My British Hair

I got my hair highlighted today for the first time in about four years (if not more). Since having Crumpet, I have kept my beauty routine as simple as possible. My semi-regular haircuts are about as extravagant as it gets these days. I have managed to fit in a few eyebrow waxings and even a couple of pedicures, but that feels like a real luxury now. So today was a treat. After years of neglect, I finally put some life back into my hair.

"It just feels so dull. My hair used to be so much lighter, naturally," I mused to my hairdresser. "I guess that was due to all the sunshine where I'm from."

"Face it," she replied. "Your hair has become British." How right she was.

I think she has explained a lot about my hair in that sentence.

It will be the opposite for me. Our winters run from October/November through April/May. I hate snow, I hate the cold and I am never outside. When I visit England, I can't seem to say indoors no matter if it's March or December.
