Done did my own hair.

Any woman who slightly cares about her appearance, will agree with me in saying that getting your hair done, isn't affordable. Not even a little bit. I can't tell you how many conversations I've had with the opposite sex, about how "ridiculous" it is, to fork out $60-120 every so often on hair. I always simply came to the conclusion that men will never understand. A woman's hair is like her identity. It's pretty much what defines your physical appearance!!!!!
For years I've simply budgeted accordingly. I've budgeted so I could always have enough money to get my fresh on--i.e. get my hair done. There is something theraputic about getting your hair done! I LOVE IT!  After years of getting my hair done, the other day I came to the conclusion that I knew exactly how to do what the "pro's" do--I realize that people always say it's "terrible for your hair" to use the box color--but come on, chemicals are chemicals people. They're all bad for your hair- box from Walgreens, or the box from some fancy distribution center.
Where am I going with this you might ask?  I'm happy to report that I went out on a very thin limb the other night and I did my own hair. It turned out great! I used the box that was called Loreal Wild Ombre (for dark blonde-light brown). I wanted to brighten up my ends, and that's what I did. I've had my stylist attempt to do a melt the past few times she's done my hair and it's never quite turned out like I want. Things always work when you take matters into your own hands :) --most of the time... I was super scared to mess up, but the worst case scenario would mean I go in and have someone fix it. I wear my hear in a bun half the time anyway--what was an extra day, if it all failed... ? Buuuuuuut, it didn't! I hope to do my own hair now for $10.50 every time! Looking at my calculations, it looks like I will save quite a bit of cash by doing it this way. About $100.00 every other month is going to save me $600.00/year! I'm fine wtih that.
