 i am really pissed. i just yelled at my teenage daughter that no i am not dying her hair black. my hair is colorsilk blue black and it has been most of my life, save for the year i spent in beauty school and it was reddish brown with strawberry blonde highlites and it was cut in every style from bob to wedge to a teased punk do that stood at  least 3 inches high so yes i know all about the teen need to be different and experiment and find out who you are. but when my kid who on a whim decided she wanted her hair dyed black because she passed her best friend from fourth grade as we were leaving our little towns fair, and her hair is black i had to roll my eyes. i mean wasn't she there when i just bleached the black out of my best friends daughters hair a few months ago only to put some blah brown on it friday night. this kid like my daughter had beautiful hair until she went it dyed it black, then she went back to blonde after eight hours of kitchen beautyshop at my apartment this summer. she had to wait a week with a mottled strawberry blonde hair until her poor mother who had spent about 50 bucks already took her to a shop who by the way said i did a good job, and spent a few big bucks more to get it to a little blonder level, i warned her that the damage from all of these processes could leave her hair broken, dry brittle and maybe even fall out, and friday she had the nerve to go back to an iced cappucino brown. yes i did it for her and i told her as i did if she was unhappy with the results, tooo bad for her i would never touch her hair again.


now my girl who is dresden skinned and beautiful doesn't understand why i wont just jump up right this minute and dye her reddish brown hair black today right this freaking minute... ugh because i don't want to! isn't it bad enough that i am getting ready to cut my sisters hair in a few.... golly i might as well go and reinstate my license ya know and do my families and friends hair for a living oh yeah thats right they dont freaking pay me!!!!!! although cutting my girls hair and my own over the last 20 years has saved me a bundle, but this black dye thing. it is just something i dont want to do right now.... i was ready to cave and say next weekend, but then she put  the dagger into my heart...."its not like i ask for much mom" no i just went and spent a good part of my gas money for work on some converse tennies that yes she was in dire need of, but what the hell gives her the right to guilt me!!! i haven't bought a new bra or underwear in a while and trust me i am due.


man i just dont think i will be making anyone happy today! my sister in law watched in shock, as i yelled at her and my daughter in her teen angst pain in the ass way stood out of my site and mouthed retorts quietly under her breath while i was yelling at her telling her I WILL NOT DYE YOUR HAIR BLACK FOR YOU TODAY......" HULLOOOOOOO KEY WORD TODAY!!!!!! AND THEN SHE SAID I NEVER, I REPEAT NEVER DOOO ANYTHING SHE WANTS.. so  yes yes i will let her be right and never dye her hair black. at least this week.....

Lord knows we've all been there before. Mama's are always making sacrifices, whether it be financially, physically, mentally, emotionally, we give them our all. But remember our teen years, can't help to scold them now, when we were once just like that, wild & rebellious. I'm sure she didn't mean what she said. She was just having one of those terrible two temper tantrums, cuz she didn't get her way. Just gotta brush it off mama. By the sounds of it, you seem like your overworked. Take it easy!
