I wont pay for it but I wont tell them no either.Brandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01826639572988755402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692904496256051846.post-18877385945228665142009-07-16T10:00:16.078-04:002009-07-16T10:00:16.078-04:00Very cool.

When I was in 6th grade, I decided I w...VERY cool!<br /><br />When I was in 6th grade, I decided I wanted a mohawk. So my Mom made an appointment with Richard, our long-trusted hairdresser. When we got there, he shampooed me, and sat me in the chair. He said, "so, darling, I hear we're doing a mohawk today. Is that what we're thinking?" And I said, "YES. I think they are SO COOL." He said, "oh, yes, darling, they ARE. VERY cool. I do have another style I want to tell you about, though, if you're open to it. It's super COOL, and I thought of you as soon as I learned how to do it. Have you seen Olivia Newton John's video for "Physical?" And I was like, "Omigod, YES! Olivia is my FAVORITE! I *LOVE* her!" "Well, I think her cute new haircut would be FANTASTIC on you. Have you ever thought about something like Olivia's hair?" "Well, no... but now that you mention it, I really like it... and I could wear a headband?" And Richard said, "ooooh, yes, darling, I am SURE your mom would let you get a headband or two, wouldn't you, Marjorie?" And winked at Mom. And Mom gushed, "oh, YES, darling, I think a headband would be FABULOUS on you. So if you decide to do The Olivia, headbands would be okay with me." So I said, "okay! Let's do The Olivia!" And so he did. Cut about 15 inches off of my hair to do it.<br /><br />On the way home, Mom said, "sugah, I know you really wanted a Mohawk, and I've been thinking of some other ways you can show your *unique* taste. How 'bout we dye your basketball shoes purple when we get home?" And I squealed. And we did. And my white canvas Pro-Keds turned purple.<br /><br />Looking back, I totally love how my mom called my bluff. She & Richard knew exactly what would change my mind, but they let me think it was my idea. I hope to be as cool when I'm a mom.<br /><br />Happy hairdo to Katie!<br /><br />Love,<br />kimmyKimmyDarlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13880907352440468443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692904496256051846.post-79108034768346595262009-07-15T21:39:30.085-04:002009-07-15T21:39:30.085-04:00When I was in 8th grade I dyed my hair pink.
