I Just Made Forty Bucks!
Well... that's not 100% true. But I did just SAVE ~$40 by cutting my own kids' hair this afternoon. I've been doing so since they were one, and despite having a semi-imperfect cut, with random strands and patches of hair sticking out at times, I think it's been a success so far. Hey, and isn't tassled/bed head 'in' anyway? So far my kids haven't complained, and no one has said 'Eewww, what's wrong with your child's hair?'.
They're 3 now, so I feel like I'm getting the hang of it, plus... they're only three! They'd look cute even if I accidently gave them a hardcore mullet (which has happened!), so that ideology is always nice to fall back on.
Now I just need to get my OWN hair cut/colored for under ~$150! Aye, aye, aye! I really want to figure that one out, or at least find some way to feel okay spending that kinda money on hair. It's a conundrum I tell ya! Any suggestions?

As for the second part (our own hair), I have no advice. This is why I have stuck with long and straight in and out of style all these decades...my one venture out was an ill-fated Dorothy Hamill oh so long ago!
Dorothy Hamill- awesome!
When you come to LA you can have my Korean hairdresser cut, color and blow dry for 80 bucks! Since I don't speak korean, I just show her the celebrity from Star magazine that I most want my haircut to emulate. Then she does the rest!
