That's Just Perky.

I have been looking at getting a haircut. Not just a Supercuts one, either. I'm hoping for a big girl haircut that is flattering. I have enough hair for 5 people. It's long, wavy and thick. I can't even put my hair in a ponytail because it gives me a headache. My hair weighs too much and pulls at my temporals. Not good.

I have been looking into this one place http://www.ateliersalon.com/ . Apparently, they take into consideration the shape of your face and texture of your hair and cut accordingly. Is this tru? Is it really worth the $50-75? I am wiling to try it out. I know, if I go, I will have to prepare myself mentally to stand up to beauty pressure.

I have never had a manicure or a pedicure, paid for a facial, paid for hair removal, bleached my moustache nor shaped/waxed my eyebrows. This doesn't mean I am a hideous beast. I feel there's no need to spend all that money if you don't have to do it. I do my own foot soaks and massage my feet with this amazing lotion; Enrichments Reflexology Foot Creme Vanilla Mint. Run out and get some it is spectacular!!! The hair issue.... a lot of the beauty standards are pounding into us. Magazines, tv and men tell us what we're supposed to look like. I just don't buy it all.

Besides, going without all these beauty necessities has never hurt my dating life. I doubt it'll improve it either. I have more than enough on my plate. When I walk into Atelier I plan on simply getting a cut. I might walk out with a bottle of gel, but if I wanted a facial, I would have planned in advance. Thanx, but no thanx. Now if you were clamoring all around me trying to sell me on getting perky tits while I have my hair cut, I'd be all over that. The Girls could use a little lift.
