April Fool's

 Well it's April Fool's Day!  Hope you don't get pranked.

I went to the hairdresser's for a haircut a few weeks ago only to discover that Rose had retired this past January.  Here is an old post where I mentioned Rose, the hairdresser.  She might have turned at least 80 and wisely decided it was time to retire.  A nice lady named Vana cut my hair this time and I liked her, she did a great job.  Vana has a 5 year old son.  She cut hair in Iran for 12 years before she came to Canada.  She told me that a darker hair dye does not necessarily hide the grey better as when it comes in, the contrast is very noticeable.  Hmm.  Maybe I can move to a lighter shade.  

In any case daughter L has been cutting my hair and her baby will be due in months so I will be seeing Vana again for sure.

  1. Yea, I wonder about covering my gray. I hate the roots when it grows out, but am stunned at the 75% of stars who intentionally show roots. I guess it's in style now? Linda in Kansas

  2. No fooling. It's hard to find a good hairdresser after you've had such a good rapport with your previous hairdresser. Good for you.

    Happy April Fools' Day.

  5. But why dye the hair? Grey can look beautiful, besides, the dyes are all chemicals that you don't need.

  7. I'm not sure light hair dye covers all that much better-sorry to say. I still do it though and I guess you could say instead of salt and pepper looking it's very salt and salt. OK, that was not a very good joke. Have a super start to April!

  8. I simply think of the gray in my hair as natural highlights - LOL! Great you found someone you like to cut your hair, Christine.

  13. Turning 84 on May 1st, so I'm "embracing" my grey. HaHa. I've never colored my hair...before grey I was a dark alburn redhead.
    It's great to find someone who can really do a nice cutting job. I found a gal named Maria that I love what she can do for me!!

  16. Retiring at eighty is great and inspiring as it as it’s hard to see women of that age working
    Best wishes to your daughter dear friend
