Spring is coming slowly but surely. I choose to believe that, even though there’s still snow on the ground.

All the signs are there: birds singing in trees, sun shining, people smiling…me abandoning my beanies. Nature is finally waking from its loooong hibernation.

This is also mother nature’s way of kicking me in the ass and saying ”Get thee to a hairdresser.”

And who am I to deny mother nature.

Since I’m lazy, I rarely cut my hair or colour it. Most of the year, my head is a full blown mess of wavy hair that cannot be controlled, which is why I love my hats.

Nowadays, my main requirement for a haircut is manageability. The easier the better. I’ve done my share of experimentation and learned my lessons…the hard way. Let’s just say the pixie cut…not my brightest moment.

I’ve also, recently, embraced the ombre hair style. It’s the perfect solution for a woman that rarely sees her hairdresser. To make things even easier (and cheaper), the base colour is my own. It also has the added bonus of saving my scalp from irritation. So win win.

My hair was also straightened – on a rainy day – so that lasted for about ten minutes.

Anyway, my hair is now a bit more manageable and doesn’t weigh a ton.
