Boring to Blue

My hair lately has been a tad bit boring. Meaning: it's back to its normal brown with some natural sun lightening in it and I am just over it. So I am going back to the blue. Although, it's time for A LOT OF BLUE. Last time I went through this process, it was more of black with some blue highlights.

But this time I'm using Wonder Woman as my inspiration. I'm currently in my blue period - whatever that means exactly for me. But it does mean that I am ready to be fearless and in-your-face with my new hair color and confident personality.  Let's hope this comes out as I planned for I have a date on Friday and don't want to have to wear a fedora to cover up a botched hair job.


What is it about hair color that is so defining about who we are? I told my bestie that I was thinking about going all teal, or something equally as bold, and he asked if we were scene kids from 2007.  No. I am not. But I did live through that horrible fashion statement all while selling merch or tour managing for ________________ (insert generic scene band name in the appropriate blank) and am certainly not ready to do it all again. Though, I do miss the open road and if a legit touring job came my way it would be difficult to say no. In fact, I probably wouldn't. What do we want our hair color to say about us? My blue/black combination was inspired by the colors on a raven's wing and currently suit me well. But what would a red do for my personality? Or a bright pink? It seems as if this splash of color upon our scalps seems to spice up our personalities and creativity.  Or maybe it's just me?

And if you're curious, I am listening to ATL by Butch Walker on repeat. It happens often in my life.
