After my dubious experience at the Aveda Institute a few weeks ago to get my nails and toes done, I decided I’d go the opposite extreme and visit one of the highest of the high end salons in Charlotte to get my hair back in shape. It’s been 5 months since my last cut and color, and while it still looked fine mostly, I thought it would be a nice picker-upper.
Let me just say that normally, this is one of my most cherished splurges. I love love love sitting in a chair in a good salon being fussed over by pretty girls offering wine or hot tea, having my hair washed by someone else with intensely aromatic shampoo and conditioner, then being able to read an entire issue of Vogue or some other high brow fashion and beauty mag. It’s an ego thing - I’m sure of it.
And this time was no different, the time and money at the salon was well spent - that day - but since I’ve had 2 weeks to get used to the results, I am less than thrilled with my all-over tri-colored highlights and my cut that doesn‘t look any different from how I walked through the door except now my hair doesn‘t frame my face as well as it did prior to the cut. I wish they could bottle the experience, so whenever I needed a pick-me-up I could spread it out a little more.
