As a new school year is approaching, girls, including myself, are beginning to head to their hairdresser for a fresh cut and color before the school year begins. For me entering my senior year of college, I have decided I want to do something a little different with my hair even if it is just to go a few shades lighter with my color. Although a new hair cut and color represents a fresh start to a new school year there are definitely some mixed emotions and anxieties before walking into the hair salon.
It is expected that when you are in the hair salon that you are going to chit chat and make small talk with your hairdresser the whole time, but there are those girls that dread going just because all of the small talk they are going to have to make with the hairdresser.
There is the indecisiveness that comes before going to the hairdresser. Am I going to keep my color or go brunette? How about ombre? I think I should cut it, but how short? How do I keep it short without looking like a soccer mom?
There is the excitement once you decide what you think you want done to your hair for the new fresh change in your life!
The excitement goes away the minute you sit in that chair and the anxiety hits that you might have made a mistake and that your new hair cut and color could look terrible. This is about the time you begin to contemplate shaving your head as all the worst possible scenarios run through your mind.
Once your hairdresser finishes and the final product is revealed, your anxiety goes away because you love your new do and cannot wait to show it to everyone.
