Perky Frustration

So I recently got my hair cut (a good 6 inches off - woo!) and colored to what the hairstylist thought was my natural color.  A few washes later and it's slowly fading closer to what I thought it would be.  The cut is longer in the front, short in the back and is supposed to curl under all around.  However, my hair disagrees with this cut.  I actually had a conversation with my hair this morning.

ME:  No, you are supposed to curl under.  No frizzies and curl UNDER.

HAIR:  I will not do as you ask.  I will pretend to curl under but frizz.  And there will be a strange bump in that one area you cannot reach well.

ME:  Fine, do a little odd curling.  Like what we did the other day.  See?  This is still cute.

I am curled under on the right but am undecided on the left.

HAIR:  Did you not notice that somehow in the 2 weeks since you took that picture, I have grown 2 inches?

Wait, weren't you curling just under my chin last week?
ME:  How did you do that?

HAIR:  I naturally work to make your hair look as perky as possible.  It is your curse.  Do not try to thwart me.   Or this will happen!

Hmmm..is the knife in the background going to help me or change to the dark side? (aka brunette)
HAIR:  You wanted curl under?  Congrats - ONE section will curl under.  MUHAHAHA.  Also, that angle makes it look like your hair is receding on one side of your part.

ME:  FAIL.  :(

  1. Conversations with your hair, huh? I just give my hair the cold shoulder. Your hair is better behaved than mine. Maybe I should try your method. :)

  2. Jana, I've never seen a hair out of place on you. Maybe the cold shoulder works!
