So you think we are crazy?
Aunie at Bye, Bye Beehive went 365 days with no product (other than dry shampoo and some texturizing moose), no heat styling, no dying of her hair at all. She came up with adorable no-heat styles and gained some beautiful, healthy, long hair. She gained 6+ inches of new growth. That was after 4 trims during the year!
As you saw in the About Bobbie post, I have always had either big "Southern" fried blonde hair, or short hair. I envied the other girls with long, beautiful locks. I thought because I was so addicted to styling and coloring my hair that it would be impossible for me to achieve. Until I came across her blog.
See, I am an all or nothing gal. I go in full force or do nothing at all. In order for my hair dreams to come true, I have to go drastic. I do best cutting myself off (from food if I'm dieting, it's absolutely no cheating or I fail, same thing with exercise, work, anything I set my mind to. I am really Type A) and getting fast results, which in turn motivate me to keep going.
I haven't always been like this. I realized after long bouts of depression and 25 years, that one of the ways I can feel less out of control is to take super control over the things I have power over. I am the only one who can keep my house clean like I like it. I really enjoy being in control and doing things well. I wish I was like that my whole life. I find life much easier now. It could also be because I have a great husband and daughter and family/friends!
Thanks for reading!!!
