A vist to the hairdresser

Yesterday, Georgio did my hair for Willow's ball (see sidebar), and I do mean did. Since my hair is grey, this brunette hair dye is rather startling although there was a time when my hair was this dark. Also, my hair is curly and wiry so he had to soak it in all sorts of chemicals to make it straight.

Since my theme for the ball is "Flapper" this hairdo will do just fine. Of course after the ball I will let the dye die out and will be walking around half grey and half brunette for awhile, but what the hey. Unfortunately I do not look as young as this model, my wrinkles remain. I hope I don't scare off my escorts.

Very stylish for the ball, I love it.

You will never scare off anyone! I love this theme for you - it suits you well (pun totally intended). As long as the half white/half dark doesn't turn you into Cruela deVille all is well!

This is getting very exciting!

Good choice...exotic for evening and cute for day. Remember this is virtual...no wrinkles...no outgrowth roots! I'm thin and curvy as I've never been and look at me wearing high high heels! This is fun!

Robin said...

Perfect "do" for YOU! There is something very "Louise Brooks" about you! Also, a bit Zelda Fitzgerald.....but remember, no jumping into fountains!

You are a "Fabulous Flapper"! Don't forget some long, dangling earrings to enhance your new "Bob"!

Love,

♥ Robin ♥

I can hardly wait to see you fully costumed for this fabulous ball!
You will be the femme fatalle. (however that is spelt?)
When do you step out?
Has HE called to arrange a limo?
Did they have limo's in that era?
Have fun!

This is so much fun Suki. Sometimes the preparations are as much fun as the event.

You will be the belle of the ball! I love the shoes on your sidebar. I think that hairdo will suit you very well. It's so classic...and classy!!

How exciting!
