Before and After
Heidi says my new swoopy bangs should sexily hang across my forehead with a far part. Otherwise I'd look like a little girl. And since I'm in my 30s, I need a age-appropriate hairstyle.
Next, I was barely 16. I had dyed my hair black with a temporary black dye for the school musical. The 3 weeks of the temporary dye came and went and my hair stayed black, so my sister and her friend (both cosmetology graduates) started doing all sorts of things to my hair to strip the color out of it. What I ended up with was a calico hair color. This is how I went to Junior Prom.
As soon as prom was over, I had my sister cut my hair really short. I got my first driver's license with this haircut, of course it was better styled - here I had just woken up in the morning on a camping trip to the Tetons.
Through my senior year, I kept with the same short style. It was so easy to do, just wash and go. Even though I grew my hair a couple of times, I ended up cutting my hair two months before Ryan and I got engaged, so my hair looked like this again.
