Hair Update

I'm happy to report that my hair is no longer black. Now it's a really really dark brown. Lorinda took me to see the woman who does her hair today, and she washed it twice with peroxide in an attempt to strip the dye out of my hair. She told me that that would be much less damaging than bleaching it and starting over.

After two washes with peroxide though, she told me it probably wouldn't get any lighter but would still get more dried out with another wash. So we stopped. Lorinda and I were both disappointed with the outcome, so we decided to stop at a hair salon on the way home. Even though they were just closing up for the night, we were able to talk to them about my options.

The woman I spoke with told me she could give me brown highlights to lighten up the overall appearance of my hair. So I'm going in first thing tomorrow morning to have highlights put in. I feel really good about this place, and I am hopeful that my hair will look somewhat normal again after tomorrow. I can't wait!
