn’t mean I like it.” He responded with, “It looks like you just slept on it wrong.”
This afternoon, after chiseling paint off a porch post (got about 3 square inches done. . . please pass the caustic toxic paint-stripper juice), washing my car and digging a bucket full of weeds out of the lawn (about the same level of impact as paint chiseling), he said, “Your hair looks good”.
Well, bummer. I don’t have time to fix it using that method every day. Guess I’m stuck with the Slept-Wrong look for awhile. You can see how it looks at the upcoming student art show (unless I am wearing a hat).

Diane, how is it that I can knit but can’t fix my own hair??
… sit and knit … you’ll feel better … 🙂
Cheryl, wasn’t that a hoot? And there won’t be any photos for awhile until these too short bangs get some length (it hides the eleven between my eyebrows).
Melissa, it really isn’t all that different – none of my drawing students noticed. Or perhaps they did and were choking back laughter, or were just too polite to say what they were thinking. Hugs back to you – your hair ALWAYS looks great!
Good Morning Beautiful!
I am sure the new do looks fab! It takes me awhile to retrain my hair when I have a new do, so give your hair some time to get used to the new treatment of product, tools and expensive hair brushes. Hugs!!
Love the story of what it took to get the “your hair looks good” compliment 🙂 And love how you said you don’t have time to use that method every day 🙂 Now you need to show us a pic of your new do!
