Well my story in a nutshell is as follows........LONG blonde hair......starts falling out about 4 months after WLS........keeps falling out for ATLEAST another 2 months.....after about another 2 months my hair starts to look crazy......after a 2 more months I decide it's time to cut it......my regrowth of 1/2- 2" is causing me to look like a crack head!........Spur of the moment I go and have 6 inches cut off...........I hate the cut........so I decide to go in and have it cut REALLY short.....which I vowed preop never to do........Fantastic Sams does a hack job......about 3 weeks later I go in to a different salon and have them cut MORE off.......finally I have a style I like......During this process I slowly went darker and darker with the color until I am at a level 2......(one step down from BLACK).  I have had the shorter darker style since this summer and have really liked it.  As my hair has grown out I have started to style it as a curly short look.........

Today I went in and asked her to shape my hair and recoloer and add some bold highlights.  I went with a purpley/red.......I LOVE THIS CUT AND COLOR.......Ultimately I want Kelly Carlson's look (Kimber,Nip/Tuck)

So what I was getting at is this.......I have had a love hate relationship with my hair for several months.......but I think I've fallen back in love with it today.......I'm no longer losing my hair and It is much fuller again!  Here are some pics!  You too will find that loving relationship too, so don't sweet a little.........ok A LOT.......of hairloss........

Here is a link to my profile where I've posted a blog of all my Hair transformations........For those of you who just don't see me as a blonde!  :)

I think it looks incredible!  I can't imagine you as a blonde!

I think I am nearing the "end" of my hairloss period.  It was frustrating but overall not a huge deal....I haven't started the regrowth yet...that should be interesting!

Thank you Peyton!  Yes I was born a blonde.......and ugly dishwater blonde!  Once I colored my hair for the first time I was hooked!  I've always stayed in the realm of blonde but I decided I wanted a drastic change......people who have known me for YEARS don't even recognize me anymore.....LOL
