Today was just one of those lazy days…the “setting up the tripod takes way too much effort” days.

These are the first pictures I’ve taken with my new hair color! I’ve always wanted to try blonde. So after dying my hair red and having it turn practically blonde in Italy, I decided it would be a good time to try out blonde. After many internet searches consisting of “Will I be able to get my hair light enough with the dyes from the store?” and most importantly, the age old question: “If I dye my hair blonde, will it turn orange?” I finally decided to just go out and buy the dye. So I did. I picked out a very blonde one and dyed it, and what do ya know? It barely changed color. However, it did fix my roots very nicely. After being frustrated that it wasn’t working, I dumped some lemon juice on my hair (not quite so literally) and sat outside for a while. I think it made it lighter than the dye did….way to go hair dyes with all the special ingredients and new whatevers. The lemon juice did a way better job. Thank you, lemon juice, you rock! I’m pretty happy with the color now, but may decide to do a few more “lemon juice days” in the sun.

Yes my hair is new and probably didn’t need that much of an explanation…so now back to the topic of this post! Yes where was I…? Ah, I was too lazy to set up the tripod and usually when that happens I just end up not taking pictures at all, but not this time. So what do you think, should I have bothered with these? Yes? No?

Just one more thing: I’ve enjoyed growing my hair and all, but now that it’s out it’s just kind of….blah. Any ideas? Haircuts? Anything would be awesome!
