New Beginnings

I'm thinking I need to start trying new things. I want to grow as a person. I have an idea of things I want to do but I've decided to make this process spontaneous... that way I have no way in disappointing myself if I don't get a new thing accomplished. Only room for improvement!

So, to start small, I tried I new hairstyle recently. I got the idea out of a Taylor Swift book. It wasn't too clear, though, so I had to make up the idea of how exactly to execute the hairstyle. It didn't turn out like the picture, exactly, but I was darn proud of myself. I think it turned out pretty (and I've had the approval of 2 cosmetologists). Heh, heh.

if you can read this, you're cool! -AlyssaAlthough I was disappointed I was excuting this on my own head, I felt I still got a pretty good grasp on the general look of the style and how to do it to myself, rather than on someone else (which I imagine would have gone better). Also, in my defense, our hair color is very different (obviously), thus, highlighting different parts of the style, thus making it look different, thus... awh I got nothing else to say. "Thus" is a fun word! Did I use it properly?

I slept in curlers the night before- something I haven't done in a very long time.

The next morning, after taking the curlers out, I had my usual thought of, why did I do this? I look like Sherlie Temple. So I thought it would be the perfect time to try this much admired hairstyle of Mrs. Swift's.

The curls were spiraled away from my face. I took one by my ear and kept it in the tight spiral. I tacked it in place underneath by my neck to keep it in place. I mirrored this on the other side. I then did the same with a few more curls so about three or four were around my head and the two sides met with the vertical spirals. The rest of my hair was secured by a hair tie in a loose, messy, curly bun. Voila! My hair style. Pretty easy and stylish (if I do say so myself).
