Caramel Highlights
Tough to tell from the late night Photo Booth pic, but we're Preening for the Emmys!
(yet still eating late at night for the Emmys� clearly I still have some kind of self-thwarting mechanism going�)
Today I went to a place called in Burbank. Tiny hole-in-the-wall, decked out in 1950′s Pink Lady kitsch with a skulls-and-roses edge, and AWESOME. I found the place on , where the raves are gorgeously overwhelming.
Tuesdays are slow there; Miss M and I were the only ones in the shop. I've had my hair cut recently, so Jules just did my base color and highlights, while Miss M got to sit in a chair right next to me and watch several episodes of Phineas and Ferb on the iPad.
Jules was amazing � took the time to talk to me and figure out exactly what I wanted, and gave great advice. She mixed the perfect colors, and the whole process of applying them, letting them soak in, then washing and drying everything out took about an hour and fifteen minutes. When it was done� fabulous base color and caramel highlights!
L.A. peeps take note: the whole thing only cost around $70! It was $90, but you get 20% off when you mention Yelp � such a bargain!
Tomorrow I listen to everyone's advice and pick up the green dress, then go to a tailor and beg her to make any needed adjustments in the bodice before Friday.
I think tomorrow is also brow waxing day, which begs the question� are you a waxer, a plucker, or au naturale?
Also, check out the for the Emmys. I am so not above geeking out on people, and I'm going through the list to see who might bring out the not-so-hidden dorky fan in me. Today I'm thinking about Martin Short, nominated for his work on The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That. I'm thinking I want to ask him if he has a plethora of pinatas, which refers to one of my favorite lines from Three Amigos one of the best dumb movies ever.
I'm open to other geek-out suggestions. See anyone else I need to find and make an idiot of myself over? Let me know � I'm on it!
