More on hair

As much as we all like to deny it, I think most of us are terrible at keeping what's on the inside from showing on our outside. The times I have been the most happy, authentic and emotionally secure I have also physically been the most natural and healthy and content with my visible body.
But as an opposite, I look at those days of dying my hair blonde, neon orange, teal...etc. I was such a mess on the inside. So back and forth about what I was telling myself was good for me. All this artificiality on the outside had to be a manifestation of the madness, lack of satisfaction and immaturity with which I handled my life situations. Also, the asymmetrical haircut? Imbalance. Align? Letting anyone and everyone decide my destiny for me because I didn't want to believe I had a say in my own personal direction. Pixie? Let me restart my life as a baby, please.

But I do 100% believe that we ought to be able to use our hair to express playfulness and creativity! My baby bangs suit me so well...in my opinion. Liz, friendie who does my hair, always mentions how funny it is that I prefer to have my bangs cut so I look like a child that stole her moms scissors ;)  I'm such a mix of young and old. Little kid bangs paired with an elderly woman's day dress are the perfect expression of what's always been on the inside uh my human skin.
