min-makeover gone awry

Oh good God I've completely lost my mind.

So I read something yesterday that apparently Coc0 Chan3l said: All women are beautiful and pretty. Pretty leaves and beauty is left behind. It's a shame though that most women want to be pretty and don't want to be beautiful instead.

I mean I'm paraphrasing completely. But the thing is that this is a lesson that I need to learn. My next door neighbour is a hairdresser so I went to the salon today. She had told me that she could do a great job bumping up my colour. Anyhow. So she did it this morning and I completely freaked out (not on her, in the washroom of the salon). I had communicated natural and this colour had tons of an artificial red tone in it. I didn't feel good about it at all, although I'll conceed that it looked pretty good (were I more of a glamour-puss sort of girl).

Anyhow.

So the hairdresser put a neutral over it and now it looks great. Through the process though I learned the following lesson: It's often not worth tampering with your natural 'beauty'. I've got to learn that because the wrinkles are multiplying and things are changing and there is no going back. I am a beautiful person on the inside and I have to let that guide how I feel about the outside and not the reverse.

There is nothing wrong with me, just as I am.
