The Road to Hair Nirvana

This is what my hair looked like when I woke up this morning. Not the greatest quality picture and the lighting's bad (makes my hair look way darker on top than it actually is, but it gives you an idea anyway...

Those of you who don't know me personally or who don't generally see me roll out of bed in the morning have no idea how impressive this is, but trust me, I usually wake up with my hair sweaty, slightly greasy and plastered to my head on at least one side. I may be able to wear my hair down the day after washing it, but trust me, I won't be loving it, and more often then not it goes straight into a braid, ponytail or bun. This morning however, I was beyond impressed with my hair. I may possibly have actually made a few extra trips to the bathroom just to check out my hair in the mirror.

So, how did I reach this amazing second-day hair nirvana? It's been quite the journey, let me tell you.

Not The Hair!

At the age of 4, Sasha has had 4 haircuts. Two of them were planned, while the other two were decidedly not. Her first haircut was courtesy of her cousin Tristan. We spent Mother's Day 2009 at my sister and brother-in-law's house. The adults were hanging out and relaxing while the kids played all over the house. At one point Sasha came and told us that her cousin Tristan had done her hair. I glanced at her, saw he'd given her a ponytail and told her it looked nice. When we got home, I got a call from my sister informing me that I might want to check Sasha's hair since she had just found long blond hair in the wastebasket. Sure enough, Tristan had given Sasha bangs, and I hadn't even noticed.
