Glittery and Unicorn-ish Results

Well, I annoyed my husband again this weekend. It takes him a while to adjust to my hair color changes, and just as he got used to the blonde, i moved on to Rose Gold. It’s a misleading name, in my opinion. It looks more purplish/mauve than beautiful golden rose, but whatevs. It played well with my edgy trend experiment.
 
First was the glitter roots. I think we can all agree that was a tremendous success. I love it, honestly. Plus, beauty hack! Are your roots showing and your hair stylist can’t fit you in? No worries, just slather on hair gel, then sprinkle some glitter on those ugly dark roots and voila! It’s covered and you’ve got a great conversation starter. (Unless you’re like the good, reserved people of Ave Maria. Then, you’ll just get long stares but no comments. I paraded through Publix today and everyone politely acted like I hadn’t lost my mind. Disappointing really)
 
 
Moving on. Next was the unicorn eyes. Have I mentioned I have the artistic skill of a sugared-up three year old? I used black, teal, and purple eyeliner, and a couple gems. Meanwhile, the awesome gold eyeliner I specifically purchased for this project sat forgotten until I was already done. At that point, why mess with perfection?


Finally, lollipop lips. This one was ridiculous. It was basically putting on lipstick and gloss, then smearing it around outside your lips like you’re enjoying a lollipop. I could go another direction with that, but will refrain. Let’s just say it looked stupid and I give it a solid thumbs down.

Once my fabulous look was complete, I had to send a picture to Micah, who was at his dad’s for the weekend. I told him he could have had this Mom at his field trip. He wasn’t impressed.
 
My other sons were a little more accepting- Cayden said I looked pretty but crazy, and Ezra rubbed off some of my glitter and tried to put it on his own hair. Imitation is the highest form of flattery, right?
 
Maybe this will be my Valentine’s Day going out look....

Happy Monday!!

With Love,
Susanne
