Join in the Not Me! Monday fun brought to the land of Blog from MckMama over at My Charming Kids!
Chilly and the kids did NOT call me Kelly Clarkson all weekend. My stylist would NEVER do this to me especially when I told him this (see photo below) is what I wanted….I did NOT show him a photo of the color I wanted….My hair is NOT even more auburn than before with huge streaks of bleach blonde…(not that I didn’t enjoy my previously auburn colored hair, I just wanted to shake things up for summer…)
I did NOT make it extremely clear that I wanted all coppery red tones out of my hair. I did NOT say repeatedly I wanted soft ash blonde for summer. I did NOT say to him NO CHUNKY HIGHLIGHTS when I saw the bleach cream on the color stand. I did NOT repeatedly try to make sure he was very clear on the whole ash blonde idea. He apparently did NOT give a crap about what I (the customer) wanted. I am NOT sporting the exact hairstyle in the Kelly Clarkson photo at this moment. I do NOT look like a skunk with a lopsided stripe when I pull my hair back because my bangs are NOT a huge streak of bleach blonde hair on one side. It is NOT the worst color job I’ve ever had…EVER….
I did NOT contact the salon to correct this hair nightmare ASAP because I do NOT have a mini vacation coming this weekend while NOT attending my daughter’s Irish dance competiton in Scottsdale. I did NOT ride an emotional rollercoaster all weekend because of my hair. I wear big girl panties…I would NEVER act so silly over my hair…just ask my family who I did NOT drive crazy with my whining. I will NOT stop torturing you with my continued whining here…
I am NOT delirious with delight that it is JUNE!!!!! I am NOT hoping that all of this crazy black rain cloud of energy that has been around me for the last two months has gone bye bye! I am NOT focusing on lots of positive vibes today!
Hope you are NOT having a great start to the month of June!
xoxo…

It seems that I always end up with the chunky highlights too – either that or completely blonde… Which I don’t like being either! Totally feel your pain! I’m sure you’ll get it all straightened out soon!

Oh, Dawn, I can relate to this more than you know!
We finally don’t do bleach in my hair anymore, but do highlights with blonde color, and it’s definitely not as skunky.

Why do so many stylist feel they’ll just do what they want? Aren’t we the ones paying for this?

Hair is extremely important. I too go ballistic over bad dye jobs. And I don’t just whine–I obsess, worry, flip out and howl in agony.

I go nuts over a bad hairjob too. I’m worse when I lose a stylist that does great things to my mane…three days later and I’m still in mourning.

He must have really screwed up because I like Kelly Clarkston’s hair in that picture.
Sorry, I have a few hair scare stories myself. Hair stylist sometimes just don’t listen. I had the best one and then she left me and went to Florida. WHAT!!

Nooo! Botched hair jobs are the worst! I don’t think that Kelly’s hair looks too terrible, and I’m sure that if you embraced it you really do look alright. š But I suppose you could say that about me when I tried to go blonde and ended up with hair the exact color of a new penny. Well, no. You couldn’t.

Hair issues are the worst. Don’t they know better. Bad hair days determine 90% of the whole day.
Sorry about this. I hope it was taken care of.

Sometimes, hairstylists just do what they want to do… in spite of what we ask. Glad to hear you sported your big girl panties over this one, it’s all you can do.

Okay, now I'm scared. I was thinking of doing highlights…but what if they don't turn out? Uggh!

I don't understand what the deal with stylists is!… They just seem determined to put the coppery IN and for some reason (even though no one above the age of 17 wants streaky hair), equally determined to be sure that you come out looking as unatural as possible.
I once spent an entire summer going from salon to salon, trying to convince someone to dye my hair dark and get rid of the copperiness(OMG – heaven forbid someone wants to go dark… in SUMMER)!
I've given up on salons because I always end up “fixing” it when I get home!
