change is welcome here

^^^ new hair! ^^^

on friday, after what felt like a never-ending week,

i took an impromptu trip to gene juarez.

this in and of itself was a change for me as i typically get my hair trimmed at supercuts 

(for twelve dollars).

but i wanted something fancy to try to cheer myself up.

gene juarez did the trick!

i received new layers and removed my nasty dead ends (as seen in photo number one).

i also wanted to try some trendy side bangs.

i thought i loved them!

on day number one of styling the side bangs myself,

i knew they had to go...

grease-ridden, hanging in my eyes, too short to be pinned to the side - 

no, thank you.

thus i went back to gene juarez for a complimentary bang trim.

i walked out with a new and shorter fringe (as seen in the second photo)!

a big and welcome change around here.

what do you think?

hope you had a lovely weekend.

xoxo.
