I wasn't a big fan of the whole "Pinterest" thing when it first started.
That's all I needed . . . more cute things to make and try to keep up with . . .
more ways to compete and be out-done.
NO THANK YOU!
Then one day, I got sucked in . . .
and it all went down-hill from there.
I saw this really fun idea for girls hair.
Dye a piece of hair with Kool-Aid.
Fun, trendy, temporary . . . at the least the first two were mostly right.
I offered to be the "Kool" mom and let Carsyn and Belle try it.
They looked at me like I was nuts, and then jumped on board.
We picked RED. It would show up so cute in their blonde hair . . .
that was already sun and chlorine damaged.
We followed the instructions word for word.
We soaked the ends of their pony-tails for 5 minutes.
It looked so cute - and was sure to wash out within two weeks!
So, we did Camryn's later that afternoon. She REALLY likes blue.
Blue would be really pretty in blonde hair too. And it would wash out pretty quick as well.
Are you sensing the sarcasm yet???
This is Camryn's hair - 2 months later.
Not so cute anymore, not washing out . . . just fading to a nice . . . greenish color?
"Kool" mom + Kool-Aid = 6 inches of hair being cut off one daughter's hair,
and 4 inches being cut off the other's.
And one daughter that was too smart to let her mom try it on her in the first place!
