I am my hair.

This year, I want to talk about more than just makeup a bit more so I thought one thing I wanted to start  doing was hair posts. Especially because since I started this blog I have only did one hair related post.  But before I start doing them I thought I would just do a  quick post about what kind of hair I have and what I usually do with it and all that jazz.

I have really long hair.  It's not Guinness World Record holder long but it is long.  This is for a couple of reasons, the main one being that's just the way I like it.  I sometimes, very rarely, get the urge to get my hair cut shorter but it's always short lived and I know if I did, I would have bought extensions before I even got home from the hairdressers.

Lengthhh of ma hurr.

Length of it now and it's never shorter than this.

Which brings me on to the second kind of almost reason my hair is the way it is.  I have a fear of the hairdressers.  See the way some people have anxiety about going to the doctors or the dentists?  That's the way I feel about the hairdressers.  I would honestly rather have to go for root canal treatment than go for a haircut.  I DO get it cut but it is honestly about once a year and usually under duress.  

When the red was washing out like 2 or 3 years ago

 I've had really really subtle highlights when I was about 13 and after that I didn't do much.  I've had it dyed a really deep red and plum and deep blue but it's never really been properly bleached until a couple of months ago when I got blonde highlights in.  I really liked it but I just can't be bothered keeping it up as it means continuous trips to the demon's workplace.

What it looks like now.

So I think the next thing that I'll be trying is ombre or dip dye.  It might be "out" to some people but it's perfect for someone who doesn't really want a lot of upkeep or effort.  The only thing is that I'll need to try and dye over my current hair with a brown dye to get rid of the highlights and then ombre the bottoms - all by myself -eeeeek!

As for styling my hair, it's usually up in a messy bun - thank god for whoever made this hair do okay.  If it's done, my hair's normally straight since my hair is naturally straight and I've never found a way to make it hold a curl without looking like Shirley Temple so if anyone has any advice please leave it below!

So any hairstyles I do are dead easy and don't require a lot of skill so that's probably the types of posts I'll be doing.

This has turned out quite a bit longer than I thought haha 5 bonus points if you read all this!
