June 6, 2008 | hair, me me me

I have pretty hair. It’s long, down to the middle of my back and when I blow it out, it’s shiny and super straight. People tell me all the time how pretty it is and they like to touch it, even if they don’t know me. That kind of freaks me out. Anyway, one of my favorite things is to go to the salon because I always get told how gorgeous it is. Confidence booster! I also hate going to the salon because I’m always afraid it will get butchered! I rarely go get haircuts because of that reason, plus as a nanny, my long hair is always up in a bun. Babies and long, styled hair, don’t mix. I was incredibly overdue though, my last cut was in December.

Yesterday I made my trek after work to Urban Lift here in Chicago and $60 later (tip included), Mary hooked me up. She cleaned up my layers, took about two inches off and gave me some bangs. She was lovely and I highly recommend her if you are in need of some hair therapy! She also said if I need anything to call and email her and she would gladly talk me through any hair disasters that might sneak attack me. Plus, PLUS, free bang trims whenever I need them. I think I’ve found my hair guru here, people. She is that good.

I know I just wrote a whole entry about my hair but whatever, I can have one thing I’m vain about! So yes, love my hair.

Since some of you asked via twitter, I’m adding a picture. I should have taken it yesterday when my hair was blown out by Mary because I will never get it to look as good! I’m at work and it’s been up in a bun since I got out the shower so sorry for the messy waves, but you can see my bangs. Also, I don’t have time to pose and take 500 pictures until I get a incredibly flattering one, haha, so take it or leave it!

I’ll get a non-hot mess one up eventually.

Gorgeous, alright! Dang it, I wish mine would grow out already!

Ohh! I love it! And you do have gorgeous hair- the bangs look great =)

So super hot!

yay! i got my layers cleaned up and a new dye job yesterday too! i love my stylist. she’s awesome. your’s looks sooo cute!

Very pretty! You’re lucky to belong to the >1% of the female population who loves their hair.

Free bang trims? That’s a dream I could only…dream…of.

Too cute! I love the way it falls- and the messy waves.

I’m jealous of the waves! My hair just hangs there…

Your hair is so cute! Love it. And it looks great all wavy like that… “Messy” nothin’. You are cute.

it’s ok to write an entire blog about your hair. (i did it, too. shhh…)

looks good!

Love it! You’re making me miss my long hair.

Oh! I love it!

oo the bangs are cute!

LOVE it. I need mine cut before we leave for FL!

SO pretty!! I wish my hair would get super straight and shiny. It’s always so difficult! And I reallyyyy love the bangs

Oh cute cute cuteness!

oh very cute. your hair looks so thick, i’m jealous, haha.

Love the bangs!

I want your hair. Give it.

Work it girl!

That may have been the girliest comment I’ve ever left.

I love getting my hair cut! It always looks so good until I wash it

It looks beautiful! I do have a bit of hair envy:)

The bangs are perfect.

hehe, i have a similar attachment to my long hair so i totally understand how wonderful it is to find a great hair stylist!

your hair is really pretty!

$60? I am there in August!

Your hair looks gorgeous.

DIVA!!!!!! work it jamie, work it.

love it.

I’m in the process of growing my hair out and yours looks great!

Oh! How Lovely! (hehehe… get it?)

wow, you weren’t kidding about having gorgeous hair! HOT!

The new cut is tres hot! I have a serious soft spot for bangs!

haha its ok that u wrote a whole post about your hair..i say if you got, u should flaunt it!

Uhm. It’s awesome. I LOVES it

Your first paragraph was exactly like how I am! Strangers in public restrooms (who sometimes haven’t washed their hands yet! Ew!) will come up and tell me how pretty my hair is. And your new haircut is exactly like the one I want to get! Even with Clay Aiken bangs. Thanks for giving me another picture to show a stylist!

I love it! You look so good!

I would love to have long hair. Mine gets just past my shoulders and simply stops. Love yours!

Love the new hair cut! Perfect for summer. My hair never looks as good as when my girl does it, no matter how hard I try.

Super cute! you and i share bits of the same soul. I love getting my hair done. I look forward to it for months. I only go to one stylist (also named Mary) and I follow her from salon to salon, wherever she goes, i go. I refuse to go anywhere else for fear of someone doing something horrible to it!

Yay! It looks gorgeous! And I want my hair to look like that — that’s why I am attempting to grow it out!

The bangs were a good call! I wish that my hair looked good when it’s long. It’s SO think that it gets terribly heavy and puffy when it goes past my shoulders. Boo.

I love your hair! AND you are beautiful!

ohhh, you DO have gorgeous hair. My dream hair : )

Pretty! I want to get nicer bangs now.

(That’s what she said).

You’re so hot.

nice! i live in chicago, too. maybe i’ll check urban lift out!

looks gorgeous! urban lift isn’t too far from my new apartment – i may need to go there for my next cut (well, after the one i have scheduled for next week).

Very pretty! I’m thinking of cutting my hair, but really short.

very lovely! all women should have at least one thing they are totally vain about.

I’m in desperate need of a hair makeover, but since it explodes when it’s even remotely short or near the shoulders, I need to grow it out FIRST. Sigh. One day it’ll look decent. And one day I’ll own a Chi straightener.

oh i’m so jealous – i always look like i’m in bon jovi video

Dude. I LOVE your hair. That’s not messy. It’s sexily disheveled.

Pretty haircut! I love the layers!

Very cute.

Pretty hair, but why do you look so sad? Haha!

Hair cuts are the best. I love going to the salon.

Sounds like Mary is a good hair stylist too. I will need to find one when I move up there. Maybe Mary’s my gal.

Your haircut does look pretty awesome.

VERY jealous – that’s some good hair you’ve got going on. Nice work on the bangs too. Although where I come from we call that a “fringe”!

So cute. I’m green with envy. You’re lucky.

i want your bangs! seriously, i can never get mine to cooperate and stay on one side like that. GORGEOUS!! xoxox

I hate how I can never get my hair to look as good as it does when I get it cut and styled at the salon.

The bangs are great!

LOVE.
